==roundpeg21=Briscoe is a master of making ground after the tackle but for once the ref pulled him up even the leeds appreciation society on the gantry agreed with that decision.

People need to realise that making contact with the shoulder is not necessarily a shoulder charge. Every great tackle should make first contact with the shoulder. Last night's tackle was not a shoulder charge.

Moon made contact with the head of Percival which was a clear penalty (missed by Silverwood), and probably a red card though a fairly harsh one.

I also cannot understand the classification of Moons challenge as a shoulder charge, it was nothing of the sort.

It was contact with the head, and a red card is effectively a subjective call based on whether you believe it was intentional or accidental. On that basis it does seem harsh to be a straight red and not yet another and much more frequently seen on report incident.

Silverwood was at least consistent in his PTB rulings last night; horribly slow, which has been a feature of his refereeing this season.

The difference in penalty counts in each half is an interesting observation, 13 penalties 1st half and 2 2nd half. Did Silverwood receive assessor instructions to referee differently after half time? It certainly worked against Leeds who would have welcomed opportunities to take the 2 second half.
