"I never complain about referees, apart from last year".
He has no problems with the result just the way the ref spoke to his players!
Lots more but what will Powell do when he sits down and reviews the individual decisions and finds out Thaler got most of them right.
Cas lost their cool when they tried to raise the intensity after a poorish start from them.
Crosby and one of their guys got a talking too early doors, Crosby stood there whilst there guy answered back 4/5 times.
From that point they questioned everything and Gale was all over the place.
As for individual decisions from Thaler.
Solomona, no try - correct decision
Gildart half time offside - correct decision as he picked the ball up behind where manfredi knocked on.
Powell try, - correct decision - certainly more of a try than Maguire in last year's gf as he was facing sideways and ball came out sideways.
Dorn no try, - whether you think it was or wasn't (dorn didn't!) Thaler gave a try so Powell needs to blame someone else for that if he thinks it's a bad one. Ps didn't they score nearly straight after so????
Manfredi ball in touch - close one but I think that call goes with defensive team 9/10 so right call.
Sutton try - very difficult one - he went no try and I cN see why, once he did that then no real complaints about decision even though I think he may have just got it down.
Powell moaning about not getting a quick tap after that last one is a real classic!!!
Wigan kept their cool last night and the Yorkshire injustice chip on shoulder brigade in full flow, won.Der if they'd been reading too many forum posts from a.lot of wigan fans saying we were done and dusted, rubbish, wouldn't make top 4, etc. And believed it and couldn't get their heads around a wigan TEAM that clearly have the bit between their teeth.

Amateur psychoanalysis indicates to me that Cas have started to believe their own publicity.
Yes, they are a good team and they seem to have found an exceptional striker in Solomona, but if they thought they were going to dominate last night just by turning up, that was an error of judgement. Rather to my surprise, and certainly to theirs, Wigan did not fall apart under the onslaught of their big guys ... as a result of which they appeared to completely lose their heads.
They actually could have been pinged for a lot more than they were.
Constant backchat, regular offside which was punished nowhere near as often as Wigan's was, messing around in the tackle and kicking the ball away by Solomona (he was a frequent offender all through the game) - and moments of indiscipline, during which they couldn't seem to keep hold of the ball, persistantly put them on the backfoot. It's quite a long time since I've seen a player get so out-of-order with a ref that he's sent from the field. That indicates how pointlessly wound up they were.
The cooler-headed team won, and the fact that Cas and their coach are content to complain about the ref rather than learn a lesson from that doesn't bode well for the future.

Well said fella. Dorn and Gale lost the plot on multiple occasions while our halves remained calm and bossed the game. If they hadn't done that Cas would've won I reckon.

I think you're spot on there, juke. I said elsewhere I thought the Manfredi one was the one where Cas were hard done by, the rest of the big decisions were correct, with Sutton at least as hard by as Solomona, if not more so. To be fair to the ref, Sutton didn't look as if he got close to scoring in real time; a great effort by him.

You know something - Whilst posting that was EXACTLY what was going through my mind - considered editing it but then thought it was long winded enough already !  |

| Quote: Jukesays "IIRC didn't Thaler get dropped because of the Thierry Alibert Fiasco?
Hardly Thaler's fault that he was trying to get Alibert to overturn a ridiculous VR decision by pointing out to the Video Ref that he'd got it wrong, bearing in mind ultimately the ref then said he understood the players frustration but he had to go with the VR call.
As for last night, Typical of someone losing their head.
Bring up and mention a dozen things that give the impression there is an issue but when you dissect each one individually you work out that it wasn't that bad at all.
It's like the people who read stuff on Facebook and Twitter etc. and get all worked up about it because they can't be arrissed to actually research the truth for themselves and go into some kind of faux outrage!
Using the Gildart offside as an example - Sit down Powell with a referee, go through the rule book and then tell us who was right and who was wrong? My mates a SL Official and it's amazing how much they actually do know when you sit down with them!
He's complaining about how Thaler talked to his players, How's about having a look at how his players talked to Thaler?
Numerous examples last night where they questioned what he said multiple times before he told them to "get Away".
Maybe he should have binned more of them?'"
I thought Thaler was great last night, my only gripe with him was why he didn't put Cas on a team warning for backchat. |

One thing that I would complain about is the walking forward off the mark by both teams. A couple of times players stood up and walked forward putting the tackler between them and their own player at the PTB. As a result things were a bit scrappy.

Or Solomona for slapping our players on the head? Of course not.
Tbh if we start sending off players for those kind of things we'd finish with about 3 players on the field. It's like some people expect the players to be robots and play with no aggression whatsoever. |

The RFL do have an unofficial 'underdog' clause in their rule-book whereby if you're: (a) a small club, (b) from Yorkshire, (c) have pulled off a couple of surprising wins, and (d) haven't had your ground renovated since 1968 - then your players are entitled to say whatever they want to the referee and should expect every 50/50 call to go their way.
So I can understand why Daryl thought there were "some baffling things out there" in his post-match interview.

When you put it that way, it makes a lot more sense.

Whats the point of renovating it when they've started building our new one.
Then we'll own 2 grounds more than you. |
