That was just unbelievable.
Thaler: Er James, play on, er play on james, WOAH PLAY THE BALL JAMES.
Graham: ARE YOU TAKING THE P**S THALER? |

Tell me about it.
You can just about stomach a bad decision but when a ref tells a player something twice then changes his mind when he does it and penalises him is unbelievable really.

I think he did the same to us against Wire last season at MM, wire player tackled and held up short of the line, thaler calls the tackle, player is released, falls over the try line, try awarded.

Just watching the replay now and spotted another classic from Thaler.
Graham's knock on after interference from Coley. Ref gives a knock on. Graham moans "Never" to the ref, who replies, "You weren't tackled", which of course brings the baffled response from Graham, "I weren't tackled?" to which he replies, "Yeah you weren't tackled and it got knocked out and it's a knock on". Bizarre.

| Quote: Saddened! "Is he now a fully professional referee? Did he go through an interview for this post? An aptitude test perhaps?
Some of his decisions tonight were so wrong you could do nothing but laugh. Almost every scrum was started with either Gareth Hock or James Graham starting a sentance with, "How the f@/% is that.." to which Thaler responded with his reasoning and all players within earshot immediately had the same stunned expression

Fine performance from the officials last night.
Graham was a tad unlucky but the change of call was there to be heard.
For the in-touch try, the TV reply indisputably showed a shadow under the player's knee, which proves it wasn't quite touching the ground at the moment the try was scored. Ye cannae change the laws of physics, Jim. |

Really constructive reply.
How can anyone say it was a fair try apart from the forward pass .
FWIW I thought his knee/leg hit the ground before the side line and had bounced back up so that when he put the ball down his knee/s were off the ground.
How Thaler managed to spot Maurie' high shot on Feka and then miss various others (from both sides) i'll never know.
Another good(?) argument on the thread Thaler is better than we are so we can't criticise. Does that mean we can never berate a player for knocking on because they are "better than us"
Some amazing posts on this thread! |

I could dive full length, place the ball down first and then let my knees touch the ground afterwards. In fact, I've done it and I've seen hundreds of players do it.

Seemed strange to me when he penalised Fasavalu for not playing the ball correctly on one occaision yet let dozens more go unpunished.
It's the inconsistencies of referees within games that winds us fans up.

That was absolutely laughable. The player who made the pass was a meter behind the line and Ainscough caught it about a yard past the line. |
