It would seem Francis Cummins' dummy spit after the game on Friday wasn't enough and he's now decided to complain to the RFL about our tackling technique despite the fact neither the referee nor the disciplinary had a problem with it..............

To be honest you have got form for this type of thing.

I am right in saying that it was the Bulls tackling technique in the under 19s that caused an all in brawl after the hooter?

I would love to see the details of the complaint given that what appeared to be a spear tackle on Charnley seemed to be ignored in the game.

Should be more concerned about his position as a Coach at Bradford.

Really? Please supply us with a long list of charges/penalties/injuries to support this "form"

He sounds a bit like Royston

I didn't watch the full game so it may have been brewing for a while but certainly the spark for the brawl was one of their players bending the leg of one of ours.

As seems to be the case so often these days, Bradford are about three years behind the rest of Super League.

Cummins obviously doesn't realise that 'Wigan's tackling technique' was the 2010 excuse.

If I was his boss, I'd be more interested in his views on how they managed to lose a 16-4 halftime lead.

The 19's brawl was started by a Bradford player extending the leg of Burgess after the hooter.
There were a couple of incidents just before this and the ref had spoken to Beecham and a Bulls prop at a scrum.
Burgess looked (to me) to have been caught with a swinging arm in a tackle after the refs chat.

Our tackling 'technique' is the same as used by all SL clubs now, disappointing when coaches use this kind of attitude to cover up their inadequacies, he's doing a decent job at Bradford, but has let himself down with this.

This just to ddeflect from their poor end to the game which they should have won.
At the press conf after the game Cummins was whinging about not getting decisions. He didn't say that last year when MicMac was sent off and then charged with a grade A offence.

When a player is driving the ball forward and being held by two men yet keeps his legs pumping and going forward, doesn't he expect to get tackled around the legs? Either take the tackle or expect a leg tackle.
This is Cummins deflecting from his team's poor loss.
