Does anyone know who the "Merry Whistle Blower" will be on saturday.
Sure a RFL review of Gansons performance would exclude him.

Whereas Bentham at Wembley was the paragon of perfection.
One thing's for sure it won't be Silverwood.

Surely Bentham won't get both Finals? His interpretation of the 'flat pass' from Wigan tonight was interesting AGAIN! I think they only got pulled for it near the end when Crystal Tips launched a 'Hail Mary Pass'. Terrible!

My moneys on the cheese eating surrender monkey

Should be Thaler for me, he's been the best all season.

Indeed not ... I understand he's been blacklisted for the rest of the season

At least he's incompetant for both sides rather than bent, unlike some pit-village refs I could mention who have spent most of their lives being brought up to hate Leeds

Agreed. 0% chance of that though. Bentham messed up CC final and Ganson has proven contentious during the play offs. But they are very unlikely to give it to someone who hasn't refereed for either of the past two weeks so those two are the candidates. Not ideal; perhaps Bentham is the better option - it's not Wigan for whom he appears to have developed an unhealthy affection and, who knows, somewhere in his tiny heart he might just subconciously feel slightly guilty for his Wembley incompetence and pass us one or two of the 50/50s Ganson failed to last night.

Between Ganson and Bentham in my opinion and I both hope and think it will go to Ganson.

definitely Halibert - trés bon choix

Terry Halibut I think.

Thaler had a poor game in the playoff vs. Hull. He was every bit as one-eyed for us as Ganson was for Wire.

Silverwood's been the best ref this season IMO but obviously he won't get it. Alibert has been ignored in post-season. Bentham had Wembley. Reckon it'll be Showbiz Steve.

Whoever it is lets just hope for a game where we are talking about the RL and what the players do because far too often nowadays we are discussing inconsistent and inept reffing displays.

Ganson should not, IMO, be considered due to St Helens being in the final but then the RFL seem to court controversy.

We beat Saints the other year with Ganson in charge!
