Slightly OT does anyone know if it is possible to leave your car overnight in the JSS car park and if the free coaches are returning to the JSS or dropping off in town?

But Ref's shouldn't affect how well we play !! ...a refs decision doesn't make us drop the ball or miss the tackles, the players do - if a ref gives a wrong penalty against us the players dont think right i'll drop the ball next time cos of that !!.

No but it does lead to them being confused over what they can and can't do, it makes them hesitate in their defence and in attack they might think "hang on, didn't I just get penalised for doing that" instead of thinking what the next play is

Remember a season or two back away to Wire in the playoffs when Ganson smashed us of the park in the first 20 with his whistle, then totally changed his reffing

Yup goto say refs have even been inconsistent on the actual game day! Starting pinging things they were letting go first half and vica versa!
And how many times has a big call been wrong then the next min the ref gives the team wrongly done by some cheap pens.
And.....how about the balancing of pens! A team gets hammered by the ref for 60 mins with say 9 pens to 1 the game is gone on the score board then they get 5 pens to balance it up! We have seen this at the giants a fair few times! However even with the ref against us we seem to stand tall!

Just watching the Leeds cc game again can't believe what goes unchecked. 5 mins in!
Maguire jumps to hit Eorl high,
Maguire on the floor kicks Koppy in the stomach
Ablett slaps Koppy round the chops

Only thing picked up is a boarder line late challenge on robbo. And that really was just boarder line!

Yeah the reffing in the Leeds game was shockingly in favour of them - then again when isn't it.

McGuire should have walked for his hit on Crabtree, especially in the context of recent red cards.

But we know all ref's are capable of making wrong calls that can affect the game but the way we as fans make a big deal about who the ref is in the days leading up to the game is silly, it makes no difference if we have Child, Hicks, Bentham, whoever - they shouldn't be a talking point before a game.

good job we won't have ganson as VR after today

He's not ? Thanks, you've just made my day

I've been worried about the VR since last night. I thought I'd read it was Mr G. I feel much better now.

Frikken quality.

A great confident TEAM performance today. Still a few silly handling errors but no weak positions we looked good right across the field! Wonder where all the bulls fans are that couldn't wait to get on here a few months ag
