I can’t see how the ref could have possibly affected the outcome of last weeks game. Leeds looked like a poor lower table team happy to be there as Warrington went through the motions.

but at the time it was close.i agree we wouldn't have won.
but as I said that's sport. sometimes you get decisions. sometimes you don't. that happens to every team

Let's hope for a fair middle 8's. So far, the ref's don't appear to have been given an RFL agenda.

Fax game will be interesting. As Toronto need 'fast-tracking'. I'll report back.

I heard a little ditty being recited in Carcassone this eveningThere is an old man named Hewer
Whose mind is a moral sewer
All that he needs
Is a honey from Leeds
for decisions against Leeds to be fewer[/i

You're the one branding the RFL as corrupt just because Leeds won a game (by 26 points by the way) you were eager to see them lose. And you want people to have a constructive argument over such a deluded theory?

All teams get decisions going against them. Conceding an erroneous penalty or an erroneous scrum doesn't mean you concede a try and doesn't mean you lose the game.

Lowly Leeds trounce Tired Toulouse !

The crosby dropped ball he dropped it backwards facing his own line, then knocked it backwards nothing wrong with it.
The myler strip/drop was 50/50 at best. Leeds got calls against them but toulouse failed to score capitilse on them. But you forget them, becayse it does not suit your conspiracy agenda.

And thus week Toulouse looked a tired poor championship side in last 20 minutes, but suddenly would have been superior if two debatable decisions went there way. Again toulouse where not robbed there is no conspiracy you just wanted so badly for leeds to lose that it has clouded your judgement to fit in with your agenda.

Leading with the elbow and a deliberate stiff arm tackle that just gets a penalty. Yep, the M8's are starting to run true to form with the SL sides getting away with (largely) unpunished foul play.

Yes, but to be fair to Hewer he did tell him not to do it again (but that's all he did). It wasn't his finest day by any stretch of the imagination.

How many times do you see that type of incident punished in play? Basically never. If being honest who watching really spotted it at the time BEFORE the slow motion replay? Should get a ban on review of video but can understand at the time and from the refs position he wouldn’t see it well enough to judge.

Toulouse lost the game because they had some guys who were brilliant and some guys who couldn't stay with them.
The cross field kicks could have easily led to tries but were dropped. Hall wouldn't have dropped those.

We told at length before the 8's games that the off-field ref would only advise the on-field ref in certain circumstances. Like serious foul play. Conspiracy theory, but maybe not if Leeds are the perpetrators? Deliberate stiff arm = red card, none of this cop-out yellow, or in this case slap wrist.

If you concede 48 points, then the performance by the Referee is irrelevant.....eh Chorley Boy ?
