Re: Rep Of Ireland v Wales
And on a more positive note I think Vokes did really well when he came on. Ward did well throughout. Hendrick quiet but had moments.

Give me one other moment when Neil Taylor has made a challenge like that?
It's a bad challenge but he certainly didn't go into it to break Coleman's leg.

Not quite, Bussts was a protruding bone through his sock. The reason Peter Schmeichel threw up in his area. It left Busst with one leg shorter than the other.The Enclosure wrote:That looks as bad as the horrific injury that ended David Busst's career playing for coventry against man utd.
Hopefully, as horrendous as it looks, it is a clean break and can be pinned.

Re: Rep Of Ireland v Wales
Not at all. Its a very bad injury. But that doesnt necisarily mean that it was an intentional, malicious or dangerous foul. Injuries happen from legitimate tackles as much if not more so than an intentional foul.Blyclaret wrote:Imagine if that was an English player that broke his leg

Charachter does come into it and Taylor isnt the sort of player who would intentionally harm another player. Especially given the fact he had a similar injury himself.
Having seen it once and dont intend to watch it again I think it ws probably a ref but didnt seem intentional.
Irelands tactics and pre match talk have a lot to answer for here imo. Not saying that Coleman deserved that injury. Far from it. But all the pre match talk was how they were going to be physical and 'let bale know they were there' (we all know what that means especially from Keane). Its now come to haunt them as their star player is the one whos suffered a horrific injury.
Bad tackle. Very bad injury. Dont think it was intentional. For a player to want to intentionally do thaf they would have to be a very sick person never mind dirty player and I dont think Taylor is either.

The force of Coleman kicking Taylor's leg is what I see.
Taylor stretched for the ball with his leg at a reasonable height and Coleman went for power.

It might not have been intentional - nobody can say either way - but it was certainly dangerous.
Not sure what the issue is with Keane. He was very complimentary about Bale. And I don't see anything wrong with what he said:
“The basic advice to any player if you’re up against a word class player: somebody get to him, get to him as quick as you can, don’t let him get his head up like he does at Real Madrid. Don’t give him space in behind because the boy can run. Tackle him. Hit him…fairly. Tackling is part of the bloody game.”

Re: Rep Of Ireland v Wales
I would suggest that you should remember that, in spite of the efforts of many of those running (or ruining) the game, football is still very much a physical sport in which, occasionally, players will suffer serious injuries.Blyclaret wrote:Just watched tackle again

This was a challenge between two players who both went in with intention of winning the ball, unfortunately, Coleman suffered a broken leg.
Taylor's disciplinary record is good having been dismissed once before last night and that was in 2011. He has made 304 appearances since making his debut as a professional in 2007 and received 44 cautions which, as a full back, is not excessive by any means.
Yet, you think that he should be banned for life.

It was a reckless challenge just as Bales was a minute earlier but no way can he have meant to break his leg. We see them week in and week out in football you'd have nobody left to play the game if you banned everyone for life!

Guessing it would have been Flynn and James some time in the 70's...
Scottish internationals - Caldwell, Alexander, Fletcher, Iwelumo

Not all the timelines match up but I bet there's a game we've had two on the same side at some point.

No player goes out to intentionally seriously hurt another player, sometimes it happens, that was a bad tackle and so was bales just before, if that was a defender on bale there would of been uproar.

Re: Rep Of Ireland v Wales
All the usual "he's not that type of player" nonsense. Apparently, no one is that type of player.
There's a subtle difference between reckless and malicious. I don't doubt Taylor wouldn't try and break legs, but if you fly in like that you run the risk of hurting someone badly. His intention seemed to be "stop him at all costs" rather than going in to do damage. It's ridiculous to say he should be banned for good, but his club and international manager need to be honest about his conduct. Rather than saying he's a great guy, which I've no reason to doubt, they need to admit he's got previous for reckless challenges and he needs to be more in control of his body.

They both went for the aame ball. Taylor went to tackle it at the same time that Coleman went to cross it running and kicking at speed. What should taylor have done? Let him run past?willsclarets wrote:All the usual "he's not that type of player" nonsense. Apparently, no one is that type of player.

The injury is an unfortunate consequence of two full blooded fully commited players.

Re: Rep Of Ireland v Wales
No problem with Taylor going for the ball, but are you saying it wasn't reckless cricketfield? Coleman had his body over the ball and his foot was at ball level. Taylor was lunging full stretch, with his foot over ball height.

Re: Rep Of Ireland v Wales
I dont know. I only saw it live. Not intention of watching it again. There is a fine line between whats a tackle a foul and reckless. And the game is becoming spoilt by everyone pouncing on anything other than an interception being a foul. The detail of the injiry shouldnt dictate which it was. E.g. Barnes acl at villa. Wasnt a career ending tackld but the injury itself was.
Whats happened to Coleman is horrendous. So as a fellow fullback it will be interesting to hear his take on it. But i genuinely think from the one view ive had and even pictures that it was an unfortunate accident that happens when full blooded players go for the same ball.
All this has distracted from the genuine thuggery of Glen Whelan.

Just a loanee, so I'm not sure that counts.
(Whilst eg Lafferty was out on loan I would have still considered him to be a Burnley player.)

Re: Rep Of Ireland v Wales
Well a few talking points I must say . I didn't see the tackle but when the medics came on I knew it must have been bad . How long Coleman will be out is a good question , jezzzzz we will miss him at the back for sure .
The game well not great was it as Ireland sat back and only got going when Wales were down to ten men , McClean was so close near to the end but there you go .
Great built up to the game as the town was hopping from early on but just seemed flat afterwards but hey we move on .

I'm still interested to know whether a player out on loan represents his parent club or the team he is loaned out to.

Re: Rep Of Ireland v Wales
This stuff about him not meaning to hurt the lad is nonsense. It's like me chucking a brick off a motorway and killing a driver. I could say I didn't mean to hurt anyone but, come on, what would anybody expect to have happened ?
Taylor went in over the top and if fortune is on the other player's side he doesn't get hurt. This one was a leg-breaker from the word go and was never going to be anything else. He did him good and proper.

Taylor went in, studs up, deliberately and the likely outcome is not good for the person on the other end and the point I'm making, beyond you, clearly, is that no amount of "I didn't mean to hurt anyone " can excuse reckless, dangerous behaviour.
