Quote: Him "That wasn't the question William, do you agree that the refereeing was inconsistent compared to previous offences this season?'"
Your loaded question was answered in an entirely appropriate manner.
Quote: Him "I agree with you that Briers shouldn't have received a suspension'"
Indeed, it was a trivial incident which was met with the usual level of faux outrage from the usual suspects on Sky. That's their job... to over-hype incidents (trivial or otherwise) and blow them out of all proportion. It surprises me NOT that the idiotic audience (whom they specifically pander to) should enthusiastically lap up all their buffoonery with such relish and treat it as gospel.
Quote: Him "10 minutes in the sin bin would have been perfectly adequate.'"
Why? Because Briers effort was so weak?
Quote: Him "Lets not heap too much praise on Briers though shall we? After all it wasn't biff was it?.'"
Correct. It wasn't biff by anyone's standards.
Quote: Him "LIt was a cheap shot on a player with his back turned.'"
Ablett's back wasn't turned. The evidence is there to see, unless you exist in SmokeyTA world. Why do you insist on making things up? Ablett was side-on and had his eyes focused on Briers. He took evasive action once he saw Briers winding up for a handbag swing.
Quote: Him " A penalty and 10 mins for Briers. End of problem.'"
I'm not a fan of sanitised, softcock Super League and the establishment of bans for nothing incidents such as this. Perhaps you hadn't noticed? These are play-off fixtures, not namby-pamby meaningless regular season dross with refereeing interpretations to suit the prevailing sanitised wind. There ought to be a major step up in quality and intensity and refs ought to be applying more lenient interpretations of the rules on misbehaviour under such conditions.
Quote: Him "I'd agree on Leeds softcockery though. They should have gone flying in at Briers. Bring back Barrie Mac.'"
Ablett should be dropped from the squad for cowardice on two occasions... during the trivial Briers incident and during the next set of six following the penalty when he crapped himself and lost possession at the sight of a few Warrington forwards aiming up before they even got there. 28 minutes and 58 seconds of game time had elapsed if you're interested in watching that gutless effort again.
