I guess he won't be on the invite list to yer summer BAR-B-Q'S then mate

I think i'm getting a damn good ignoring mate!!

Even if Ablett had have ripped Ganson's head off and took a dump in his neck, I would have excused that behavour, for the penalty given against him for the "alledged" trip on Drew. That one was clear as day, with Ganson have the clearest view that Drew dived.

I don't think you can excuse ablett mate,we all know what to expect from this ref especially the players and whilst i agree it must be really frustrating there's no defence for his reactions.
Although ganson didn't react when grix had a go at him when adjudged to have knocked on!!!

I see yer point and it's clearly as confusing as it is annoying but in our sport we don't want to see reactions like that no matter how hard it is to "bite yer lip".
In the past the team has managed to rise above it and their rugby do the talking which i wish they would do now plus as a whole our discipline is poor anyway and we should concentrate on rectifying that rather than chelping at the ref.

Ablett seems to have a habit of laughing at penalties he gives up, and laughing at mistakes he makes

I cant remember a time in the last 5 years that we have personally experienced such inconsistent decisions against us.

I am not saying they are wrong decisions. I mean I have mentioned previously that I think we are one of the worst for holding down, especially JJB, Senior and Peacock.

But I do think we are getting penalised for things, that other teams are not. And the players are obviously feeling this frustration, which must be hard, considering the work they are putting in on the pitch.

I want to rip gansons head off and take a dump in his neck.

My concern with our defensive system is that we don't chase from marker.

We get numbers in the tackle, peel of slowly - all fine so far!, then leave the last players lying on top of the grounded player who is them pulled of the grounded player by the 2nd to last player to get up (the 2nd marker), the last player to get off then goes to first marker and then does nothing.

Shouldn't the first marker generally chase the ball receiver and put some kind of pressure on to stop teams getting a roll on? we don't and our opposition easily make yards.

I would agree with that and on the last tackle we don't apply any pressure to the kicker, even when Brough put the ball straight out he was under no pressure.

The kick was charged down once on Friday and was close to being charged down on a few other occasions. Unfortunately Wakey got the ball back and had 6 more tackles from within 15 yards of their last tackle.

The old "check and chase" system? Where the first marker would chase out at the first receiver and the second marker would hold and cover the acting half?
No one plays that anymore because teams put such quick players at hooker. I tried it for a while, and we were getting killed by hookers who could send the first marker off chasing and then beat the second.
Everyone plays split markers to just cover off the acting half, and they then fill in the line once the ball has moved away.
