Touching the side of the ball isn't downward pressure , as wasn't Liam Hoods identical no try 2 minutes earlier , or was that a try as well ?
And Salfords last try last pass was also forwards as well as the Lui one
Just get over it , we won fair and square

I sort of wish we were in the Middle 8's every year, your fans are much funnier than those in the Super 8's!

Why are some Leigh fans thinking Leeds fans are upset that Leigh won? Another Super League team dropping points, and to a Championship team only helps us.

We don't think youre upset , just the usual Leeds fans arrogance on display
So worthy of comment

Some of these decisions i think what more do they do want, a forsenic sweep of the pitch with DNA evidence to the prove the on field decision wrong, would that stand up int eh court of video ref decision making?'"
Yep agree with that. It seems a bit silly to rely so much on the opinion of the ref who, by definition of sending it to the VR, isn't sure of what happened.
The only time I'd take his initial decision into account is in those situations where the VR can't really see whether the ball gets down or not, like when there's tacklers around the ball. If the VR can't see then I don't mind taking the on-field ref's initial decision into account, but when the VR has a good view of the incident it's just silly to take account of the on-field ref's opinion either way.
If the on-field ref had sent up the Murdoch-Masila one as a try then it would have been given. Which is a daft system.

| Quote: Iggy79 "I've never been a fan of the VR, but some of the decisions this season have been embarrassing. On field refs rely on them far too much, yet the VR almost always goes with the onfield decision regardless of the evidence. Complete waste of time IMO'"
Agree with the first part. There have been some terrible decisions made this year. And I find them inexcusable. I might mutter at the actual game but afterwards I generally accept that an on-field ref gets 1 look and has to make an instantaneous decision and make hundreds, if not thousands, of decisions a game and so is going to get some wrong. A video ref should never get it wrong.
Also agree that on-field ref's rely on them too much. Which wouldn't be too much of a problem if the VR system was working well but it's not.
I think the Video Ref can be a useful tool, sadly at the moment it just seems to be run by useless ones.

Someone saying he thought the VR got a decision wrong is arrogance???
Do you even know what you're saying? Wouldn't arrogance be that you're on here today bragging about your win yesterday whereas if you lost you'd be nowhere to be seen on here?

' Bragging ' ? , YOU brought up the subject of Leigh's win , so sorry I didn't realise we're not allowed to comment on YOUR opinions of a match involving our team , and not yours
That's arrogance my friend , the insinuance was we'd only won because of a VR s wrong decision , well if you're all so bloody clever , go and be referees , let's face it , you're all experts at forwards passes being Leeds fans
All the best

No it wasn't you dozy pillock. It was in reply to AG's post that the VR had got all the decisions correct when I don't think he did.
Fortunately there was a sensible Leigh fan who replied in a normal fashion and so we got in to a discussion about the video ref.
Whereas you, atomic and Budgiezilla just proved what idiots you are. Fortunately you don't represent most Leigh fans.
To iggy and the sensible Leigh fans - good luck in the Middle 8's except against us.
To the idiotic Leigh fans - sod off.

| To be fair to Leigh they played some great stuff yesterday and deserved their win. On top of that it was exactly what the middle 8s needed.
Squeaky bum time now for a few SL teams and that makes it interesting.
Salford v KR next week is a massive game with lots of pressure on it.
I still think Leigh have to beat 1 more SL team to finish in the top 3 but i think they are more than capable of giving KR a hell of a game at the very least.
Leigh have spent big and deserve a Super League spot in my opinion. They are far too good for the Championship.

All you had to say was you thought it wasn't a try, that's all. Y'know, like a normal human being. But instead you went off into lala-everybody-hates-us-cos-we're-Leigh-land.
It's not hurting me in the slightest, after 12 seasons of winning more than I ever thought I'd see in my lifetime never mind a decade or so, I'm very philosophical about Leeds. As long as we stay up we'll be fine next year.
As I said, the sensible Leigh fans saw the post for what it actually was, a discussion on the video ref.
The idiotic Leigh fans saw what they always see when anyone doesn't immediately heap praise on their club, criticism. Despite there not being any.
So as I said, Starbug, put the bottle down and go to sleep. You're making a fool of yourself.
