No you do not hear a word about him because he does not beat teams on his own.
This thread is pathetic.
Sargent is a player i would love at Wigan but he targeted Tomkins with a cheap shot and hit him clean. Tomkins took it and i am not surprised it took a bit of time to recover from came back and put in a match winning performance.
Apart from scoring 3 tries not sure what he did to annoy the Cas fans, can somebody please explain?
This has nothing to do with the Sarge incident. On 2 occasions in the 2nd half he went down looking for a penalty and pretended to be seriously injured. Personally after all that has happend in the game this year especially at Wakefield I was sickened by this. If a player is injured badly then the time it takes for them to get treatment is critical. If every team has 1 or 2 Tomkins' in their team the game would be stopping every 2 minutes while they found out if they were faking it or not.
Serious injuries will unfortunately happen in our sport, when I look at all the serious injuries I have seen over the years like Crowther for Hull a few years ago who correct me if I am wrong never played at the top level after his injury and to a lesser extent Westerman this year who thankfully wasn't seriously injured Tomkins is an insult to those players who have had their careers cut short by injury.
I can only assume that his antics were not picked up by sky. Sort yourself out Sam, the aussies in the 4 nations will point and laugh at you rolling around on the floor.
