'Cos we keep getting the same refs and they are pulling us for their pet offences? icon_wink.gif I wonder how many we would concede with Thaler in charge?

Seriously though, the 'technical' offences have been for interference, offside, not playing the ball properly, not square, ball stealing etc. I'm not disputing the correctness of any of these decisions but, as our coach has suggested, just about every play the ball in 80 minutes, can be pinged for one of those offences. It doesn't help when the ref retreats anywhere between seven and fifteen metres for the ptb.

High tackles and talking back are inexcusable - yet we had examples of Griffin apparently assaulting at least two of our players, and Thackeray constantly bending the ref's ear on Sunday, and the best the official could manage was a benevolent smile, to the offender.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that there doesn't seem (in my opinion) to be a lot of consistency from the refs - even from the same one!

Quote: glow "I have and always will voice my opinion on how we have played be it good, bad or indifferent, at this moment you may feel that I’m being over critical, but we have been a joy to watch these last few years and with the new signings we have made, we should be in a position to kick on, and although we do see small glimpses of what we could be capable of, we are not playing anywhere near our potential, you can shove as many facts, figures, and excuses in my direction that you want, it doesn’t change what I see.

I wouldn’t class our defence as great when we let both Bradford and Fev back into it from comfortable leads, I guess we blame Childs for the Fev one, but if Hock did swear at a Referee then that’s stupid and deserves a card and so does Acton’s tripping, so correct decisions. I also doubt when we look back he will have got many of the other decisions wrong as generally I find referees do get more right than wrong, hence why I doubt you’ll find many if any posts from me blaming a Ref.

Oh and whilst I’m on my soap box there is no such thing as a bad off load (unless it goes forward) you have 12 other players (unless we have 2 in the bin I'm not suggesting people should not post their opinions after all, that's why we come on here !
Blaming the Ref is easy of course however, this guy is controversial and our players seemed perplexed by his decisions ! whenever he refs a game its only remembered for his interventions which, are many! I can't remember the last time I saw a penalty at a scrum? this bloke gave three in one match!!
I'm sure AJ would hold his hand and admit had he defended better at Bradford, then we would surely have won?
The 'comeback' at Fev is entirely due their farcical pitch, (its more suited for climbing than Rugby icon_biggrin.gif ) you can be a thousand miles from Fev, hear the half time score and virtually know which way a team have played! invariably the scores even out in the second half so teams collapsing, isn't a fair assumption! Batley's ground is exactly the same! Maybe the LSV could install a tilting system to help Fev and Batley feel more at home icon_lol.gif
For the record, i'm in my 62nd year following Leigh and, this team is definitely not the worst nor, is the Coach!
