Exactly this, good refs let the game flow Child just blows up for things as and when he feels like it with zero consistency or idea of what's going on.

You really don’t understand RL do you. Been a good first half and Child got them all correct.

There’s time for him to spoil the game but he hasn’t so far.

Speed bump, you really have gotten desperate, you’re a clown.

Yes.



He hasn't and he's applied the law sporadically and has forgotten the directive for the PTB for this season on multiple occasions. Not to mention that forward pass for the Westerman try, but that can be pinned on the Princess St side touch judge, not Child.



The game has been so stop start it hasn't been close to not spoiled. I'm more bored of the clowns whistle than Clarke's verbal diarrhoea.

You don't understand if you think that's been great. That's been an awful first half. Tom Johnstone try being the only good thing. Even as a Cas fan I'm glad that was given a try. Unreal.

Don't think it has been a poor game. There's been some great skill on show but what has been fairly awful is player discipline.

Both coaches must be tearing their hair out (Chris Chester maybe not) over the stupidity on show by some players.

Don't like bigging up the NRL but you hardly ever see them doing the daft things some SL players display.

Cas stop the silly ball steals and they win this I reckon

Nowhere near as classy as the Johnstone finish but that's some balance by Clare to keep that leg in the air.

Clare's a lovely lad but the heart of a pea.

He backs into him, it's soft as hell but Child sent it up as a Try so Grant can't really overturn it.

Apparently not but he's binning him anyway

and Child says it's for "pulling him back in a try scoring situation" so how is it NOT a penalty try when it was sent as one?

I dont understand that decision at all. Pulled him back ??? Benefits my team but I cant graps that.

He backs into him as opposed to pulling him back - it's soft as soft can be but Tim Grant should have gone with the on field call there as there wasn't evidence in the contrary, as evidenced by what Child said when he gave the yellow card.

It's a penalty try because of the on field decision and a sin bin OR nothing at all. What we got instead is hedging bets.
