Gawd,If you think that was bad,did anyone see the Gasnier try v Manly last week?.....The Video ref (Harrigon) was rested this week after that decision,,,..Must admit though,thought it was a bad call by Mr Smith..

yes and what happened to harrigan after (HE GOT STOOD DOWN FROM HIS POST)

and wire yesterday very poor ref on the field didnt use the video ref when he should have absolutely no consistency someone needs to have a serious look at how our games are being officiated

Yup. Me and the people I was sitting with had sat down bemoaning that he was just short because it was such a terrific effort that he deserved the try. Which wasn't.

Mind you, nor was Westwood's last night. Blatently obvious, copy book double movement, so no Wire fan can come on here bleating.

Why arent all the oppo fans up In arms about the Emmitt no try,strange that.

Because the ball was clearly on Hauraki's arm?



Even if Roby did lose possession backwards, wasn't the tackle complete at that point anyway? In which case it's given as a knock-on regardless of the direction it goes in.

video ref was a joke they are there to make the game more consistent any video ref who makes a mistake when he can pause it and slow it down and watch it over and over should be shot

yes it did even up the emmit try maybe thats why he gave it he realised he made a mistake

Dincha know, us Saints have the RFL in us back pockets. The try was given because we know just how much it would vex off the Wolfs. And it has!

think the point is being missed here,never mind the westwood try,the point is that the technology and smith was a failure.why you ppl are refering to other decisions is beyond me,you afraid to admit that was not a try by a country mile,some have already said if westwoods try had gone to video it would have been wiped off,unless of course smith was video ref aswell.SHOCKING decision.

It was more a try then the one given against us in the grand final last year

the point is theres far too many wrong decisions are being made not just from video refs but from all the officials the touch judges aswell are too old and frail to run the line how can you go upstairs on gardeners try to see if his foots in touch he was clearly a foot away from the line and the 80 year old touch judge was stood right there shocking !

then you look back over the leeds game and every other leeds game this season and every try scored down leeds left through kieth senior comes from forward passes again under the nose of the guy running the line what are these guys getting paid for !

It looked like a try watched live imo,but so did Smiths try in last years grand final.................

Some really bad decisions, but it sums up the game at present, hope we do not get like wrestling before that had it's TV demise!
