Unlucky guys thought you deserved it. Thought shaul should of being pulled up for knock on instead of them getting penalty and try. And all sky guys including Stuart Cummings said it should of being awarded he played Finn on side

What is annoying is he sent it up as a no try because he thought Hall had knocked on not for offside

Robbed, end of. Two silly women in front had the cheek to say they were missing Minachello

talk about clutching at straws

History now.
I can only say that had the team played some of our previous games with the enthusiasm they displayed tonight we would be in the top 6.
Pleasant surprise because I thought we were in for a hiding. As it is we were very unlucky to lose.

Just shows how they've tinkered with the rules over the years & not kept folk updated as I was adamant that the kicker played everyone onside. As said previously Finn wasn't even involved in the play. Hey ho!!

Hull were poor tonight.....

Could have been worse could have watched it in West hull then straight after game old trouts put on kings of Leon sex on fire and change lyrics to snide is on fire rounded off by old faithful.Sums up their season

Now I think about it, wasn’t Hall first to the ball and patted it back? This means Finn is played onside whatever Surely?

Afraid not. As Finn was (just) in front of the kicker he has to stay at least 10 metres away from the opposition player challenging for the ball (i.e where the ball drops) whether Hall runs through and touches it first or not and whether he affecrs they play or not. If he'd have been half a metre further back when it was kicked or a couple of metres to the right he'd have been ok even though nothing would have changed either way. Stupid rule but its there.

Well im confused,the only offside ruling i can find is taken from the RFL website.

www.rugby-league.com/the_rfl/rules/laws_of_the_game/offside

Placed onside 3. An off side player is placed onside if:

(d) one of his own team kicks or knocks the ball forward and takes up a position in front of him in the field of play.

If Campbell had indicated a try before sending it up would Bentham have disallowed it? We'll never know but I have my suspicions that answer would be no.

You're so bitter Craig.



But anyway, it was offside, whether anyone agrees with the rule or not.

Hull had one disallowed earlier this season for exactly the same offence, where Tuimavave didn't give the player catching the kick 10 yards, the player spilt it, Sneyd (I think) picked it up and scored, but disallowed despite Tuimavave not really being involved.

To the guy who says 'folk should be kept updated on rule changes', we are. Full rules are available on the rugbyleague site, and any changes for the forthcoming season are announced each year (and discussed on RLFans usually). What else do you want, Nigel Wood to come to your house personally to sit down and explain them to you?
