Yes he was pointing to other incidents over the field that hadn't been punished by bentham but don't let that get in the way of those chelping!!

Regardless of who it was aimed at finger wagging, shoulder shrugging and outstretching arms when with or walking away from chatting with the official are disrespectful and a dangerous road to travel.

Had Ganson been stood there, it would have been yellow minimum and red to follow if it carried on.

As an example of this when Ganson binned Calderwood in the FE game last season he said, 'don't clap or the colour changes' and when binning Senior in the same incident 'don't say anything, you've been very lucky.'

Last night Sinfield weighed up his opponent but he'll need to be careful if he gets frustrated in the future.

You are entitled to your opinion, and as you said "I obviously know nothing about the game of Rugby League" what is also obvious is that you could have not have seen Sinfield play very much. Had you seen him show his many skills over the years you would understand why he is so highly rated by most fans, players and coaches

As captain he is entitled to ask for clarification of the refs decisions. As the video shows Bentham was taking Leeds back more than 10m and then penalising them while overlooking Hull KR offsides. In many cases Leeds were guilty but Mr Bentham had a one eyed approach. eg: He penalised Leeds for not having both feet touching the try line which you see every week from every team. Why did he only ping Leeds for this? Sinfield was polite to the ref and stuck up for his team and fans at what appeared to be bias. Peacock looked livid and had he been captain could have got a yellow card.

With the Leeds blinkers off I think Sinny could have, and on most days would have, handled himself better with the ref. He looked a little visibly too affected by some decisions which is a little out of character for his level head. The finger wagging was not acceptable, regardless of frustration levels or decision quality. This is rugby not football.

IMO Disko was lucky not have been given 10. On another night or with another ref I think he might have.

Happy to put it down to a bad day at the office for some but if it continues BC will need to enforce some discipline and stomp it out.

Sinfield has a terrible attitude to refs IMO, no respect whatsoever and IMO he came across as a spoilt little b***h who can't keep his gum shield in for more then a minute last night.

i thought the throwing of hands in the air was classed as dummy spitting???

i think the ref didnt have it in him to sin bin Diskin with him being one of your top players so he picked on McShane instead.

oh dear...

They should take a leaf out of James Graham's and Paul Wellens' book.

I thought Sinfield was chancing his arm being so strident but I can understand his frustration at the penalty count when HKR were clearly always on side and square at the marker. All he was asking for was a fair crack of the whip.

IMO Sinfield was within his rights to question Bentham why Leeds appeared to be getting a rough deal in the penalty count but pointing his finger at the Ref was out of order.

after reading the posts on this subject i have come to a conclusion.. that theres a lot of bulls conkers written on here.. people were screaming for the ref to be hung for his descisions during the game and that was coming from both sets of fans

then everyone comes on here and slates sinny for having a word..

he did what needed to be done .

it did look at one point that the only descision we were going to get was wether we went and queued for burgers or beer tho
