Close game but the Griffin incident turned the tide. He was really stupid to get into the face of the ref like he did and once he got the yellow card it should of been a case of "yes sir,sorry sir" he could of gone into the changing room and yelled all he wanted to. But instead he's come out with some abusive language that you could clearly lipread and he gave the ref very little choice.

The Fash incident was something you can see in almost every game and to my mind it's a penalty at most and i'm a Saints fan.

Be interesting to see the transcript. I am sure the club have requested the audio from the referee mic

Common sense regarding Fash's tackle, no mention of Batchelors clear shoulder charge...

And how about Walmsleys knees on Trueman?

Just shows that they both talk absolute poop, I said at the time you only have to look at Fash to see both his arms are trapped in between his body and Percivals, even Percival had hold of Fash so how any of those eejits on the BBC couldn't see that just shows they lack any credence and ability to be impartial.

Think it’s a vicious cycle with refs. The more they face dissent and consequence, the harder recruitment and retention gets, and the standard drops even lower. We really are in a sorry state when Thaler is the best ref now.
