The next video ref decision was absolutely correct. Solomona pulled the Salford winger in the air. Penalty every day of the week.

That Try for me, showed why the VR is a joke now and should be scrapped.

At no point did was that ball ever grounded, but because of the silly system and lack of camera angles available, it had to be given, awful, just awful, thankfully it didn't affect the outcome.

the BBC team on top form today.

Davies can't pronounce Salford, and thinks Sau is called Sa. Wilkins thinks McMeeken is called McGeechan. Woods thinks James Milner is playing hooker for Cas. Christ... it almost makes you miss the Sky Sports team.

Well played Cas (cough, cough) but, the ref + video ref, absolutely shocking.
I'm embarrassed to be a RL supporter.

They go on about coaches bringing the game into disrepute but, for Child not to see him lose the ball and give an on field "Try" and then the VR to watch it slowed down and still give it, is just plain scandalous.

Having said that, Salford's second half performance was utterly abysmal, against 1/2 a Cas team

I can't speyk !

It didn't have to be given at all. The problem in this case wasn't the video ref principle or even the current VR system. The problem was the idiot sat in the video ref's chair.

The video CLEARLY showed the ball off the ground at all times. Only Silverwood couldn't see it, bizarrely.

Shame that the referee decisions are overshadowing the match. Cas played with a bloody prop and a hooker at halfback today - and had to shove on an overweight Danny Tickle on because Massey came off injured with a dislocated kneecap. Insane result given the circumstances.

A bit like people who follow RL, and yet don't know the players' names, it's not like WILKIN is a new name to most of us

Child wasn't the problem at all in that. It's perfectly reasonable for him to think the ball got down initially. The problem is entirely at Silverwood's door.

Cas thoroughly deserved it, they totally out-enthused Salford.

McShane had a superb game whereas Dobson had a mare.

Swings & Roundabouts with the decisions, but out of the three, the officialdom came bottom - just.

Kind of what i meant, most fans would accept that referee's , in real time, make mistakes, but for a full time official to not see anything to suggest that the ball wasn't grounded is disgraceful and unacceptable!

Agreed

If that is the best that a VR can manage, we should do without them completely.
The on field decision process just doesn't work.

Well done Cas Thought Salford were garbage and I thought the best player for Cas today was Dobson
The Dr won't be happy today Also what were the Salford fans holding up with big Nige on it.

The only thing to come out of this game for first time watchers is that the Cas pitch is much smaller than all pitches. Jeeez. How many times did they have to mention this. Oh and also that VR decision hahahahaha. Crazy.

A great, gritty performance from Cas - full credit to them; in a season of injury excuses, they rolled their sleeves up and found a way to win, despite being as badly hit by injuries as many other teams.

That 'try' though - what a joke.
