| Sometimes it's not your day.
Big knock on by Warrington before the first try and that changed the whole game.
Great first 20 from Warrington after that they were poor and there for the taking. Unfortunately everything Hudds tried didn't come off and Robbo had a stinker.

| got to agree with you austin, the rfl set themselves up every time, regardless of wether the VR got it right or wrong is irrelevant(not having seen replay yet so dont know) they shouldnt put them in that position.

Even with a 50/50 people are gonna suspect foul play, Lunt's 1st try was never a double movement!!
ATEOTD we got to another final and froze again, but NB has not done bad in his 1st season with a C/C final appearance and top 4 finish at least.
Lets see if the RFL have owt to say on the appointment of the officials? doubt it.
Warrington were up for it and on the day, the best team won but if the knock on try had been chalked off and Lunt's legitimate try given it may have calmed our nerves and been a different ball game?
Who knows but well done RFL on another almighty cock up!!!'"
Didn`t Ganson referee the Saints Cup Final last year or am I mistaken?
Ganson has also reffed Saints vs Leeds as well.

Yep, he did. But not the Grand Final. That was Klein.
Quote: chapylad "Ganson has also reffed Saints vs Leeds as well.'"
He certainly has. Last season he showed a red to a Leeds player too when he spear tackled Cunningham, so that was nice and controversial, as you can imagine! But Bentham reffed us the last time, which was probably good because it got feisty, very feisty, and he dealt with it very well it has to be said.

| All very good points well made but could you see that garbage game with the round ball putting themselves in that position?
Man Utd vs Chelsea FA Cup final and the football league decide a ref from Manchester or Chelsea will take charge? I think not.
IMHO some of the calls were way off the mark, suppose if I was a Wire fan I would have a differen't opinion but the VR was not from Huddersfield.
I know people who have now been put off watching a RL match ever again, strong feelings I know but I sometimes know how they feel.
I for one will be getting a season ticket again next year as I have watched thru the bad times, but I can understand people not wanting to waste money when the RFL seem to shoot themselves in the foot at every opportunity!!!
It's not sour grapes, as I have said before the best team on the day won and we did not turn up, but with differen't calls the game could have turned out differen't.
Alibert as video ref and we could have said human error but with Bentham from Warrington, well I will not go as far as to say cheat but the RFL have left themselves wide open again.
We just have to now put it behind us and work towards the play offs and then build again for next season and the fans that do decide to re-new or buy season tickets have to bite their tongues again and get behind the boys as much as we can.

not an excuse for the defeat --you beat us on the day --but if you believe that of a man who gives a knock on when it goes behind a man when hes stood on the pitch -- where do I buy a pair??
You wont change my opinion of Cummins and Co!!
Overall -week in week out -- very very poor and an insult to the game !

| The truth is, if some dubious decisions had of gone against Wire and we ended up winning how many of us would be slating the ref or video ref? Let's just have it right, we lost to a better team on the day and as a club we will be stronger for the experience.

| Funny how not one post mentions Kings disallowed try when he took the ball before Cudjoe had control of it, hence it could not be a ball steal. And since when can it be a knock-on when the ball comes off the feet rather than the hands (Vinnie Anderson after his charge down).
Huddersfield had some unfortunate decisions go against them, but then so did Wire.
Good luck in the playoffs, and (assuming we don't perform some kind of miracle and get there) I hope you repeat your semi-final success and make it to Old Trafford. If you do, maybe you will go one better!

| Was that David Hodgsons?
When he put that down I never thought it was a try till I saw it on the VR, then I knew it was for certain.
The only VR decision that was 100% wrong was our 2nd dissalowed.
99 times out of 100 that would be given.
If the VR wasnt there it would be given.

Monaghan had an almost identical 'try' (hand on the side of the ball and the ball 'pings' out as soon as it hit the ground) disallowed by the Video Ref at Knowsley Road last season.

| Yea that's it hat's off to the better team. I'm not bitter about the decisions, because we all know these things swing in roundabouts and who know's what decision may go our way in the playoffs. Also we didn't lose that game because of the the Ref or VR, we lost because we were below par and Wolves were superb.

| Sadly, someone always has to lose in a final. I'm just glad it was our teams who were there.
Most of the complaints about the Hudds fans seem to be coming from your own corner. If you consider the position your club was in just a decade a go, your second cup final in 3 years with over 10,000 attending each is certainly a fairly big feat.
As for the 2 decisions from Benthead.....I personally believe they were right. Momentum had stopped on the first and I've seen less clear obstructions given than the second one, although as has been said elsewhere, the rules on that need clearing up a bit.
King's no try was a correct one and the only major error I think made on the day was when Hicks knocked on as he felll to the floor while catching. I'd probably have different views had we not won and those decisions had gone against us though.
I think the event was an excellent advert for the sport and showed that you can have a high quality game without the need for the so called big clubs.
With Nathan Brown, you have a coach who can take you places and I personally believe that it's going to be the Brown, Smith and Morgan teams that are going to continue to break the big four monopoly in the next few years.
