Well at least it didn't derail into a discussion about the commentary this time!

I've been thinking about the 2002 grand final and I have a lingering suspicion that Chris Joynt was guilty of a Voluntary tackle. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2002/ ... e.sthelens Interesting that the article opens with "This magnificent match was marred by a sustained display of petulance by Bradford's veteran hooker James Lowes, who was still abusing the officials five minutes after the final hooter" which doesn't sound like the mellow James Lowes I know and love. I know that I'm probably asking this too soon, whilst emotions are raw, but does anyone else think we should have had a penalty?

How was it not a penalty? And Withers' non-knock on. It's all coming flooding back. The RFL have always hated us.
