I thought that was a really odd decision - Wire weren't disadvantaged at all by the players not being square - in fact they got a good attacking kick away that Hall had to run dead yet it was, what, the only penalty for not being square in the game?!

Yep, think it was and those were my thoughts on that matter.

Easiest decision of the night that for me - Jonesy was the wrong side of the tackle, never mind square. He then tackled the dummy half straight away to attempt to slow the play down. Silverwood tried to play an advantage - when there was none he brought it back. Similar to the way he did for the Briers high tackle on Ablett.

I thought the M.Monaghan on Sinfield was late and should have been 10 in the sin bin it was unfortunate they clashed heads imo but late and the one on Hardaker was rdiculous and should have been called back by the VR.
The Pen against us the stroke of H/T was blatant but the number of times he ignored it was just as frustrating imo either penalise it or don't imo.
Anyway we deserved the win and the lads did us proud.

Haven't seen the match back yet...... Don't think I will ever bother.

With regard to the Monaghan on Sinfield I thought it was just an incident. Maybe looked worse when slowed down. ..... However I've only seen it on the big screen at the game.

Regarding the game, I'll be surprised if anyone can argue about the result.
The Leeds defence was outstanding.

Before the challenge cup final I said I've no problem seeing the likes of Sinfield, burrow, jjb and many others lifting a trophy and I stand by that now.

Your a club that does things the right way and I hope we contest many more finals in the future.

This! A pleasure to meet Wire fans last night.

No it wasn't, JJB (the culprit again) was penalised in the set before when Morley charged the ball up from the kick off after their try in the 38th minute.
Both decisions were absolutely correct.
For once I don't think Silverwood had a bad game.
Yes, there were mistakes from the officials, but still fewer than those made by the players of both sides.
The game flew by which was a testament to the officials & both sets of players.
It was a pleasure & an honour to be there.

i was sat next to an ex SL referee. he hammered silverwoods display. he pointed things out the fan wouldn't see and told me what he had done wrong and why. it was an interesting chat

Thought in general he had a decent game

Regarding sinny being knocked out I thought it was accidental. It was late and should have been penalised though

I thought he had a good game to be fair.

And Monaghan on Sinfield was just unfortunately late, no intent there.

Hob-nobbing again I see mate

Hope you weren't causing a disturbance again???

The Monaghan on Sinfield incident is one of my bugbears. Monaghan was 'committed' but could also have easily pulled out, he wasnt ever going to get the ball so he just threw himself at Sinfield from miles away so that he could defend himself as 'committed', Monaghan's aim there wasnt to get the ball or block the kick but to get a hit on Sinfield after the ball had been kicked, but commit early enough to it to get away with it. Frankly its pointless, adds nothing to the game, and could be quite easily penalised out of the game. But it hasnt been so it would be unfair to punish Monaghan for something that has been left unpunished all season.

Just watching the beeb highlights - Jonathan Davies is hilarious, bangs on and on about a great "ball steal" by Myler on Zac then they show the replay...Myler leads with elbow to the jaw..."oh, that's a penalty, should be no try"

Myler got his when bailey went in late in the last minute.
