Or as the ruling is now, breathes in their general direction

| That last incorrect call was very disappointing, the culmination of a series of bad calls from Moore which unfortunately I think did have an impact on the result. St Helens very fortunate indeed.

Works both ways on calls, we should have had a 8pt try and they never checked if McMeeken was onside from the kick. from Saints point of view score should have been 14-4 in our favour. Last 5 mins of the game Saints were holding them out and Catalans were panicking and were as effective as Puff the Magic Dragon.

Just accept that you scraped over the line.
For the neutral, it was a decent watch, the start of the game was absolutely brutal but, Saints were a tad lucky to win.

| What I dislike about SL coverage is the commentators or pundits never criticise referees. Bad calls are just accepted rather than scrutinised and called what they are "terrible calls".
Watch the NRL and they stick the boot into refs all the time when they get it wrong.

There's a balance and there's no need to stick the boot in as such. But, and I know this is perhaps a minority view, the coverage lost a lot when they got rid of Stuart Cummings. There are some calls which are marginal and our current batch of commentators simply don't have the technical knowledge required to properly analyse them.

| Apparently Guasch has thrown his toys out of the pram, he recons that if Catalans reach a final & they have English referee's he will pull his team out of the competition!

The problem with Cummings was he was just a cheerleader for officials. He would always try and justify why an official made a decision even if it was clearly wrong.

Glad he said what he said. Shame the game doesn't have the money to get Australian officials. There must be enough who can't get a gig in the NRL yet but could do with experience of officiating professional rugby league and have a start in super league.
The coote incident was unforgivable and should not have been missed.
The officials should have to explain how that was allowed to happen and be told its not good enough.

| Wonder if all the people crying about McManus’ program notes after the 19 CC final being disgraceful will be up in arms over Gausch accusing the referees of being biased in a newspaper
