[iMickael Simon of Wakefield Trinity Wildcats has been charged with Grade B reckless striking with the shoulder on Leigh Centurions player Martyn Ridyard in the 35th minute of a fixture played at Belle Vue on Sunday May 17.[/i

Grade B is 1-2 games.

Any action on the third man in who put his shoulder into his back which caused him to leave the field?

No

I wondered about that "tackle". Apparently it must be legal.

More than a few late swinging arms to the head from Leigh yesterday.

Nothing like that from Kirmond, Riley, Miller, washbrook ...

so he should have been sent off, don't recall the incident though.

Harsh on Simon IMHO.

Acton late off the ball on McShane was far worse as was the 3rd man in the tackle late on Simon.

Leigh did well hiding the late shot and seemed masters of ripping the ball out in the tackle. Fair play to them. Wish we had a little of that bite and devilish streak. They did what they needed to do to win.

This. Leigh seem to have mastered playing on the edge of legality when it comes to their defence and really know how to rattle teams. Lots of swings around the head late in the tackle and hands on the ball. That extremely late hit on McShane though should have led to a ban.

They had the right attitude and decent fitness levels with 35 year old Wilkes scoring towards the end of the game. Trinity have neither the attitude or fitness. The loss though may have done Trinity a favour with change of coaching/conditioning regime...

Wouldn't worry about that my shame was throwing the arm in every tackle!! What about the spear on briereley saying that glad miller stayed on he's rubbish!! I do agree we are a rough set that play on the edge but we are playing rugby not footy

So why wasn't this late hit picked up by the match review panel a la the Simon offence. Nothing was put on report as far as I can remember.

Was that the one where the Leigh player had just knocked on?

Anyhow, Kirmond should be up, for dereliction of duties.
