Quote: chapylad "Funnily enough I actually thought Silverwood sided on Wigan last night.
You were holding down in every tackle, forearms in the face, milking penalties . Yet we got penalised for holding down.
From where I was stood it did look like Sinfield knocked on but watching it again it looks to have gone backwards.
Probably one of your try's came from a push on Briscoe?
Was it really a trip? And would he have scored? Sin binning at worse for me.
Can SOL tackle below the shoulder? Maybe not.
Bowen as always played well against us. We missed Aiton big style last night.
Other than that I think the scoreline just about reflected the game.
As for Silverwood I really hope he does not get any more big games that Leeds are involved in.'"

I find it amusing that all supporters think that the opposition are always holding down, lying offside etc but yet they don't see that their own team are doing it as well! Leeds were way offside most of the time, got away with lying on, forward passes (as usual) etc. I am not complaining as it is part of the game and up to the refs to manage.

For the Sinfield knock on the video ref had plenty of time to decide if it went backwards or not and so we have to accept the decision. What I did find amusing though was Stevo's commentary saying that it clearly went backwards! There was nothing clear about it at all other than it first appeared to be a blatant knock on. It took detailed analysis to decide that actually it didn't (as far as the video ref is concerned). The guy is just a biased Yorkshire idiot.

Yes it did look like a push on Briscoe but not deemed enough to disallow the try.

Definitely a trip. Whether it justified more than just a penalty I am not sure.

I think you are being harsh of SOL. He occasionally tackles below the shoulder demonstrating that he CAN do. icon_smile.gif

Aiton was a big loss for Leeds and I thought they coped better without him that I thought they would.

Few strange calls either way but that's life. Was the sinfield knock on any worse than the smith knock on at your place the other week.

Question marks over both Farrell tries and the hall and McGuire tries.

Leeds deserved the win. Our pack was tragically bad once again. What happened to the good old days when prop forwards would just run the ball in?

As for Silverwood, nine times out of ten that Sinfield knock on would be given on the field, it wasn't. That's life, you win some you lose some.

Also, if it wasn't for Silverwood being inept, we wouldn't have beat Leeds at home last month. Swings and roundabouts.

The Smith knock-on was different in that it was definitely a knock-on but was missed by the officials. icon_smile.gif

We all like to moan about 50:50 calls which go against our team, especially when we lose. Your balanced view does you and your team credit, I salute your sporting attitude eusa_clap.gif

I think if we (all teams) assume at the start of a season, that some times we will win a tight match off the back or "errors" by the officials and some times we will lose the same way and also accept that over the season(s) it will even itself out. We won't be far wrong.

Still a good moan can help in the short term as well icon_wink.gif

I was more disappointed last night that the game didn't quite live up to the potential of it being a top two clash with all to play for. Perhaps they are saving a more intense and exciting game for the play-offs? Maybe the GF?

Spot on. I think it shows a lack of intelligence to see both sides. For a classic example look at the thread on the Whinos board about Wigan. I doubt the combined IQ of most Leeds fans on that thread would beat their score last night.

I thought the weather spoiled the game , so I would not read anything into last nights result. I do think Wigan along with us are the best two teams in the competition, now that saints seem to be imploding.
Maybe Huddersfield might surprise a few people.
What puzzles me is a top four team without a decent goal kicker is strange. Bearing in mind the past masters you have had. Richards, Botica etc. If smith had kicked his goals last night the outcome may have been different . Whilst Smith is a reasonable player i am not convinced he is up to Wigan standards.
Just think about us and you at old trafford, two minutes to go ,you have to kick a goal from the touch line to win the match. Would you rather have smith or sinfield.

I'd rather have my Grandma kicking it than Smith.

The Sinfield knock on was a joke. I think the RL have changed the rules without telling anyone!
A spirited performance last night but again our attack misfired on too many occasions and Leeds overall undoubtedly deserved their win.
Leeds are now I think pretty much assured of top spot and with that should be a shoe in for the final.

How many times did passes end up on the deck behind players? The only bright lights in attack were George Williams, and the fact that Bowen had another decent game.

When it happens early doors as it did last night you just know that it will continue for the remainder of the match

All last night proved was that Leeds can win at home in front of a partisan crowd and a dodgy ref. We've beaten them on a neutral ground already and will do so again come October. I thought we competed well with everything stacked against us.

Your are right with that , also it was a pity about the weather , it's the same for both teams but impossible to have the full on battle I was expecting , hopefully October with a decent ref !!!!!

When is a knock on not a knock on when Sinfield does it.
