The tackle occurred after the ball was released and the player was heavily hit causing a whiplash effect. Agree with the decision to give him a yellow card and he will be lucky to avoid another short spell on the sideline.

IMG wanted to make changes to it, but there seemed to be objections to it...and here we are

Doesn't surprise me. Part of the problem with the sport is that nobody ever seems to be singing from the same hymn sheet. And on the occasions when they are, it lasts a season or two at best.

Yeh Completely agree even by challenge cup standards those attendances are abysmal and only two/ three games on TV so they can't blame that. We bring in a multi million pound organisation who are top of the tree internationally for sports promotion and development and then over rule them when they indicate the way they think the game should go!! Same scenario with size of Super League and getting rid of loop fixtures. I think for a lot of uninitiated folk the game is getting boring.

Although, wasn't one of IMGs proposals a two legged challenge cup match? Imagine if we had to go in for a second innings this week at 50-4 down

We could play “Taz”ball but knowing Smith,He’d declare when we get close to hudds score.
