Most blatant obstruction all night. |

Silverwood needs to be better than that. I know he has to be somewhere and you have to give St Helens some credit for using him, a good old fashioned tactic. But Silverwood's positioning was poor to say the least.

The video referee should be for offside and grounding decisions
It should be the onfield referee who decides the rest

Why? The VR decreases the likelihood of incorrect calls, and that's a good thing, surely. |

I agree. Sky games are just becoming a farce now.
Incident last night: makinson high tackle on Grix and Walsh scores. Why does silverwood let this go on and go to the screen? Talk about being indecisive. |

He allows it to go on because he has the option to have it reviewed. If the tackle is legit, the try stands; if it isn't, it doesn't. I'm not seeing the issue. |

The problem is on a TV game it will get checked everytime yet on a Sunday afternoon it will be a try all day long. We either need to change the ruling or have video refs at every game, it's becoming a joke.

Why is it "a joke"? I don't see the slightest thing wrong in the example given. Didn't detract from the game and got the decision spot on, what's not to like?

Apparently the more we can force the refs to guess and make on the spot decisions the better.  |

Seems simple to me. If someone receives a ball when he is still on the inside of a dummy runner, he is effectively running behind him.
The attacking plays are at fault. They want to run it so close so that the dummy runner is still a distraction. Tough if you keep getting it wrong. Secondly, stop coming to a halt when you reach the defensive line. If most of them kept up their run and carried on through, there would be no chance of a collision. The duty of the dummy runner is to avoid a defending player.

It really is that simple, but it only goes to show the effect the Sky clowns have on viewers! How many times in one game do they claim it's "confusing" or mention the dreaded word "interpretation"? Next thing you have threads popping up saying how the obstruction rule is a joke and needs to be changed.  |
