All those defending Gale, its indefensible what he did. He put 2 hands on Kendall and shoved him trying to get to Williams. When he tapped he Williams he laughed in a jovial manner like two pals having bants. Hes got 2 matches. A leader and (captain) needs to give their head a shake if they think thats acceptable. You cant touch the ref under any circumstances. It wasnt accidental, it wasnt gentle, it was stupid. Im actually incensed that he did it. The equivalent of an inplay coach killer.

Look at what happened to Mellor and Briscoe, and that was a fleeting touch running into a melee.

Did you let rip at GH?

Odd to see comments suggesting we were tired on Friday, we were playing Cas who have played more games this season than Leeds. Are they tired too?

we played 3 games 1n 10 days.
majority of that cas side played once in 3 weeks

I thought Cas rolled over and played weakend teams in the run up to the challenge cup.

They also had a couple of 24 - 0 "fixtures," which I'm told are not as draining, mainly due to the fact that no actual rugby takes place.
