What was wrong with the way Child reffed the game ?, said as much after that he policed the 10 very well today and generally was excellent on much of the game play, touch judges were inconsistent to say the least.

Thought Childs did exceptionally well today. One of the best displays this season. [Even though Hull were offside at every PTB.]

Childs made a couple of howlers but nothing that made him stick out as particularly bad. Bear in mind the last ref we saw was Hicks who, frankly, was utter gash.

Just for clarity Dave, every side at every PTB is offside mate.

Compared to Hicks, hes the best ref there has ever been.

Hey up what about tha lad then?

the winning side is always going to say the ref wasnt bad but i had a rovers fan with me who came along to watch the game and he said that child was awful even joined in with the cheat chants lol
very poor display from him but referes can do as they please nowadays

It was evenly poor.

But he was lightyears ahead of the clown we had on Friday.

spoke to a giants fan on the way out about childs, we both agreed he was poor and is still a very poor referee, didn't mention he was to blame for our loss did i?

Althought he missed one or two thing how exactly did he cheat ?.

He gave both teams a large 10 which was penalised a couple of times both ways, he gave forward passes forward, knock ons knock ons and generall had a decent game i thought.
Obviously you lost so saw the game differently but i cant think of anything untoward that could possible have him down as a cheat!!!.

which ones? you mean the complimentry penalty he gave us in the last 30 seconds that was on our own line!?

the only penalties we got were for a head high and obstruction that tickle kicked for our points

and who mentioned cheating??

someone mentioned joining in the cheat chants ...it wasn't aimed at you BTW, top of the page.

name fans who don't chant cheat at games? hudds fans use to be regulars a few years ago!

As soon as I saw hull kicking for two I knew we had them running scared-and so would the players. Child's was ok but did make some howlers-but did so for both sides-hull slowed the ptb so much in the first half and it was let go -hull were good in defence-our handling was abysmal, hulls kicking game was good esp early on but hull had no attacking flair. Can't wait to get ,odonnell, fooey, gilly and George back for next week.

Mate, I aren't being funny but you must have been watching a different game to me. He penalised you guys 4 times in the entire game,a token 2 in the last minute. No team is that squeaky clean to only commit 2 penalties in 79 mins. I think the guy is a disgrace, don't get me wrong you guys deserved the win, and were the better side, but you aren't gonna concede many points if you can get away with being offside like any team would. I'm still scratching my head with him judging how Seymour knocked on that kick in the 1st half.

I'm just proud of the defence, desire and work ethic FC showed today. Last season under Agar, we would have been 20 points down in that first half. Overall a great game of Rugby League, with dropped ball being down to some brutal hits. Congratulations on the win, I do think the score flattered you guys. You lot have a good side there. Best of luck this season, except for this sunday when I hope you're s**t, lol
