Quote: meast "He said that the referee allowed us, not Leeds, but us, to slow the ruck down by messing around and that contributed to a poor game in his opinion.
Both sides were as guilty as the other but he chose to suggest only Huddersfield were guilty of it and that the ref let us do it. Very poor stuff from a victorious coach IMO'"
Yes his quote is very disappointing and a pretty weak attempt at deflecting attention away from his own sides activity.
They targeted Brough with comments, head pats etc, trying to get a rise out of him. I would seriously take the armband off him now, even if he remains captain within the group, so he does not talk to the ref at all even if he does direct the team. It is now a weakness being targetted by the opposition with a view to getting his hackles up so much that he talks himself into 10mins.
