Three offences in his first two games, doesn't strike me as an angel.

We seem to have bad luck following us around at the moment!
Worrying times ahead !

Re: Our forwards : Mon Feb 11, 2019 5:55 pm  

For the last couple of seasons, far too many match bans have been handed out for literally nothing ie the Taylor tackle of McShane for a start. Nothing in it whatsoever, yet receives two match ban for it?! I get the RFL clamping down on high tackles, just like the NFL has started to do with so many concussions. But for a player falling awkwardly while a couple of tacklers are on top of him is laughable.

Think the next 3 games will show us the errors in our recruiting over the last year. Painfully thin in the front row. Any injuries on top of this and we're stuffed

A ban for taylor is a disaster for us. Seasons gone to rat shiit already. Let's hope that london don't win many more games

Apparently Joel attacked his elbow with his head.

Fwiw I never saw Taylor do anything worthy of a ban, seems harsh

But Tompkins did for falling into him?

Your point being?

Fairly obvious I'd have thought, 2 other players with "dangerous contact" charges, but not deemed dangerous enough to warrant any bans.

Taylor apart and without him we are playing Super League with a Championship quality front row.
Then if we look at the bench we have two promising young players in Lane and Litten the rest are not Super League quality.
