There must be a special prize for posting that nonsense.

No need for insults or smart booty comments.

I stated that I (like the vast majority in the actual ground) didnt see it, clearly you did or have spoken to Jamie tonight.

Looks conclusive on the Batley Trl website.

Not good!

Seen the video clip, Acton didn't appear to 'raise his elbow' just left it there (so to speak).

I was at the game and it looked a terrible and cowardly late forearm at the bottom of the slope that put the Batley player into an ambulance and on to hospital.

If I can politely point out you do not get a red card if the officials do not see it. STOP DEFENDING THE INDEFENSIBLE

I hope he gets a very long ban and never pulls on our shirt again. He is not fit to wear it.

No doubt there will be a RFL anti Leigh/ anti Jamie conspiracy 16 page thread once he is rightly dealt with at Red Hall.

GET THIS GENTLEMAN'S P45 IN TOMORROW'S POST.

Could I respectfully point out that you seem to have misinterpreted my post.

The still,doesn't show the whole picture. The clip being shown that's doing the rounds,shows Acton raising his arm. The still pic your seeing is actually after the initial impact. Cheap shot and late but not convinced there was any head contact, but definitely shoulder.

Totally unnecessary, and Leigh need to deal with it now, as they just can't afford a liability.

Can't even imaging what's going though the guys mind in situations like this

Time after time after time after time after time

Appreciate you need to let the halfs your there (gawd knows Ben gets plenty), but he deserves everything he gets for that - and for me that looks like his season (including the 8's) over

Once to often for me - time to get shut

Are you free Alan to accompany Acton to Red Hall next week?

Don't get pressed into explaining where fingers and hands are attached to though.

Harold, I'm not defending, in any way, what he did. There was absolutely no need to make any contact with the Batley guy. It was late, it was high - end of. I merely question how hard the impact was and I'm surprised at the effect it had on Hemingway. He will be banned, he deserves to be banned, and I'm afraid that, despite his potential, it would appear that nobody can control his actions.

What potential are we talking about? This year he has been dross... isn’t running he’s weight anymore

The potential, for me, was his size, mobility, and all round fitness. Agreed he's not been breaking the line much, this season, but he has been committing numerous opposition players to the tackle.

However, I now think any potential is about to go out of the window!
