Do you not think that the obstruction rule has gone a bit daft now?

There was nothing wrong at all with that Warrington try before - Matt Diskin just made a bad call.

Neither was there anything wrong with the Leeds try as Lee Smith had his eyes on the ball.

It has now become ridiculous IMO. Dummy runners are only doing their job. They fool the defense and yet when they do we rule the try out for obstruction just because the defender has made a bad call?

I admit the game is consistent with it which is what many ask for but I still think we need to apply common sense in certain situations and only if a player is blatantly obstructing the player should we rule a try out.

It seems to me we're just looking at reasons to rule out a try.

From what I can see, Clarke changed course and stepped into Diskin.

Had Calrke not taken an (albeit slight) step to the right, the try stands.

I think both were ridiculous calls it's almost like they are trying to limit the amonut of contact in the Sport the way some of these calls are going lately, Then there was the Senior "incident" that Phil [i"I Hate Leeds"[/i Clarke reffered to which was nothing but a dummy run that he claimed should have been a penalty!, Even Steve said there was nothing in it, Also i don't know if it was just me but Jamie Peacock looked like he had stepped offside during the Harrison "No Try"...

Another ridiculous call by THE OFFICIALS!, There was nothing in the Dummy Run by JJB and Rob Burrow just found the gap superbly and once again Stevo didn't agree with the decision...

Apart from the fact that the defender would have been stood in the gap that Burrow ran through you mean?

I strongly suggest that you watch said incident again, The quality of officiating leaves little to be desired in Super League...

Is that's the case then the sport is turning into a joke, No dummy runs and unable to challenge for the ball in the air, Sounds fantastic...

You can not run at a defender and take him out of the game, nor can you jump at a player without making an effort to go for the ball.

disagree about the clarke one, i immediately said it was obstruction when it occured, though when you look at the replay diskin has got clarke fixed in his view and moved out to tackle him before the ball even left the PTB,

How can Clarke be obstructing Diskin from getting to Harrison when he was on the opposite side of Diskin to where Harrison was.

If Diskin turned around 180 degrees he would have had nothing but fresh air between him and the try scorer?
