Myler is no more than ordinary at best, about level with Tony Smith at Catalans.
Our biggest threat on Friday is ourselves.
If we turn up and play as we can we will win.
Anything short, then forget it.

No its not. We've got Kendall as ref.....

Myler is terrible! Leeds must be regretting that signing

will probably come back to me that comment hopefully not Friday though

He was the club's player of the year in 2018. Not a vintage Leeds year it's true but without him there's every chance the club would have been relegated.

FFS, the guy is gash. Catalans weren't good enough to take advantage but Leeds at home will be a different matter.

We don't seem to be selling tickets for this game - have I missed a deadline, or is the website playing up?

Myler will probably have a blinder, he shouldn't be an issue if he's on normal form. His stand out feature is his missus.

We shouldn't be having to blame ref or look at Myler good or bad.
If we play like we can we are good enough to win the game.
Discipline will be important and the defense out wide equally so but we are good enough. Let's just get it done.

To be fair to Kendal, he doesn't show any particular bias but he is just blind.
The Tom Johnstone try last Thursday was just typical of the guy. Without the VR Tom would have been denied a good score when many with a worse view than Kendal could see the ball was a good foot in play on touchdown.
We just have to hope we are "lucky" with his lottery style of officiating. This is particularly important regarding his ball steal interpretations.
Prefer him any time to Child or Hicks or even Mickeymouseovich.

Just read that Rhinos coach David Furner has been and had a word with SL head of Ref's, Steve Ganson, on certain referees decisions in Rhinos opening games.
Looks like it's going to be an interesting game Friday night.

I do not agree at all.
Tom's try was not clear until it was shown on TV.
If you were close and you knew then fair enough but no of the commentators thought so first time view and most of the ground would have had no idea.
Even the players rushing in asked him if he thought he'd scored.

Kendal did the right thing to go to screen.

His mistake was blowing up too early for the Hampshire break but he blew for what he saw. Most of the time people complain refs don't take responsibility so you can't have it both ways.
I think he's fine. There are far worse.

So what is the point in touch judges and the in goal who are both stood within a metre of that try looking from different angles? Fair enough it was on TV so he had the luxury of a video referee there just to make sure but he handed it up as a no try? That indicates had it been a non TV game a perfectly good try would have been chalked off because 3 officials cannot come up with the correct decision between them.

This is exactly my point though. He gets it wrong on numerous occasions so we have to rely on the toss of a coin.

If the screen is available it should always be used but this refs call thing completely undermines its effectiveness at times.

There are far worse as I said.

well we all have our opinions but the Hampshire call was ridiculous.
