He hadn't given back to one for the played-at ball before Raleigh kicked, though, making that two times we ought to have had another 6 play-the-balls...and I agree, Smith's try was good, and 'that' kick was wide.

Watched it again today and there are 3 players (including Whiting) clearly offside at that play the ball. COuldn't be easier to spot either as they should have been behind the line and yet 2 players are stood directly in front of the 2 uprights - no possible way for them to be onside.

In summary - Mr Roby is a terrible referee.

I wasn't there, but were Hull smart enough to exploit this while we weren't? A lesson we need to learn, I think. Some teams seem to alter their game depending on which ref they've got, and our first instinct is to claim bias by the ref (I don't buy that) but maybe we're just not savvy enough to adapt our game?

N.B. I freely admit bad-mouthing refs on many an occasion, but see this as a duty
