he has got away with it charged under 15.1 but given a caution he does not have to go to the panel he's a letter saying naughty boy don't do it again

The saying 'bent as a 9 bob note' has now been dropped.....corrected phrase is 'bent as the RFL!':d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_45047.jpg



At the game it was way down the other end of the pitch and I thought that it looked like a simple ball steal. However, having seen it on tv I've got to say it was high.

For once, (and I'll be the first to admit that I have in the past) I'm not knocking Goldie as I thought he had a few twicthy moments but otherwise a cracking game, and I hope he doesn't take the final moment too much to heart!

Quote: tropical1 "Well Mcgoldricks tackle can't have been that bad the rfl haven't even looked at it, on the other hand however Watkins has been cautioned for use of the knees on Rangi ... you must remember the incident ... you know the one we didn't even get a penalty for'"


McGoldrick's tackle wasn't that bad, and I don't think anyone's ever suggested it was. He was wrong-footed and reached and grabbed. Penalty, but penalty sufficient.

I think Watkins was probably harshly cautioned to be honest, if you watch in slow motion then you can see he made contact with the knees, but watched at full speed it happened rather quickly to be a pre-meditated act. I've seen worse when players are dropping on a ball on the ground most weeks to be fair.

1) Wouldn't that make the game a thrilling spectacle. 2 officials had a decent view of it, why ask a third?

2) I've watched it a few times now. It was a penalty every single time I watched it. Are you sure you're watching the right incident?

Regarding Goldy's tackle... initial contact was clearly shoulder and then onto the ball carrying arm, at best another 50/50 call that went the 'big' club's way. But meh - it's done with. Move on. As someone said earlier we had chances to stop them getting in that position, chances to win the game in normal time... if this or if that counts for nothing now.

Regarding knees into players and similar actions - in my mind any penalty should reflect the potential for significant injury. It should have nothing to do with intent, which is far more subjective thing to decide upon. It shouldn't matter whether he meant it, only that he did it.

That would have been a penalty every week, in every game, regardless of who was playing and who the ref was; it was a lazy/tired arm in the face and was an easy decision for Bentham. It may be perceived as a harsh way for a tight and important game to end, but McGoldrick has to own that one - Bentham can sleep easy.

I can't help wondering if all the Cas fans arguing that a game should never be decided on a golden point felt the same way a few weeks ago as they were leaving BV, or if they've only arrived at this realisation since, hmmm, some time on Sunday afternoon?

Actually most fans thought it was a bad idea after the HALIFAX game nevermind the Wakey one.

Watched it again and he didn't touch McGuire's face at all. Initial contact was on his shoulder and he dragged his arm down towards the ground diagonally, hence why the ball was displaced.

To be fair, we won and I still felt like golden point was both an anti-climax and a lottery. I'm glad we won, but I still wouldn't vote for golden point. I'd consider golden try, although given how Sunday's game panned out, we might still be there now.

I thought McGoldrick had a good game. I'd be more agrieved about the penalty Bentman gave when he pushed a Leeds player out of his way when he wante a quick PTB and the Rhino went down like he'd been shot - not sure who it was, but he should be embarassed! As for THAT penalty - I thought he tried to knock the ball out 'cos he knew McOscar was past him, which was a clever idea and would have been a brilliant play - but instead gave a clear penalty away. You can't condemn a player for a spur of the moment decision like that, it's what sport is all bout.

it was a penalty either way because it was 2 in the tackle and a ball strip.the referee has nothing to do with it he gave calls castlefords way just as much as he did leeds, the 2 tries dissallowed could of easily stood.it was a great physical game which either team could of won.just like you did against wakey in extra time

Two in the tackle? Cas might have won if there'd even been one in the tackle! Penalty was given for a high tackle (correctly), I dont think it would have been given if he'd hit McOscars arm and knocked the ball out - but we'll never know.
