he's too slow to get to the disciplinary meeting in time.

This greatly amuses me.

Maybe Rush should sign the sky cameraman (whose name I don't remember) as he seemed quick enough to catch up with our guys after they scored a try, and they did mention he was a saints fan.

What I don't get is why saints employed sh*thouse tactics against us when they don't against the other teams clearly it doesn't work for them...

thats because we were 3 times quicker to the tackle, 3 times quicker to the try line and obviously 3 times quicker to getting the punches in.........

They lost the game, they lost the collision, they lost the play ball and they lost the fight.

I'm not surprised it came to this tbh. If you look back at the other two games with Saints this season they've tried to rile Hock and get him sent off and again yesterday, knowing they were on the end of a hiding they did the same. They aren't good enough to beat us and knowing that they resort to s*ithouse tactics. Not surprised at all.

Although, the fact that LMS isn't up in front of the panel is bemusing me somewhat.

I agree.

Also, and I have asked this question on the VT; Hock got whacked in the first half.

Hence his bloody nose.

It would be interesting to know who did that ?

Every cloud has a silver lining, and I hope this one does. Hock, Mossop and Tuson will have a week or two off and it will hopefully keep them that little bit fresher come the business end of the season.

Gives some of the younger lads a chance to step up and gain valuable experience. Leed's and Catalan are going to be 2 tough games for us.

Confirmed that Mossop has taken the early guilty plea, so just the one game out. http://www.wiganwarriors.com/WContent.aspx?id=7184&type=1

Re: Bans - HOCK 2 GAMES : Tue May 29, 2012 4:20 pm  

Hock given 2 games and £300 fine - bollox hoping the sending off would kick it down to one. Misses Catalans as well.

Tuson to follow...............

Re: Bans - HOCK 2 GAMES : Tue May 29, 2012 4:24 pm  

2 hugely tough games coming up but we'll cope.

Thankfully winning the last couple has taken the pressure and we can afford the odd slip.

Situations like this also highlight why it was important to win at Widnes too.

Re: Bans - HOCK 2 GAMES : Tue May 29, 2012 4:27 pm  

Basically lost 4 players from Sundays game, all from the pack. Definitely testing our strength in depth now with missing:

Hock, Hansen, Tuson, Mossop, Prescott, Flower, Fielden.

We'll have to see how good our young lads really are.

8. Lima
9. McIllorum
10. Dudson
11. Farrell
12. Lauaki
13. O'Loughlin

Then the lines of Crosby, Spencer, Hughes and co on the bench.
