one word, wrong, alibert had one of his better games(though not great) and did not cost us the game. Our fragile defense on the right flank cost us

You know the rules then?



If you did then you'd know it was your players that was not back onside, irrelevant where leeds players were

Just watched them again I can see why they were given by the word of law but weren't attempts to hold down,bit of tiredness and getting tangled which they usually account for.Albiert was just being too finicky with some of the penalties,at the end of the day you just want him to be consistent through out the match

100% correct.

Im off for a lay down now

That's how I saw it. McGuire was holding onto BJ, but it is hard for the ref when he was probably trying to get into position himself.

McGuire should have had 10 for holding BJs legs. A couple of the holding downs were con jobs by Leeds, especially when Peacock appeared to turtle himself, you could clearly see Ferguson made no attempt to turn Peacock. Other than that, I though old Terry Albert did ok. He certainly didn't lose us the game.

Uptoncat is spot on about the two 20m restarts. There are lots of fans that don't seem to understand the laws in respect of this. He pulled you guys back because you had players in an off-side position. The ref can no longer allow a quick restart unless all the attacking players are back behind the 20m line. He pulled you back because they were not all back, simple as. However, the Leeds players were back for theirs and he therefore allowed the tap to be taken. Sorry guys, you were not hard done to there I am afraid!

However, McGuire was very lucky and it should have been a penalty (not sure about a binning though) but also Bibb's knock on was missed, so these things tend to even themselves up over the course of the game.

I agree. Can't blame the ref for the defeat. He had a pretty good game, I thought.

Poor reffing did not help us but we should have had it won we did the hard work then made basic errors very annoying.

Get over it

the ref dont tackle for us

obviously

Agree McGuire should have been penalised for holding down no doubt but you must admit Korki was correctly penalised for laying on as well?

Read the thread, we openly admit korki's 2 pens were right.
