Possibly gone for the season according to Brian Smith.

Had howarth and scruton tackled millington properly to start with his injury would not have happened

This does not bode well at all

Yep. Put the same on twitter that he can thank his team mates for the injury.

Sio should have started at hooker not Howarth.

Idiotic play all around in the lead up to that. Wholly avoidable. First mistake was that we didn't take 2 points smack bang in front of the posts. Second was Simon dropping it first tackle. Third was giving a needless penalty away and piggybacking em down to our line. Fourth was Howarth and Scruton with the two worst attempts at tackling a bloke you will see in the league all season leaving Locke to put his body on the line, which he did and now he and we have paid for it.

All in another series of brain dead plays to add to a season of brain dead plays. Bravo.

"We let ourselves down pretty badly early in the game and it got worse. "A lot of people have got to be accountable for today - the players have to and so do I.

Such a needless injury. The four or five would be tacklers ought to apologise to him.

I've heard some excuses on here, but blaming missed tackles on a player for another player getting injured just about takes the biscuit, even though I know your only kidding.

Whose joking? It was all part of a chain of events and the causal link in that chain were howarth and scruton pee poor attempts at tackling millington

Fair play to Locke for putting his body on the line, but it was very woeful from his team mates trying to stop Millington. Just a shame we're now without a world class player, when we need him the most

With the injury to Locke who do you think will be the new starting 17 for the middle 8s! I would prefer to see a team like this.
