This is shocking

Ben Flower: Shaun Wane 'will stand by' dismissed Wigan prop
Asked how he could defend the punch, Wane responded: "You can't. It's a rush of blood.
"It's the Wigan-Saints derby and everybody is getting whacked off the ball and he made an error.
"He'll be really upset with what he's done to his team-mates, but that's just the character and why we love Ben Flower so much.
|
What about the man he knocked out and then hit full in the face on the ground.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/rugby-league/29586010
Some of the forum posters Here think the Police should get involved based on the fact he punched an unconscious defenseless man on the ground.
quote from twitter
Quote:
No such thing as bad publicity is wrong.
A few Twitter messages.
Barrow Police: "When out and about tonight don't act like @WiganWarriorsRL Ben Flower or you will end up #bangedupinbarrow"
QPR midfielder Joey Barton: "Actually feel a bit sorry for Ben Flower. Lance started it with his elbow. Superb first dig from Flower. Second when he's KO'd is out of order."
Former England rugby union player Brian Moore: "Ben Flower - his first punch was retaliation for a cheap shot on him; second one was unforgiveable."
Former Wigan winger Martin Offiah: "Second punch Flower threw was over the top but in Rugby League if you forearm somebody in the face you can't complain if he clocks you one if I had done what Lance did I'd expect a slap. You play with fire you get burnt man. Lance Hohia will never attack Ben Flower again. Not condoning second punch on a prone player. I don't remember trying to take on a prop. You don't attack props and there was some provocation. If by stating that it makes me Satan then so be it."
Former England striker Gary Lineker: "If only other team sports could match the on-field behaviour of football."
Former England striker Michael Owen: "In China but just seen those punches in the Super League Grand Final on Twitter. First one was shocking but the second one was a disgrace. Can you imagine the outcry if a footballer did that? Can sort of understand the first punch after being provoked but to hit someone again when they are already out cold is hard to understand."
It will bring nothing but embarrassment to the sport.

Re: Super league
I think they got it right last night on sky, the players get themselves so worked up before the game, especially one like last night, Flower just went too far. He got the elbow to the face and overreacted, its not like the guy has a record of doing this before. He made a mistake and will have to live with it the rest of his career and you can almost guarantee he won't do anything that stupid again. I think Wigan are right to stand by him, people make mistakes, he deserves another chance.

Have you seen this ?

What does that say when the coach tells them to knock people out in the next game. ????

Well the Wigan club and the RFL need to deal with it quickly and then the game can move on. There is some great Rugby league coming over the next few months.

Re: Super league
The express is now after Wane.

"KNOCK PEOPLE OUT!" barks a furious Wigan coach Shaun Wane.
Ben Flower became the first player to be sent off in Grand Final history"
I can't give you any more of a free reign than that. Be reckless because that's what is going to get us the f****** win next week! Is everybody clear on that?"

Re: Super league
Personally l would kick them both out of the club as they has done considerable damage to the image of Wigan.
