No one has called for a ban either, but you've not even read the post have you. The technique involved is incredibly dangerous and malicious. Your reaction is entirely because it was on St Helens player and you like the fact Paasi might have to retire as it helps your team.
If those two tackles were by Morgan Knowles, Twitter would have melted and it would be a very different story.
You're being ridiculous.
"Player makes legitimate initial contact with upper thigh of opponent who is moving forward."
He's tackled him legitimately around the legs. It was a perfectly executed tackle to take down a very big man charging at the line.
Nobody likes players to get hurt but you can't punish good defense just because an injury occurs.
Huge over reaction from some, correct outcome from the disciplinary.
