Quote smudgersmith="smudgersmith"We had Thaler for the semi against Wigan, talking to a couple of Wigan fans after the game they agreed that he had given them every opportunity to win that game so again poor display from the man in the middle.
As a previous poster has said the ref has been discussed on numerous occasions this year win, lose or.... ok we haven't drawn this year
Out of interest do you disagree with any of the comments about the refs performance? Or for example do you feel that it wasn't a professional foul on Taylor?'"
TBH - I think Thaler's performances have dipped recently which is concerning because he was my preferred ref before. He seemed to be able to control a game very well,but his approach recently has changed quite a bit. I agree consistency is a real problem atm with the decisions the refs are making. I do agree with DGM regarding him being a parody of Ganson. I personally think Ganson's appointment was a poor decision and until they get rid of him nothing will change. I would just like to make a point about the officiating between Leeds & Leigh, it was a pretty poor performance by the ref, but equally it was a poor performance by Leigh. My point being is, it is what it is and there is no point dwelling on it and we must move on. BTW, yes it was a foul on Taylor,but like iv'e already said, consistency is a big problem atm.Sometimes it goes for you and sometime it don't. HTH.
