It was clearly Senior on Roby, hope he's cited and banned, it must be coached into the Rhinos, and they just don't show any respect for the officials, they just won't accept any decisions,

To be fair, I doubt it is coached and we have just had Maurie banned a game for a similar offence.

As long as the Leeds player(s) are punished the same, then we have consistency and this sort of tackle can be removed from the game.

there was a bit of 'niggle' and a bit of dirty play from both teams,

however the roby injury didnt come from anything like that, it happened before he even hit the ground, he had his arm around the 2nd tackler who was hit by the third tackler which meant it went behind him and pushed it the wrong way

As an aside, apparently, after the Gilmour and Smith scuffle, Gilmour is heard to mention he may have been bitten. If this is true, this needs to be looked at. (And Smith deserved the pasteing, dished out).

you can also hear him being accused of 'attacking the eyes' which would be unforgivable frankly and if true should be him banned for the rest of the season, i dont know if it was though as i didnt see it myself

and you see the pushing away smith did 10 times a game, had it not been so soon after the maurie incident i doubt Gilmour would have reacted, he lost his cool a little

If you remember last season, there was a furor surrounding Clint Newtons chicken wing tackle, he was found guilty of something like, a tackle not in keeping with the spirit of the game, he personally appeared at Red Hall, and told them that the technique had been coached to him in Aus, no ban but £300 fine.
