Please just ignore him, think this topic is been done to death, he has been banned (slightly fortunate with the length), Mcguire doesn't seem as badly injured as first thought (good news).

Big game coming up for both clubs on Friday, both have injuries, lets hope we get their is decent crowd and we are taking about the rugby rather than injuries and bans to players.

Oh

Yes. Diseases can be spread by saliva. Not simply the act of spitting. If a player were to have a deadly disease communicable by saliva other precautions bar not spitting would be taken.

Agree with all of that, looking forward to a good game on friday.

Decent post Dave. I reckon this thread will fade away by Saturday morning, doubtless there will be new controversies to pour over from the the game on Friday.

Flower offence was life-endangering, Sneyd's was not. Didn't like what Sneyd did, but there's a big difference between threats to life and to limb.

Which life threatening diseases are spread through saliva?

I posted the link

TB for one

Agreed, whoever wins (personally can't see past a Leeds win

), Iv'e not doubt there will be some serious gloating going on, I'm going to try and stay out of it and talk about what happens in the game.

I really we are talking about something more interesting than Saliva.

So how many professional Rugby League players do you think could pass a fitness test with communicable Tuberculosis?

don't bite, where not all like him , hope you guys have a safe journey and we can just have a good match to watch,

We're not all bad either....

yep let's hope for a good clean match. If Danny and Cuthbertson make it then I fancy us if not then I'm hoping for another 1980 [ilast one out turn the lights off[/i final

Not allowed - life threatening diseases a real possibility.

Agree with that. Which is why I think Flower was very lucky to end up with the ban that he did. It turned out to be about 10 games didn't it?
