who are this yrs officials for the challange cup final ?

Nothing public yet.

They usually release referee appointments on a Tuesday.

thanks for that ,poss ganson ?

Doubt it - he got it last year.

I think Thaler might get it.

rumour on our site (wire) is aliburk

Anyone so long as it isn't Silverwood. We can't possibly risk having the Wembley showpiece marred because the official is too deaf to hear the hooter.

At least he'll be poor for both sides.

Ganson it is then.

Steve Ganson is the best referee in Super League.

i agree with ABP !!

I'd have to agree, yes the guy likes to be the of attention but he doesn't mess about, you always seem to get a good open game with Ganson in charge. I just hope he doesn't penalize Huddersfield to much for slowing it down against wire.

I'm not quite sure that makes sense??

Agreed, best in the league by a mile, and he seems to have mellowed a bit this season.
Does not say much about the other 5, as I assume the RFL would have wanted to give someone else a chance this season.

He is, but when he makes a bad decision or has a bad game it normally costs one of the teams. The difference between his best and worst is too far but he is still better than the rest.

The best thing about Ganson is even if he makes a decision you don't agree with, he makes the same decision consistently for both teams so no arguments can be made.

One thing I don't like having spoken to the man himself is that he is told to even up the pen count in the second half by the man at the top.
