You a very weird creature, “Leigh”, I’ll give you that

Terrible decision but it will have to stick. You have to draw a clear line somewhere and the referees decision has to be final. It won't be the first questionable goal decision, I've seen a few over the years at KCOM because of the short posts (which have only just been raised to a decent height) but where do you then stop? Unless its the last kick of the game you have already altered the future course of the game as the team in possession would be different on the restart depending on success or failure. Furthermore many goal or miss decisions are nowhere near as clear cut as this one (including the Brough one for the whining HKR fans out there). The only reasonable cause for altering the result would be if some indisputable evidence came up that the ref had some sort of match fixing financial inducement to order it and I really doubt that is likely.

simply saying "where do you stop", yes, it was a bad call, but as they say "it's in the papers"

(not sure why you put "Leigh" in quotes mind)

Could you not find more recent examples? I'm guessing the reaction was down to you naming a player who has been retired for 5 years.

if the hunslet coach says it went over when he knows it didnt, i hope he keeps his gob shut the next time his team lose a game to a dubious decision like from a forward pass/not grounding the ball properly


karma tends to pay you a visit eventually

The officially recorded score indicates it went over. The referee said it went over - to disagree with a ref's decision could potentially lead to a disripute charge. So why would he say otherwise?

he could easily have said 'we got a lucky', not be brash about it and claim it went over when it didnt! the result will stand of course but he makes himself look a tool too

i'd quite like the rfl to flippantly reply, sorry about that, for the next game, the ref will be sat in the stand where the camera was based and ref from there, lets see how much stuff he misses then.

You could have said the same to Bradford Bulls after magic weekend

rugby league is a tin pot sport really, isn't it.

unfair, a tin pot can hold water!

The RFL is simply a blazer club, which is why the SL OWNERS want to move away from it.
