Sadly Mr Hicks likes to be the centre of attention, his smug grin personifies the man.

How can hicks give a decision he cannot be sure about? He's guessed that he's gone out because even on the replays it's not 100% clear if he had.

Charnley back chatting and leaving a one man overlap on the far side was very poor play.

Wasn't a fan of the ref either, although I suppose he won't be that bad when I watch it back.

The same guy didn't send Tony Williams off at Wembley

Armchair experts to the fore.

Leaguefan blindly defending officials regardless of performance to the fore.

think he got it right BUT would and aussie linesman in Australia of given it against them?!

I thought Rugby League was dead to you?

Impossible to tell, to be honest - even on the replays. You have to go with the bloke who was nearest.

Think what saved Sam if you see it again is the refs view is blocked but the body of Ferres so I don't think he saw it properly.

What do you mean? The way Slater threw the last world cup final away!?

Hicks' reputation goes before him, so it is assumed he got it wrong. It really should have gone to the video ref., but that was Thaler, so hey-ho !!
