So they don't charge him they're wrong, and if they charge him they're wrong. Gee.

The only Wigan incident reported in the disciplinary summaries is the the Sean O’Loughlin late tackle on Sneyd in the 2nd minute.

I've been trying to get my head round that as well. It sounds like you can be sent off for accidental/unintentional contact with the head.

No, the RFL create situation where they are indefensible, and most RL fans are sick of it!

As I added just now to my above post

Richard Silverwood just agreed that they could have said "No charge on-field decision incorrect!" because by what they have said it was and at least that would have been an attempt to gain some respect back!!

... just looking again, the decision is "charge", and the outcome is "Sending off Sufficient".


Sounds like sending off is always a "charge".
Or, to put it another way, sending off has never ended up with "no charge, 'cos the ref got it wrong".

Didn't hear many saying that on the 26th August, despite many referres and ex players saying so.

Funny how we latch onto the disciplinary/what ex pros and refs and pundits have to say when it suits us.

The disciplinary doesn't charge Watts and it's the correct decision and proves that the red card was silly but when its a player playing for another team who gets the same it would be that they have no bottle (see the ridiciculous notion that he only wasn't banned so that they didn't have to ban Sean O'Loughlin...who has been banned before).

You can't possibly say that going down to 12 men cost you the game. It didn't against Cas. I've seen countless teams win with a player down.

.... if it's any consolation, I didn't think Clubb scored a try, it was a loose carry and he lost the ball.

In open play it would have been a knock on, and never mentioned again.

Neither did I, I bring it up as an example of how suddenly, all these ex-pros/refs/pundits saying Watts shouldn't have been sent off are correct but they weren't when they were all (including Lee Radford) saying it should have been given.

its all ifs and buts ,wigan should never have been in a position to score their last try at Wembley,should have been a drop out,instead of a 20m tap.you lost the main event .get over it.

They were wrong, simple.
