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.

Spot on there with that earth shattering statement, what they should do for us though is be consistant, the only consistency this bloke shows towards us is to constantly penalise us for anything and everything whereas at the same time let the opposition get away with it. A good example of it was yesterday although you people sat at home would not have seen it, but from the back of the sticks where the Wakey FANS were we could see that the markers were never square here is your starter for 10 how many times were they penalised for it 0 thats a zero, on the other hand were we not sqaure at the play the ball, course we werent but did we get penalised? answers on a postcard please. Leeds won because over the 80 mins they were the better team they scored 6tries to our 5, well done Leeds, we were punished for our indiscretions were Leeds. All you ask for is consistency did we get it yesterday with this thing, or if you like do we ever get it from him no never, the sooner that thing is dumped back over the channel or preferably in it the better off we shall be, there are better refs in the championship.

we lost so lets blame the ref syndrome will kick in, but then we did see some reasons for complaint no doubt Leeds would of done if they had lost,

I'm still under the impression that Childs is fast becoming our best ref in the game, not because we have won under him, more than he has the balls to stand up teams that want to get away with spoiling tactics

its so easy to want a player sin binned to gain an advantage for our selves, that when we feel we have been let down by the professional foul and he has sent him to the bin, we blame the ref,

I enjoyed that game so much I think I'll go again
