An absolutely fantastic performance by Fax, marred only by the two red cards. I can't remember the last time that happened and to get the penalty out of the incident says it all. That's the 3rd time this season we've done that and all away at Bradford, York and now Barrow. Well done to all. Up The Fax! Birchencliffe, Mythos 5.0% to celebrate.

Quality win that as its not an easy place to go. Gwaze red card was a bit soft with Miloudi play acting to try and get Worthington sent off. No problem with the Worthington red either but Miloudi deserved everything he got. Great team performance and besides Leigh we certainly look the next best entertaining team in the league, we are playing some great rugby now the dry grounds are here and it would be a real shame if the Widnes defeat costs us 3rd place.

Aye, how the hell did we lose that one? We need to win over at Widnes to address the balance. Up The Fax!

That was a very good win and well done to simon and the players for that performance. I thought we looked on top most of the game and should of been further ahead at the break and even being 12 up when we had the 2 players sent off i thought can we hang on but credit to the players we went from strength to strength pulling even further away. We do look a fit team that gets stronger as the game goes on even with players sent off not that i would want us to make a habit of that. As for the red cards i now that by the rules they are both red cards but you can see that Worthington gets hit around the head twice and then gets a head shoved in is face you would have to be a saint not to retaliate to that . The problem is and the same thing happened to Jacob against bradford this is not taken into consideration when handing out bans so i would expect both players to be handed big bans. Bring back the biff Heyman to that.

What the RFL need to do is outlaw players pushing their head into the opponent’s head/ face. It happens all the time and by the law is a high tackle because they are making contact with an opponents head. Plays do when a tackle has been completed and they lay on the tackles player pushing their head into the face.

A very good win but at a cost. Worthington defence needs to go along the lines of ....I was waiting for the refs whistle and it never came , I blew on the second headbut . You cant expect me to just take it without any reaction in the heat of battle. I always will play to a refs instruction but how long did I have to wait . Titus defence is.... everyone knew he was playing for a red . He wasnt injured as such just milking it .I think I should have been the yellow card and a conversation with the ref but that's life being me .
The barrow player caused everything , totally unnecessary.

I think Titus will get a grade c ( moving an injured player ) 2 games, some people are getting confused with the miloudi incident against Batley where he received a big ban , but that was for two incidents combined thus grade f. Worthington doesn’t have any previous and like you say was severely provoked by a combination by serious foul play and incompetent refereeing, he’ll still probably get 5 games at least . Miloudi should be getting a lengthy ban .Aaron Moore should be demoted .

Re: Barrow Away : Wed Jun 29, 2022 9:52 am  

It's quite clear from the video, first Greg takes a hit to the head, then he's grappled to the gound with a arm around his neck in a headlock putting pressure on his throat, and then ther's the attempted domination by, as Faxlore says, 'player pushing his head into the opponent’s head/face'. I wouldn't mind but the linesman is right there and has a clear view of it all. All 3 should of got a red card.

Spot on. If the ref had given a pen and a card for the 1st shot at Greg's head none of this would have happened. Surely Miloudi will be cited and banned though?

I’m guessing a bit here but I don’t think he needs to be cited because he received a yellow and the penalty was awarded to us for the original high shot , I think once they review it they will see more infringements plus he’s got a bad rep , literally only been back a couple of games . If I was Greg my argument would be that the officials weren’t quick enough to react , if they had tripped or fallen whilst in that position greg could’ve fractured his neck or spine , like I say poor officiating all round ,found it astonishing that the linesman said he didn’t see anything else from miloudi, bloody useless .
