Exactly and if my memory serves me right didn't he carry on with the game after a bit of attention. RFL need to be more consistent

Intent can be as bad as actually damaging someone. That little scrote from Wigan wasn't injured when Howell polished his teeth with his elbow-other than hurting himself by diving at the floor like a bloody actor

And then jumping straight back up to push Howell's head into the ground!

No charge for that of course.

Agreed.........both of the brothers grim should have beem up before the Colf Club Committee........ where they would have been asked how their mother was keeping.
What puzzles me is that the Howell ncident was judged on video evidence....so how did they not see the knee and forearm incident less that 5 seconds after the initial "tackle"?

No doubt we will be treated to another episode of Eddie and Stevo swooning over the magic of Sam Tomkins this evening, how he is the best player ever, Englands saviour, blah blah blah .......terrific think I will put the TV on mute tonight.

2 games (on Sky) running Joel Tompkins has reacted to his brother being tackled hard....odd in this physical sport....both times well after the whistle had gone and game stopped....yet neither time was he placed on report or sin-binned...can't work it out!! Don't the referee's have regular meetings?? Surely they need to be consistent with all players...really not hard at all to manage....or does their meeting involve a couple of pints and a pie at the local pub?!!
