Usually agree with the reports posted, but think this one is hughly biased against Mr Silverwood who I thought had a good game and even though it pains me to say so did the Sky Team
Watch the game again and you will see that Mr Silverwood wasnt the fourteenth man as the report suggests and wasnt biased toward either team , he did what all good referees should do and that is give it as you see it or if not sure check with the other officials ( Who by the way were both full time referees)

Watched the game again myself and I think you will find that Webb was penalised for striking Matt Blythe and not Westwood !!

It was hard for him to hit Westwood when he was snogging him to death.

Leeds won so Mr Silverwood had a good game - he even managed to spot a few knock-ons this week.

IMO Silverwood got the Webb incident wrong as Westwood clearly dropped on his head which would spark that reaction from most players. The other decision which grates a little is the Ablett play the ball penalty, if you watch the incident Ablett is at the side of the ball, as are many players that have just made a tackle, but then Higham pushes him over (which I've seen given as a penalty) and his legs then interfere with the ball...penalty Wire. If he hadn't pushed him over he had sufficient space to play the ball and get on with the game, Higham has a habit of pushing the players at the PTB which takes the opponent out of the game and/or prompts a penalty.

He got the Higham/Myler decision correct in terms of the law of the game which is a little harsh on Warrington as it was a good move, that said Webb shouldn't have allowed the ball to bounce. Had it not been a TV game it may have been given but I guess Silverwood was telling Higham

The only things Silverwood did wrong was to take the advice of Hick The Prick and then to act on it. IMO Westwood should receive a call before the beaks.
