True, but I'm sure it would still have been played under similar guidelines.

I don't have a problem with players or coaches speaking their minds at all
post match! If you brake the rules it's not like your gonna be beheaded is it. you get a fine and take it on the chin Aussie coaches do it all the time. I think Keith will be more pi$$ed off by having to pay a fine that's coming his way. Plus if silverwood is like Keith says he's just gonna be gunning for us more now. So maybe it is best to keep your mouth shut.

Harry grashon on look north today refered to the refs performance as interesting, with some interesting decisions? and grashon hates Leeds!

Senior is not supposed to criticise the ref's performance.
However, no such rules rules apply to me and I think Silverwood was crap, verging on the gansonesque.

As a footnote -
Melbourne's style of slowing down the ptb is not the style of rugby I want to watch.
If I want to see inert piles of bodies on the ground, I can watch the six nations.

Like me the bearded one is not usually quick to criticise referees but I share this sentiment.

Cameron Smith's.

there's english rules & international rules

international rules always seem to be something the aussies have been doing that we haven't

i don't like to blame the ref & state @ matches not the ref dropping the ball /missing tackles but the inconsistency of penalties given was something else last night including what appeared to be 3 final warnings wiped clean @ the interval.

Hasn't that been our gameplan of beating Saints in the last three grandfinals though? slow down their ptb?

Really? I can't think of anything more abhorrent than a sport watched by a load of drones not attempting to question or seek answers for injustice whether perceived or otherwise.

I don't think anyone who has a basic grasp of the rules of RL can think that Silverwood had a good game last night. Consistently allowing messy play of the ball making it look, at times, more like amateur RU than top flight league.

I would be very disappointed if players didn't question to be honest - shows a fine passion for the team and game. And yes, he will - and rightly - be spoken to by the RFL but RL players are human with human emotion. Expecting them to maintain a silence at all times is frankly naive.

No, as far as I can remember the game plan was 'kick it towards Mellie.' It's paid massive dividends.

I don't think we lay on for 7 seconds and still control the man on the ground for a further second because people would go in the Bin quick sharp My Lad.

We were basically taken out of the game due to Silverwood Showboating and Playing right into the Hands of Melbourne.

Disgraceful performance..

But that said if Scotty had have been Fit, he'd have scored both those in the Corner and we'd have beaten em fair and square even with Silverwood's antics.

There's always next year boys, because from our Performance Last Night, we are still the Team to Beat!

Give over you lot.

How ironic that Keith Senior is calling other people arrogant! After Sinfield, Senior is the most arrogant player in Super League! Didn't hear him complaining about Diskin and Buderus laying on and slowing the game down when we pummelled you at Belle Vue 2 weeks ago! And then you wonder why fans of all other clubs were rooting for Melbourne last night!
