Man I love this comp so much more than the NRL. Just so much fun to watch.

Right not I am watching the replay of Castleford v Wigan. One bloke gets a yellow card for upending a bloke in a really ugly looking tackle. Some minutes later, a player on the other side gets redcarded for knocking a falling bloke's head into 2030. Not sure why the yellow card wasn't a red card too but here we are.

The first red in the Hull derby was crazy by Pele. Dont know what he was thinking.

Why ESL, why?

George Williams got absolutely SMASHED in one of the best legal hits you'll ever see at 21 mins in for Warrington but nup, penalty, you hit him too hard.

That kind of tackle should be rewarded, he absolutely BELTED him, great tackle.

The penalty was for Navarrete putting his arm around Vaughan's neck and pulling him to the ground in the next tackle.

Asiata got binned in the first minute for a legit legs tackle that missed.

He then came back on for about a minute and then went off with a calf injury.

Safe enough to say, not his happiest night.

It’s also a real shame Sailor didn’t get to go to Leigh, he’d be so good for them.

Hull FC scored an amazing try against London about 28 mins. Seriously, you aren't going to see many better team tries than this.

Warrington's try in the 39th minute this meeting was fantastic!

Overnight, Matautia SMASHED a Leeds player in the midriff...he got penalised and Leeds number 11 went off HIA. Ridiculous.

Sounds like super league is losing the plot... is it being run by a yawnion plant or something??

From what i'm hearing, they are scared to death of getting sued by players for not looking after their welfare and they are going over the top. It all stems from the 160 players taking action against the governing body for failing to protect the players.

Pretty disappointing round all in all, a lot of blowouts.
