On topic just seen Halibut in the London/Cats game. Another 7 tackles allowed that led to a try.

Cummings needs to have a word with himself about his team and his management of them

That really is shocking.

Childs had an influence on the match that is for certain. Would we have won without him? I doubt it.The boys battled hard but ultimately didnt have the strength or fitness to break a well drilled Giants defence. Any side that has Whiting at prop for as long as we had will strugglr against the Giants.
From whats been raised here as i recall Kirk's injury came when he had the ball and was clearly hit high. i saw from 40 yrds away in my seat Childs saw nothing. Ticks was an accident as he was tackling.
The decision to award penalty for obstruction was correct. Once they regather the ball you cant wait to see if they will knock on etc.
As for offside at scrums etc he was simply inept.
Well played Giants your attack was poor and your purple patch wont last. You will choke as usual.

don`t understand this guy childs.his very first game as a ref in sl.he was good.infact quite a posters said the same about him.but what has happened?cummins must have had him in his office and told him he`s doing it all wrong,and if he doesn`t change and forget about the rules,he will be back down in the lower leagues.

He was bad both ways, FWIW.

I'm guessing he missed Crabtree running at Houghton for most of the match as well.

We were always going to be up against it in this match but that clown in the middle made it even more difficult.

This might explain his no show at Salford yesterday. We got Roby in as a late sub, and he can at least count to six.

I have sympathy for anyone watching a game where Childs is ref, by some distance, he's the worst official at the moment.

In his defence he can count to 6 unlike some officials. This bunch are without doubt the worst set of officials in RL history imo. not a single decent one amongst them.

With their boss as the common denominator...

And full time paid up to boot. Well done Stuart.

Exactly and he wasn't free from controvesy himself during his career as a ref. The standard is very poor and something the RFL really need to pay serious attention too. I hate to say it but oh for the days when we had Russel Smith and even Ashley Klown.

Childs was bad yesterday (only ever seen 1 decent performance from him!) but you can't blame the outcome of the game on his decisions or indecision!

I got home and watched the Sky game and Ganson was in a league of his own! Stuart Cummings needs to get the refs sorted out because they're getting worse!

James Childs - Can't get a grip in the game and makes far too many incorrect decisions. Classic example of a ref who makes a wrong decison, realises it then gives the team a penalty later on!

Steve Ganson - Makes the rules up as he goes along! Ruins the game when he decides he's going to concentrate on one part of the game (i.e laying on) and penalise normally continously

Theirry Alibert - Can't count!

Each super league game would probably turn out very differently depending on who is in the middle. I think this is just wrong.

TBF I dont think anyone has blamed him for the loss as it was inevitable that playing Rovers then the current league leaders who were able to rest players on Friday we would most likely be running on empty in the last 1/4 of the game.

You lost, get over it. Hope it's another good game next week.
By the way, think posts like yours are far more pathetic than our support,but what the **** has that got to do with you, you're sour grapes attitude is what i expect from your Red and White brothers across the city and not from Hull fans who are generally a good bunch judging by the lads I've met.

No paint, urine and EDL flags when you've met them then?
