However if you continue to post in the manner of a pathetic child who is still very sore from last Monday's result then you will find you are no longer able to post on here any more.

| Quote Rogues Gallery="Rogues Gallery"No it wasn't touch in goal.
Meli chipped the ball forward and Whiting had both feet on the touchline about 10 metres from the Hull try line as he caught the ball. In that case the ball is out of play and it should have been head and feed to Hull. Whiting did not carry the ball into from the field of play into touch.
Roby scored direct from the resulting scrum in which the head and feed was wrongly given to Saints.'"
Clarified by Wilf's receptionist in the diary.

Because the ball had bounced allready it was a live ball,the ball is in the air and Whiting then catches it with his feet on the line,the head and feed to Saints was the correct call.The rule your talking about only counts if the ball hasnt bounced in the field of play allready.

I agree that he isnt a cheat,often in the past he has been rather harsh on Saints maybe in an effort to prove hhe is neutral.However the fact that he is from St.Helens has begun to distract from the game,if there was a neutral ref then ok there may still be some contrevertial calls but at least there would be no suggestion from anyone that there is a bias.
All in all it was an entertaining game,chances for you to put us to bed in the first half,chances for us and you to win in the second.I enjoy the Hull games as they are usually good hard games.I also enjoy the banter we have with the Hull fans and the shared sense of rugby community we have with regard to Steve Prescott and also Longy.
Best of luck for the rest of the season and hoping those 50/50 calls will start going your way

The RFL could quite easily stop the conspiracy theories y simply not letting Ganson referee Saints.
But then they're not exactly an intelligent bunch at times.

Steve Cross was a referee, well before they turned pro though.

IIRC the history behind this was that Ganson was the top rated ref at the time Saints were getting to all the finals and so he wasn't getting to ref the big games that his 'status' would normally have guaranteed. He complained about it (I seem to recall he might even have threatened to resign) and the RFL caved. Unlikely they'll go back on that decision now.
