I couldn't make the game but I was messaging a couple of mates who we normally go to the games with and they had no idea what he was blowing for half the time. Even with the assistance of commentary on TV it was unfathomable. As you say, everyone was giving different reasons for the supposed infringement. Some of the "not squares" and "incorrect play the balls" were laughable. It's a bit of a cliche but it seemed like he'd make his mind up to give a penalty in advance and then fabricate a reason to justify it. It seemed like barely a set of six completed without some intervention from the ref.'"
I considered just going having a beer behind the stand in the first half because I couldn't be bothered watching him anymore.
One thing I will say though, is that every ref has battered us so far, so we probably need to do better ourselves. We're right up near the top of the penalties conceded table yet we've played a game less. I think we're averaging about 10 per game and that is far too high, even if the refs are in that mode of testing out the new whistles they got for Christmas.
It at least goes against the old line that the best teams get all the calls. It's worlds away from the days of Leeds conceding a couple of penalties a game and the refs apologising to Peacock and Sinfield when handing them out. |

I think we'll see a full strength team. I just get the impression Peet wasn't all that impressed with 'key players' as he put it. It's a risky strategy in this day and age with potential HIAs and bans but I feel we'll look to build some fluidity as we looked underdone v Salford.

I despair at some of the people on here.
No idea how you manage to watch games every week.
It's always the people you most expect too.
And yes, I worship Chris Kendall as a god. He's biased, not you, and I love it.

No trees were harmed during the creation of this post.
However, a number of electrons were mildly inconvenienced.
