without the camera Im sure they would normally have awarded the try imo

It made me laugh tonight .... we have this whinging whino fan at work who really HATES Bentham and he ... along with the rest of the whino set up ... thinks he's got it in for them. But that video ref decision tonight was awful, Smith was DEFINITELY offside, how could he give that? And what with the "high tackle" he did us for last weekend at a crucial time. Ganson's no better ... scrubbing the tackle count clean when the ball was kicked against a scouse player from half a yard. Crucial call. I know reffing must be tough but some decisions are real howlers and gamebreakers. Bentham had no excuse because he could take his time.

And I noticed SKY didn't do the "floating camera" stuff as much in the 2nd half. It wouldn't have surprised me if their switchboard was jammed with complaints so they decided to ditch it.

maybe so.
but have cameras n that must be a wrong decision was clearly in front of the kicker.

I agree.

Sinfield comments at the end were good, they have a real 'team' at Leeds.

the Smith second try was marginal but i do think that it was offside.

whats the point in having Video Refs if they still get things wrong. i can see why he gave it, it was a tight call but for me was offside.

Well i thought it was onside, don't even see BOTD come into it. Smith was in line with the saints player on that 'new' camera angle, which is where the ball was on the toe of Sinfield. Don't see what the problem is.

Look at the line. Smith was certainly more in front of that line than the kicker. It was totally obvious. Bentham and some other"believers" were trying to apply quantum physics to the situation when it was bluddy obvious Smith WAS in front! Bluddy 'ell.

Lot of crowd trouble after game apparently.



Scousers no doubt!

................are you laying a trap with that statement?

Saints are probably getting annoyed that they keep getting beat every year and even when they finish second they still lose the final.
