Re: Tom Simpkin? !!
Can't believe at how easily Dawes went down. Must have been a great contact. Not smart of Simpkin but he should learn from it.

Re: Tom Simpkin? !!
personally I find it refreshing to see a defender who is more than happy to intimidate the opposition.

Hitting Dawes is like picking on a toddler.
Re: Tom Simpkin? !!
No doubt he is gone, but was a flop from Dawes. His head moved about a cm from the hit. Would it hurt? Probably. Would you fall down as if Mike Tyson hit you? No

Re: Tom Simpkin? !!
I couldn't believe that the umpire didn't pay a free. He was near them, but maybe momentarily looked the other way. Will get a week or so with an early plea.
Re: Tom Simpkin? !!
Stupid by Tom. Not touch, just dumb by a player who hasnt got a permanent position.

Didn't say he didn't hit him but it was hardly even a hit and he fell like a drunk on rohypnol. He's one of the greatest soft cocks for his size ever. I think they bought him in to make Jack Watts look awesome in comparison.
I admit JW looks a player now he's gone forward though.
Re: Tom Simpkin? !!
Just no need for it, not tough in anyway... What did it really prove?
Deserves weeks
And if you're that dumb that you need to actually be suspended to no that that's not on, rather than just knowing it... You're actually stupid... So you'd learn little anyway...
If situation were reversed people would be spooking no end

No idea what that has to do with Tom being stupid but hey I just watch the game.

If you're going to do it, belt Judd or something. Not a love tap against zero opposition!

Re: Tom Simpkin? !!
Anyone that reckons that was soft has never had a sneaky knuckle in their face.
Try this. Get one of your mates to give you a short jab to a hard part of your face like your cheek bone, eye socket or even forehead. It only has to be a stroke of somewhere between 150 to 300mm.
What Tom did looked soft but I bet you it got Dawes thinking and he will remember that next time they play. Ok Simpkin will get a holiday but playing on Monster forwards means you have to be a monster backman every now and then.

If every defender did that every week we would have 18 players out suspended at any given time.millarsaint wrote:personally I find it refreshing to see a defender who is more than happy to intimidate the opposition.
