Two wrongs don't make a right. we can't just accept referees not knowing basic rules.

Of course it was a penalty,if a player moves off the mark and plays the ball it is a penalty so it stands to reason when a player is held and then decides to carry on he is penalised

And I can't accept how two visually impaired ref assistants miss a ball that's gone between two sticks.

Except that isn't the rule. If the player doesn't hear held the play is brought back for play the ball.

Personally I couldn't tell , looked 50-50 but I trust two trained ref assistants over a dodgy angle on a malfunctioning TV feed.

Even so, you can't justify the penalty at the end by saying 'oh but he got one wrong against us before'. No excuse for that ineptitude in any case.

Is that the rule? I ask as i was always under the impression it was a foul to carry on and is referees discretion to call it back.

If it is set in stone i stand corrected

The rule was posted 1 page ago.

Have you not watched any RL matches for the last 3 years?

I have watched and played the game for years.playing the game i have seen people penalised for carrying on after the tackle has been called complete.of course watching in recent years i have seen plays called back from time to time when it was 50/50 whether the player had heard the call but i saw that as the discretion of the ref himself.

I ask again is it set in stone.no need for the patronising comment

You said two wrongs don't make a right. Have you changed your mind to suit the argument?

Just read this.

Still nothing conclusive reading that imo.You can still take from that,that if the ref thought player had heard the call or had clearly taken liberties he should be penalised which happened today.

You thought Walne completing a tackle was a red card so not sure about your outrage for this one. As stated I was unsure the last penalty was correct at ths time however most neutrals in this thread seem to state it was correct so maybe I was wrong.

Should've been a 42-40 victory to Salford if the touch judges had done their job.

Except I said it should have been a penalty (for reckless and dangerous technique), not a red card. I don't care what 'most neutrals' think, I care about what is correct.

Can you name a single instance in the last 3 years when a player was penalised for playing on after being tackled? The rule was changed for exactly that scenario, and yet Bentham decides to break all convention for the first time in three years, coincidentally when it's in the final minute of a Catalan game to deny them a victory.

And saying things like "Escare deserved to be penalised because he knew what he was doing, cheating Frenchman" is just embarrassing. TBH I don't know why Catalans continue to play in Super League, there's clearly a limit imposed by referees on how much they are allowed to succeed.

LOL.
