| Quote BESTY="BESTY"Quote BESTY="simon_tem"Cummings is a perfect example of the inconsistency endemic in refereeing.
I seem to recall a match where a Hull prop (Taylor?) caught an opposition player round the head as he was bringing the ball out his is own 20, the player clearly slipped and it would have been impossible for the Hull play to adjust. Cummings went off on the 'tackling player has a duty of care to the opposition player.., any contact with the head, deliberate or otherwise..., etc., etc. and defended the referee for either sin binning or red carding the Hull player. Watch another match and Cummings excuses a player for what ended up a pretty atrocious tackle because he made first contact with the shoulder and then ended up round the head.
If the former Match Officials Director can't provide a consistent line sat in a commentary box under no pressure with the benefit of God knows how many replays then that shows what a problem we have.'"
He gave himself big time on Thursday,The 1st Leeds try were there a possibility the ball came off Watkins onto Briscoe was immediately dismissed by him despite there looking to be some contact,from then on in every comment he made portrayed negativity our way. He's by far the worse on sky. I can live with the others who usually seem to counter each other to give at least some balance. We're in among them and they don't like it
 '"
Think Cummings just shows what a closed shop the RFL have created in terms of the officials as they are unaccountable. Cummings even with the benefit of replays still backs the refs 99% of the time even when its clear they've made an incorrect/poor decision and then goes on to defend them. The refs are not perfect and being human will make mistakes but its the inconsistency in the officiating between not only each ref but the same ref in the same game. Then the inconsistency of the disciplinary panel and the grades and bans dished out.
Cummings for me was always an arrogant official and for me was not the right guy for the head of officials due to his arrogance and lack of admission when making mistakes, this has been compounded by the appointment of Ganson. The RFL need to address the standard of officiating and use some of the money to bring over a respected official from Australia. |

Can't see Tuli playing to be honest, lets face it the initial squads named mean nothing as he was named a few times along with Ellis when they were not even close to fitness. |

| We're due another flash of brilliance from Kelly for this match 
I'm hoping Watts will have a massive game too. He could play his way into the England squad on Friday night which is additional motivation for him |

Watts is as good if not better than most of the England props and in form.Unfortuneatley his face doesnt fit for this current coach.
The quicker we get Powell into this role the better. |

I know Turgut wasn't great against Hudds, but he should be ahead of Downs (who I'm not sure is big enough) |

I agree about Downs but Turgut has done little in the first team when selected and his last outing at Leeds he gave away too many penalties and missed tackles.
I think he will deservedly lose his place.I had great hopes for Turgut but it has been mentioned on here that he will probably end up as a Championship player. |

.... according to the leeds match stats, there are other players who would get dropped before Turgut.
4 missed more tackles than he did.

jury out on turgut, hasn't kicked on as I hoped, but still time, has all the tools to be a decent second rower, downs and fash imo just not big enough, I like fash as he always gives it all, but shame he isn't bigger as never bends the line,
