I don't agree. Our tactics allow our backs to play like they do. It's not off the cuff.

We lost, could and should of won as frustrating as it is move on to the next game and support the lads.

I can't just shrug that one off - it was bloody awful! Wherever a decision was to be made, we unerringly made the wrong one - and the inability to change tactics in the 2nd half when the weather fined up a bit was just baffling. It was almost as if someone had made a decision to freeze Johnstone out of the game on purpose - he was nothing more than a skinny prop for 90% of that game, which is just criminal.

Negative, amateurish and after a complete performance at Leeds last week, inexplicable.

I agree with everything you say it’s frustrating but what’s done is done hope they learn from it, the decision making was terrible.

Up the Trin

Agreed
How many repeat sets did we manage 2 ?
And as for "creating" anything, the less said the better, we were bloody awful.

Defensively we went well but with ball in hand it was as bad as it gets.

Just wondering why Chris Chester has looked time and again at the grounding for Johnstone's try frame by frame and says nothing was wrong.

Had it been a TV game and a video ref they wouldn't have got as far as the grounding. Johnstone's effort was disallowed for putting a foot on the touchline before launching himself and the touch judges flag immediately went up.

Result/performance aside for a second, Johnstone`s try was a perfectly good try, again 3 officials all within 1 to 2 metres of the ball on the ground, each with different angles and they cannot get it right? Picked up on it with the Catalans game finish, was given up as a no try so if there was no screen it would have been just disallowed straight away. Great piece of skill discounted all because of incompetent refereeing, also strange how not one of them spotted the clear knock on in the build up to the KR try?

Don`t think we deserved to win that game, thought we were poor and they looked the team more likely to score the whole game, but if the officials had got those calls right we probably would have come away with the 2 points.

What had the ball on the ground have to do with it if his foot had previously been in touch?

Not too sure if you realise this but if they are within 1 or 2 metres of the ball on the ground then they are also within a few metres of his foot also, close enough to realise that his foot had not gone into touch, would you agree?

Oh dear. Tom Johnstone had his foot on the white line before he jumped for the ball and you cannot jump from out of the field of play to catch a ball. It was a no try because Johnstone’s foot was in touch before even catching the ball, can’t explain it any clearer than that.

Hi Moxi, he did not mate.

I was at the game but In the worst position in the stadium to judge what had happened and i assumed that’s what had happened by what people are saying. Now just watched the Highlights and it looks a good bet that his left foot hit the touchline as he jumped with the ball.
