| Got to admit I was relieved when he stayed on the pitch. Been discussed at length but Silverwood was awful for both teams last night - bottled it time and again.

Actually he clocked 'em both. The front angle shows it best but he managed to clobber both men at the same time.
Horrible refereeing last night. Silverwood was terrible. Westwood should have got 10 minutes, Lauaki should have walked. Morley should have had 10 just to lessen his head count...Briers' offside, Hock's obstruction, Charnley's 'interference' at the jump(wtf!). I could go on but it's pointless.

Must admit, the Charnley incident was bemusing. If he was interfering, why did Silverwood not allow the advantage, rather than pull the Wire player back. I assumed at the time he was going to give offside against the Wire player. Refs in RL do not allow enough time for advantage to be played, they are too whistle happy.

Atkins was offside so he couldn't play the advantage and went back to the first offense by Charnley.

| Whatever the arguments about the incident, Westwood's peformance was phenominal;the man's a machine the best second rower in Super League.
If we get the new stadium in time he's the man to lead out his home town club at Newmarket.

He's not even the best second rower at Warrington (IMO).

That then goes back to the original issue of what exactly was the offence committed by Charnley? He was competing for the ball, the Wire player knocked it down to an offside team mate and the ref penalises the Wigan player.

| Thought Westwood had a tremendous game, he kept Warrington in the game in the first half and he was out on his feet at half time. As for his swinging arm, sorry but he should have knocked Lauaki out. Leading with the elbow used to be a straight red and as he quite rightly pointed out to Silverwood when they had their conversation Wigan players had been sticking their forearms and elbows in the tacklers face all night.

| The Wire players had been sticking elbows and forearms in the Wigan attackers all night, yet this wasn't picked up...

Benny Glassjaw couldn't knock a fly out.

| Quote: mistermoo "So according to Silverwood, one man can lead with a forearm/elbow and THEN carry out a spear tackle, another man can swing an arm to the head of an opponent. Then last week a man can attack a player off the ball. All of these men can stay on the field and be banned later, but if a player interferes at the PTB he is sent from the field for 10 minutes??
What is wrong with this game????'"
to be fair, Its my understanding that fosters offence was just the straw that broke the camels back, saints were warned not long before that about their persistent offending, it just happened to be foster that commited a foul minutes after that.

That's fair enough and I have no complaints about Foster's sinbinning. But for the same ref to allow the players to get away with what they did last night was wrong.
