Criticising the tackle.



Was it really that bad/malicious?



Coley took his legs. Not really sure of the value of the comment here.

From what I saw it just seemed to be an ordinary attempt to tackle round the legs. Mossop went to wrap up the ball so Coley went for the legs. Maybe I'll see it better when I get to watch it again but at the time there didn't seem much in it. The Wire players didn't seem to react much either.

Frig me! At this rate we will be playing 'pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake baker's man.



One round the legs one high, a text-book tackle that is taught to kids as young as five! FFS!!!

You know what they say Tony..... If you keep telling lies you will end up with a big nose





Sour grapes from TS, Coley did what any player would and took Solomonas legs as he was moving forward with only one man (Mossop) up high.

Perhaps two years ago an injury from a textbook tackle like that would have been bye the bye.



However it is now de'rigure to hone in on tackles around the legs so TS is only really jumping on the bandwagon.



Its a shame really that it has come to this.

Its getting ridiculous now.



There was absolutely nothing wrong with that tackle. He wasnt even stationary.

I blame Solomona being so fat on his leg buckling!



To be fair he caused us stacks of problems when he was on today.

TS is reported by the BBC as having said he had warned about "those sorts of tackles" for a long time.



Looks suspiciously like sour grapes to me. Coley tackled a player in motion around the legs. Solomona was injured and that's unfortunate but RL is not netball, it is a full contact sport.

absolutely nothing in it. Not Coleys style. Just an unfortunate injury, they happen all the time.

This.

Tackle was fair, just a case of sour grapes for Tony Smith.



The tackle was very similar to how Melbourne make EVERY tackle, man upstairs 1st, 2nd man comes in to wrap the legs up...



A very good technique.

The thing that pi$$es me of the most is that TS will now have the high moral ground and it is all we will hear about.



If Sam T was felled by a tackle like that and seriously injured, you would have to say that it was just one of those things.



I am sure we used to play a contact sport
