Not sure. It was a leeds penalty, and the ball ended up in touch, followed by Ganson calling time. If Sinny tapped it and then kicked it, then game over. If he kicked it straight out, then it should have been another PTB.

It doesn't really matter, but I think Sinny tapped it and kicked to end it.

Leeds fans were too busy cxelebrating by then anyway

Yes, IMO. But I think Ganson stopped the game when Bailey ran in on Graham because right at that moment it was on. Ganson blew up at that point and the sting was taken out of the situation. Then he blew up early so that no more plays were taken and the game finished 4 or 5 seconds short.

In some respects it was fantastic reffing.

In the respect that I wanted to see all the Saints players getting tvvated, it was a shameful abuse of reffing power. He blew up and stopped the game when there was no offence. He finished the game early so there'd be no violence. A disgusting abuse of power. Get him out!

Graham was clearly offside, he had to give it.



There was a certain symmetery (sp?) between the first and last minute decisions.

Having watched it again Burrow's forearm connects with exactly the same part of Long's body that Long's non carrying arm does with Burrows' Long strikes first. Should have either let it go or be penalty to Leeds.

NRL final last week, out of 7 tries just 1 referal to video ref, both touch judges were consulted by the ref, video a last resort. Ganson can't cope without it. RFL should save money a do away with touch judges.

Yeah, just watched it back. I'm blaming the producer's choice of the high camera for my error.

Which VR decisions do you think Ganson shouldn't have referred?

To be fair they were decisions that needed the vid ref. Maybe Lee Smith's first after Meli lost it could have been given straight away but you can't complain really.

Silverwood was very good in that respect last week, a pity the rest of his game was off.

I was a blantant attempt to slow down, infringe and spoil play in a try scoring position! it's a profesionl foul, It should be a binning every time. I've seen plenty go for identical plays.

After a dodgy start he wasnt too bad . he missed a few Saints forward passes. Missed the knock on just prior to Wilkins kick out on the full . I also thought that when Hall offloaded as he was going in touch there was an offside from sts that he missed. Hall passed the ball back one saint touche it in flight and another pushed it backwards from an offside position should have been a pen to leeds. He also penalised keith for 'jumping' (since when was that an offence- one that we have been penalised twice for this year) and the high tackle call agaisnt rob was harsh. Some of those are down to human error some down to his own weird rule making. Most of the game I didnt notice him though which is exactly as it should be.

No doubt about it that ganson is best ref in super league.

He was always going to be fair because he wouldn't risk missing out on another Leeds v saints final.

I thought he had pretty good game to be honest.
