| Klein is human, humans make mistakes, I beleive that he made less errors than either of the two side contesting an excellent, consistently watchable properly contested game of rugby league.
I wish all our refs were as competent & that all SL games were such gripping games.

| No Problem with the refereeing, think the elbow should result in a ban though, looked deliberate and obvious. Not sure of the value of letting that go.

| The value of letting it go is keeping League a contest between equal numbers on the field unless something outrageous occurs. Either side loosing a player to the bin or permanently would of altered the flow of a great contest and potentially decided the outcome.
Last night was my type of league rather than the ever increasingly sanitised version we have to put up with normally. Bring on the world league.

I have no problem with him being left on the field, id agree it is better for the contest and the spectacle. I just think he should be punished to a level that it becomes a clear disincentive. It was as clear, as deliberate, and as obvious as any leading with the elbow could be, it was more luck than judgement that it didnt injure someone.
Why not give him a one match ban after the fact, he then knows he cannot do it again, but we keep the game at 13 a side and see the great spectacle we saw?

| I have no problem with that if it's warranted.

I suspect last night was the closest we'll get to seeing SOO style referreeing (liberal interpretations) in this country and what resulted was a contest with players playing close to their physical limits.
Players should be allowed some latitude to express their prowess as long as it stays within a controlled environment.

I dont disagree. I think it is a problem we see in the game is that we seem to veer from a sanitised game to a game like we saw last night almost at a whim.
I have no problem with leading with the elbow being punished by a penalty and only a penalty if a prop forward dishing out a bit of 'justice' is treated in the same way.
I think the game is stuck in between wanting to have an attitude similar to ice hockey with the players keeping each other honest, and an attitude like football where the referee has to punish everything. I would hope they go for the former, but on the precedent of recent history they are going for the latter and thats why he should be punished.

| Think Klein started a little shakeily yesterday, but did extremely well overall. Many referees would have lost complete control of that game. But he did very well.
The two Manly tackles while were dangerous, won't intentional IMO. They went above the horizontal rather than a spear tackle, (no where near as bad as the union lot do). The elbow could have been a yellow, but then Ablett would probably have followed for a cheap shot to the ribs afterwards. Thought he did very well.

Agree, thought it was well reffed. Don't think there was anything worth a sending off,

Wasn't a good tackle. Eddie on sky raised a good point. (can't believe I have said that!!) TS has been moaning about getting ganson too much but if they had him for this game hudds would be down to 12 men
