Did anyone hear him on the mic then? Blew for a saints penalty and said 'is that 9-8 now Joe?' I'm assuming that's Joe Cobb 4th official. Why does the ref need to know the penalty count? Just ref it as you see it and judge each incident on its own merits. Comes across as trying to make sure it's evened up. Especially as the penalty was when LMS played the ball to nobody and Wigan player who looked onside on his line picked it up. Not suggesting it's a conspiracy or bias, it just makes me wonder if refs are told to even up penalty counts which would be ridiculous. If not why does he need to know the count?

Quote: Judder Man "Think it was last season against Wigan, player Wilkin completed a tackle but got hurt with a blood head injury, Micky Mac acting half took the PTB via his shins into Wilkins face. Ref gave a penalty to Wigan for interference instead of stopping play for the head injury or a blood injury ruling, remember Wilkin getting up off the floor and giving the ref a death stare.

Also, Touch judges get a bit more involved in non-televised games, when its a Sky game they know they have to be 100% correct or they could be undermined by the video ref or the constant replay to find something that "did't happen".'"

In the Grand Final McIlorum deliberately passed the ball at a Leeds player on his knees at the side of him and got a penalty.

There has to be a balance in these things. If we want quick play the balls sometimes we have to accept that the defenders are going to be strewn about the place at times.

I understand what Bren2k means and agree on large part, just that there has to be a balance between the 2 as the play the ball is so massively important these days that you've got to give the defence some leeway too.

Ah but that penalty gave us chance to catch our breath AND if you look at our defensive line as he played the ball it was all over the place. Gave us a good minute and half rest and we scored the decisive try 2 minutes later. Well played MM!

I think on a few occasions the ref is taking his eye off the PTB process, because he is setting the defensive line and checking everyone is on side, he then looks up and finds the ball is lost. Touch Judges don't confirm any circumstance so ref gives benefit of the doubt as interference, same thing happens on a loose carry with multiple tacklers, they just give a 50-50 guess at times.

[quote="Frank Zappa":1sacjrvf]Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe.[/quote:1sacjrvf] [quote="The_Enforcer":1sacjrvf]Most idiotic post ever goes to Grimmy..... The way to restart should be an arm wrestle between a designated player from each side.[/quote:1sacjrvf]:
