Nope, nearest thing i can find to contest it with was the number plate. The E looked like a G

Alot of people were slating him pre match but i thought he stood up to the test well. Granted he hasn't had big game experience, but i thought he coped well with the situation and certainly wasn't intimidated by the atmosphere. Hopefully the experience will stand him in good sted for the future.

How different this tread would be if we had lost!

Regardless of the rights and wrongs of his decisions, what I thought would happen, he would lose control of the match, didn't. He made a few baffling decisions but overall did OK. I’m sure the Leeds fans unused to seeing their team so heavily punished we see it differently but hey that’s how things pan out. Trinity have been on the receiving end a great many times.

Quite! The weekly 'slagging the ref off before we play' thread is embarassing. Refs make mistakes the same as players, coaches and everyone else - some just find it more convenient to blame the man in the middle everytime!

i thought he wouldnt have been able to cope with the whinging rhinos sinfield peacock jones buchanan mc guire burrows webb they r constantly moaning to referees bout time they got strong this is rugby league not football.

Leeds lost because of the Ref,

he did'nt have his memo from the league telling him how you should listen to what Sinfield and Diskin are telling him, so he just reffereed it proper

well done mr Child

On the whole, the ref had a decent game however, Id like to drawn upon an incident where brent webb said something out of turn to the touch judge in the second half on the east stand side which was sufficient for the the referee to award a penalty with no further action.

Last season in more or less the exact same place, danny brough said something out of turn to a touch judge and mr child saw fit to send brough off.

what a contrast...It warranted a red card for a wakefield player but only a penalty for a leeds player. regardless of what was said by both players, abuse of match officals is clearly not tollerated so c'mon Mr cummins, lets have some consistency!

there could have been a vast difference in the severity of the dissent from the Leeds player as opposed to what Brough did, of which you certainly won't be party to, we won't know what sort of dissent it was would we?

From memory Brough was certain to get sent off that day and was probably on his second warning for dissent at the time.

not necessarily, I like to think I'm pretty fair when assessing the referee's performances whether we win or lose.

For example, Mr Bentham got an absolute slating from me after his performance in the Catalan game even though we won, I've also praised the performance of referee's when we've lost.

It was indeed kevin sinfields least effective refereeing performance for quite sometime!! He may be demoted to reffing in lower league games after such a sub standard effort!!!!!

it was very good and did not take a backward step like most referees when moaning Sinfield comes over.
