One for the video ref ?
Not sure why the Ref wouldn't do that unless he was 100% it missed.

looks over to me.

I honestly don't know, moments like that make me think you must be mad to be a referee! I think we just have to trust and respect the official to make a decision.

50/50

out of all the games the ref wasn't wearing one of those head cams!

Looks ok to me

No goal for me, was heading over but seemed to curve away and just goes outside the post. Tough call to make, reckon Bentham just about got it right.

I think only sky can afford to use them. Should have gone to screen though.

Ian Smith was on GMR and pointed out that Phil was right under the ball directly inline with the post. Just watched the game and he was definitely there and watched the ball all the way. I have seen it from two camera angles, one I would say yes the other I would say no. Smithy said that the video would not have had an unbiased view as Phil had had so his decision would have been the best.

"if in doubt...give nowt"

Watched it a couple of times from rear and front camera views. From the rear looks over and from the front looks just wide. Don't know that the video ref could have come up with a conclusive decision that would have changed the original call of the ref of no goal.
I think Mr Bentham was in the perfect position to make the call and would have a had a far better perception of when the ball crossed the plane of the line than can be gained on a flat TV screen. I'm backing the ref on this one.

Weird how it looked over from behind the gol but not from the front angle

No goal for me ,if my memory serves me correct, didn't Brough used to play for Hull ,and wasn't it Brough that missed a last minute conversion for them at Leigh when we were in super League, it was no goal but he complained bitterly at the time to the ref (Ganson) that it should have been given a goal, which would have given Hull a win instead of a draw, so he has a history of moaning then, if it wasn't him then I apologise.

I think you're right, peawapp, it was Brough.

Don't remember him making an issue of it though. It was a touchline conversion and looked for all the world it was going over until it dropped under the bar.

This was all after Ganson had robbed us when we found touch on the Hull line on the last tackle and instead of a scrum he gave a turnover to Hull. Richard Horne went virtually the length of the field and it was the Aussie winger (forget his name) who scored wide out.

Even then the controversy wasn't over. We dropped a goal to win the match just as the hooter sounded and the DG was disallowed for being after the hooter.

Don't know why but that game is probably my most vivid recollection of our SL season.
