So what do people think?

No brainer IMO. Had a good game last week.

Perfectly fine by me,he aint great but compared to silverwood he aint that bad .

For some reason I always worry when Hicks or Thaler are involved when we play, so don't expect many 50/50s going our way, especially if one is a video ref decision.

At least Child's not going to be involved unless someone breaks a leg
Could be worse

More concerned with the weather rather than who the ref is. So far it's looking like a pretty miserable day.

Do the RFL not realise the last train back to Wigan is half ten ?

After last weeks performances there was only really one choice.

Bit of a farce really considering Silverwood had been told he had it only for it to be taken from him after his performance on Thursday. Why not wait until after both semi's before deciding?

For what its worth I thought Bentham also had a shocker but then what's new?

How did Bentham have a shocker? He got 98% of calls correct.

Silverwood tonight on @asktheref admitted that Manu's try shouldn't have been allowed.
Fair play to him for admitting he was wrong.

Is that a fact?

Sums up the state of refs when there is not 3 refs deemed good enough for 2 semis and the final and one of the two chosen had a nightmare game, for me Bentham did ok the head the ball try was allowed by the video ref I know you can head it but for me he was in front of the passer and obstructing the defender Blake Green I think but we got there in the end

The decision was right but the problem is with the rule. Any contact with any part of the body knocking the ball forward other than a kick should be a knock on IMO. Otherwise you could have situations where mis timed dummy runs are rewarded. The problem on Friday night, and the reason he was booed off at half time, was he knew the rule but the majority of the fans did not.

Yeah
