Forward pass, covered up by the BBC who are in bed with the RFL, hard look Widnes, it looks like the orders have gone out, was really wanting to see you lot in the final, i will be very shocked if you are allowed to win today

*Luck^^^

It's a conspiracy!

I'll give you the BOD, and say you've had a few bevys this afternoon?

Seriously????

BBC in bed with the RFL to what effect???

The Beeb are hardly going to take over the world with a Cas v Leeds Final.

I think you have had too many baked beans, utter garbage.

Definately a forward pass although my mate did not agree till he saw the HT replay of the first half highlights.

it was like wasn't it, and as soon as the try was scored they only showed it from different angles and not the view from the main camera that showed it as being forward, deffo the rfl pulling the strings so they can an all yorkshire final

It was deffo forward and there were a few other mistakes not picked up that on balance probably wouldn't have saved Widnes but would have kept the nuetral happier..
..dixon catching from in field and landing behind the try line not given as a dropout, HUBY & about 2 other Cas forwards infringing the 10metres (AFTER Bentham had told them to keep the 10) which meant that the Widnes winger looked up at them and missed the ball Cas then scored sstraight on the next possesion (similar was given as a penalty when Australia scored against us when Tomkins dropped it in the 4 nations)
Cas were easy winners without them though

I wonder if you could do a similar appraisal for the widnes infringements that weren't given. Silverwood didn't favour either team and tried to let the game flow.

OK on the replay the pass to Dorn did look a touch forward, but if you'd checked the Dixon incident, he did catch the ball when running from the field of play, but he ran back into the field of play and was well over the line when he passed to Luke Dorn who was bursting through and may well have run the length of the field, at the Cas end where we were well placed to see, we were bemused by the decision and the ref got it wrong, but we felt Cas had been wronged and not Widnes. On the day, we felt the ref gave good and bad decisions both ways, so probably evened itself out in the end.

I was only highlighting the favourable decisions to Cas, that's why I said on balance they wouldn't have effected the result as CAS WERE EASY WINNERS..jeez you need to start reading & understanding what people write..BTW I'm a Hull fan and have a soft spot for Cas anyways..
Oh and the pass to Dorn was a lot more than a smidge forward, it was a good metre forward..just so you know..

Watched it again last night and that pass was definitely well forward and the one to Finn could have been given too. What's really annoying is that Silverwood was right there when Clark made the first pass and still didn't give it. That being said, Cas were by far the better team and well deserved their win. Good luck to them at Wembley, I hope they win it - and I think they will.

If you're measuring forward passes in length you aren't understanding the rule. It doesn't matter at all whether the ball travels forwards in relation to the ground (most passes do assuming players are moving when they pass)

It's about direction and therefore was about 17˚ forward relative to a perpendicular line between the player and the touch line. More or less anyhow. From my viewpoint. On the telly......
