| Wakefield won the second half 16 0, no robbery. Gareth Hock decided to act like a half back at times in the last 20. Liam Finn cool as you like. Phil Clarke will be getting his brother into Tom johnstone ....

If your guy hadn't taken the attacker out in the air not only would it have been over the line but also under the sticks, but hey that doesn't support your red and white one eyed argument.

| Wakefield were woeful in the first half, maybe it was a hangover from the week before, but they certainly didn't come out firing.
The knock-on decision was a really poor call, I thought I was watching a N.R.L. game.
But the tries in the second half were well taken, & all with a fair degree of skill.
I'm sure many Leigh fans are undoubtedly miffed, but they shouldn't get too downhearted, whereas any Wakefield victory is just like applying a clean dressing to a gaping wound.

The head shot on Miller should have been a sin bin (at least), it was certainly worse than the challenge that got Kirmond binned at Leeds last week.

Wakefield deserved to win last night, but you can't be serious with this comment.
Have you watched the game back? If this is the same tackle I'm thinking of, then it wasn't even close to being a high shot. And you want him sent off for it!
The ref didn't determine who won or lost last night , but he certainly did give some baffling calls at times. The Hampshire knock on, that Hock high tackle and the ball strip on Johnstone that he let play on jump out in my mind.

| As pointed out the ref got things wrong for both teams, Wakey made more advantage of this and deservedly won the game.
Although when Wakey got beat by Hull, they couldn't see it that way.
Hock proved why he shouldn't be in contention for England, too inconsistent and their a a lot better props out there than him.

Remember the ball doesn't have to be over the line, it only has to tough one blade of grass.
Leigh also scored of a Johnstone knock on, where the ball was clearly stripped.
Do you get it now, selective viewing.
Wakefield played the second half much as Leigh played the first, with greater speed, strength and execution.
It was always going to be close and Trinity got home, just.

I am no Leigh admirer by any means, but that was never a high tackle in a million years. It was a perfectly good, clean hard tackle.

And Burrow gets his head knocked off most weeks. Sometimes they blow a penalty, other times they don't. That's every game in every pro/semi pro league.

Nothing wrong with the tackle at all, he hit his arms! From a neutral point of view I thought the ref made some shocking decisions for both sides and they pretty much evened out and Wakey found a way to win where Leigh couldn't. Wakey deserved the win IMO

| In general play, refs often have to make calls based upon imperfect views. If Hock had chosen not to swing an arm at head height there'd have been no penalty. Same scenario for Hampshire's "knock on". Yes, the ref got it wrong but Hampshire's equally at fault for dropping the ball in the first place.
F***, I'm starting to sound like Leaguefan

Having watched it back, it was a high swinging arm and he didnt make contact with Millers head (only because Miller's arm was there though).
It looked a lot worse from the stand and there wasnt any slo mo to see
One thing that it wasn't, was a "perfectly good clean hard tackle".

| I'm sure in previous matches Leigh had themselves some contentious decisions awarded in their favour. Swings and roundabouts and all that.
