About the Elima red card, I had a look at the Warrington v Wigan match on the Super League Show and I saw a real red card. Morleys hit on Hansen was Illegall, no attempt to tackle, just ran at him with a high arm and hit him with the shoulder upper arm, at Hanson's head. Yet no ban. As one of the other guys on the BBC forums said "Morley plays for the wire, Elima only plays for Catalans - easy as that" I think Olivier has been hard done by.
I didnt think either was illegal myself, i feel both challenges were shoulder to the body and fully commited, like bailey on fa'asavalu last time round i just feel that because of the heads anatomically close location to the shoulder sometimes these challenges look bad but to penalise them is making the game soft.
