Nope, not suggesting that at all. And never said that.

Always there to defend them when they do though, eh?

Simply saying fans nees to accept that not only will they be baying for players to go in the bin or off when they deem the tackle is above the legal set limit, they also need to accept that when players they support do the same, they they will get the same treatment and accept it.
Like the rule or not It's what's going to happen.

[exturlhttps://www.rugbyleagueproject.org/seasons/super-league-viii-2003/round-17/london-vs-hull-fc/summary.html[/exturlOn the topic of referees not giving away penalties, dripping the ball or doing anything wrong, who remembers the last minute of this game?
Moran was grubbered ahead with nobody home and was pulled back.....

With Mr Steve arrogance is my middle name Ganson with the whistle, nothing surprises you. Good to see he's now on the way out.

I hope the PTB Tidy up is applied properly. Nrl did it, I thought that was the intention in RFL two seasons back but it was a different focus. Players getting to there feet before placing the ball back down and a decent effort to use the foot. There are quite a few players are going to have to make more of an effort especially regaining there feet

It's time to cut the crap and play tag rugby. We can all stay at home and let the game die.....job done.

Still have to play the ball properly in tag!

What other rules changes are there ? Cake complaining we were heavily penalised in the ruck today in our first runout (14-14 v Cas).

All I saw on twitter was a comment on incorrect ptb. It's pointless the coach complaining about being heavily penalised, its about learning from those penalties and fixing it in training

To be fair, he said he asked the officials at half time what they needed to do differently because they were getting penalised so much.

It's hard to believe Cake was not aware of the rules. It would certainly seem the case that the referee failed to communicate what he/she expected from the players.

It's not a case of not being aware of the rules It's a case of the players adapting to the rules on the day. First proper hit out actually not surprised, just hope there is improvement next week. Asking the question at half time how to improve. The teams at all levels that adapt and start playing correctly will be successful this season.
How many times do you see players still with a knee on ground plant the ball to play it quick? We were particularly bad last year with players playing the ball and then falling forward, 2 or 3 times In same game, then they complained! Rule is pretty clear

It's going to be same next year, when tackle height law changes, for a few players it's going to be painful and hard work. Community game is going to be hard for everyone this year I think.
Teams and players that make the effort to adapt will benefit, its going to be hard for some.
Cas, had advantage yesterday they had already been exposed to the clamp down, just hope london adapt and less infringements next two weeks before real work starts.
