I personally thought KR were milking the penalties at every occasion. Every tackle theywere wriggling around claiming they were being held down! Its just like diving in football!

Kevin Sinfield had absolutely nothing to be proud of last night. Do you think he set a good example to his players and to the younger Rhinos fans? definitely not in my opinion. Seems quite ironic that when you went in front he had nothing to complain about.

Rugby League was never intended to be played in this manner. Ive been binned for looking at a ref funny! i know im ugly but come on, Sinfield was wagging his finger in Benthems face. NO PLAYER has the right to do that. not even the captian.

Overall, in my opinion, a very average performance by an average player.

Because average players captain thier sides to 3 Super league titles and 2 world club championships!! Also one of the all time point scorers at leeds!! Well i think we'll just keep a hold of our average captain!

Did anyone hear his convo with Bentham while Bailey was down? He explained himself and said that he wasnt having a go in the first half, its just how he expresses himself. Bentham replied with... "I know Kev but you have to understand that they (the supporters) cant hear what you are saying and can only see you pointing and having a go"

Then SKY turned the sound off

Mate, hes 11 posts old and is obviously trying to get a bite. Look for the signs.

I edited out all the non-factual bits of your post.

Ouch!

I though that at the time but 1 of them was Diskin.

haha! 11 posts old on a fans forum so I obviously know nothing about the game of Rugby league. In my opinion, Kevin Sinfield is an average player at best. If that gets your back up then i'm terribly sorry.

It might have been. Due to the remote location of Hull KR's ground I wasn't able to have my usual amount of booze before and during the game. Without nature's overcoat my eyes might have frozen slightly out of focus.

Agreed.

It must be frustrating as a player when calls go against you with very little coming your way and as someone else has already said, as a fan you would be a little worried if your players didn't show that. I believe the penalty count at one point was 9-2 to KR which is massive in tight games, in bad conditions. It's all about field position. I feel Bentham is easily swayed by home support, for example, the first HKR pen (which led to their try) was Diskin 'holding down'. Never was that holding down. He completes the tackle perfectly but the crowd noise increases and the whistle is blown. Now I'm pretty sure the failure at the world cup was partly due to the control the Aussies and Kiwis had at the ruck and play the ball and that tackle of Diskin was just the way they did it. Yet we want quicker and quicker play the balls.

The finger wagging was pointing at Hull KR wasn't it, not Bentham?

But how about the penalty count?
