Let’s not mix up me criticising LMS here with me doing anything other than condemning the tackle but LMS runs in because he’s a grade A tit and he does things like that every week.

Poor tackle though and he’ll get some time sat down.

I dont think LMS threw a punch though, he just got Powell by the scruff of the neck and aggressively pushed him away. The only punching with the handbag fray afterwards I think was Partington but he failed to connect, Bateman also got involved because he's always there for the afters.

We certainly won’t ever get through a game LMS is involved in without a few handbags.

Anyway it’s not the point I guess, we all know he’s a plank and me criticising him takes away from the issue, which was the tackle.

There's no argument here. Everyone (bar 1 person for some inexplicable reason) thinks Powell deserves the ban that is undoubtedly coming his way.

On LMS, I too would be disappointed if our players didn't run in after a tackle like that. However that doesn't change the fact that it's supposed to be a clampdown issue with a no tolerance policy. He should have gone. Simple as that. Moore was poor yesterday on all issues including both being discussed here.

Powell will be be banned (rightly so) for Monday, the disciplinary panel meet either today or tomorrow.

LMS is more of a drama queen and a gobby wind up merchant, I didn't mind the reaction of him with Powell, it was a bad one by Powell, we also get an angry reaction from Roby which is quite unusual for him.

Sky said after the game that any player cited would be eligible for Monday and will only be dealt with on Tuesday.

Roby shows his class there and his reaction was all that was needed. When a player like that is angry it says everything. LMS should’ve been a footballer.

Banned or not, play O'Neil anyway, going to be very disappointed if Shorrocks gets the 9 jersey for the next 6 weeks

I think if Leuluai hadn't picked up an injury we might've seen Cust there.

For some reason O'Neill doesn't seem favoured at all!

Grade E, probably misses the semi final
