I know some decisions need the video ref, but I think a lot of the refs are bottling it and going upstairs

Without the subjectiveness and/or bias of the team supported, what would have happened if that game wasn't on TV?

James Child is a shocking referee, he has no confidence in making a decision and the constant drivel that Cummins comes out with to justify his decisions is bordering on delusional. A guy who is a referee at amateur level and was on the panel for Super League games explained a few things to me regarding the process' used and trained into these guys that is absolutely incredible.

You know its bad when the commentators are completely split about the decisions we rely on their comments as ex-players and referee's to enlighten the decisions made but its now a farce.

it was a push, regardless of whether he was going to get to the ball or not it was a push and therefore a penalty, so right call IMO

the Clark one i thought was right too, for me it was a loose carry initially, then the ball came loose, had that been in the middle of the field, it would no doubt have been ruled a loose carry and knock on, however, i don't think he grounded it correctly anyway, it looked like he didn't know the ball was there and so for me, he didn't ground the ball,
the others were all spot on for me, you just can't push players in the back these days, however minimal, i don't agree with it but that's how it is.

i agree with that.
if he is certain a try has been scored then give it!

hmm Dom Manfredi pushed Murphy with a left and then a right hand in the run up to the Bateman penalty try.......


Maybe Wire were harshly done to after all.....??? unless you think tonight it should have been a penalty to Huddersfield....

They got it right last night like they got it wrong last week.

It is not a non-contact situation. You can touch other players and not be interfering with them and it be play on. The second Atkins one on Makinson last week was fine and should have been a try, last night's was fine and was right to end up in play on and a try.
