How many times have you watched it? I’ve no idea how he’s not snapped his neck or back in two. Powell isn’t a grubby player but that tackle alone sums up how we get it wrong time and again when it comes to aggression.

I watch RL for aggression and want that from Wigan. Some of the best moments I've seen are biff based. It's what I want to see.

Are you taking the mickey? How is what Powell did “biff”?

Ferres got a 6 game ban for an identical crusher tackle on Gildart a few years ago.

It's poop housing I agree.

If Powell gets a 6 match ban and we somehow beat Saints in the semi, he’ll still be banned for the CC final. Sheer stupidity and moment of madness could cost him big.

Willy Isa would have been proud of that tackle ....

As do I. There was plenty of it in that game too but you’re on the wind up if you think that’s biff or anything other than cowardly.

Is that ironic with your username?

I'll admit that I'm a product of my generation. Guys like Skerrett and Cowie when I was growing up were legends. You knew at the game they'd get into the opposition players. Late and high shots, biff and general poop housing.

Nickle would do the same and I'd love to see how the game would play out when he did.

hopefully O Neill gets some game time and takes Powell spot going forward, or young Forber

Oh bore off. Doesn't post in months and comes on to post this BS.

Red card in a derby for that? What has this game become?

I'll make sure everyone consults you on when they're allowed to post and what they're allowed to post on given how upset it seems to have made you.

The length of ban he'll get will show it should have been red - and was completely unnecessary. Brainless.

should have been red but got yellow which the ref has given at full speed, looks terrible slowed down, seen it before, hell get a good ban and rightly so
