just watched the highlights on kr tv, and never noticed at the game how bad the decision to award the sharks first try was ,scored by the smurf , shocking decision , quinlan hits paeas arm trying to stop him grounding the ball and flies out loose carry or what. even paea shakes his head , and the obstruction was as bad as the sharks suffered at leeds ,shocking descisions continue in this and every game , the what goes round comes round bit wears thin when it costs teams points replies to -- sourgrapes.co.uk

You'll feel better after a good night's sleep.

You scored a try from a play the ball that was knocked on,and then the final pass been a mile forward. Minns was literally stood in front of Carney when he passed it.

Bugger,didn`t know we were a one man team.

To win with just 12 players shows that it was the best performance by any away side at your place this season.

6 successive derby defeats, losing after being 20 points up and now still getting beat despite having 73 minutes against 12 men. FC certainly have you in their pocket.

you do now

We will see,will be interesting to see how long Watts manages to stay on the field. Don`t get me wrong,great player, but too much of a loose cannon. Only time will tell if you are right.

like shauls pass to the dustman you mean. just thought id mention it on one post ,didn't mean it turning into a ten page thread like other teams do

Just watched it. Talanoa receives a blatant forward pass..ref gives it, Peae loses it, Houghton follows the drop..VR gives it, Quinlan scores..VR disallows it due to "apparant"obstruction that really never was, Shaw touches down..ref disallows it for a forward pass..funny how Talanoas wasn't forward...No wonder we get p****d off!
I am biased, I admit it, but watch it yourself and decide!
All we ask is a fair go.

The obstruction rule is just rubbish. For what it's worth, I would have given Quinlan's try. He runs through a different hole to where Lane was defending.
BUT, it's not the video ref, it's the rule that is the problem. At the time Quinlan receives the ball, Blair makes contact with Lane, and this happens directly in the path between Lane and Quinlan. By the rules of the game, this is obstruction.
I do think it was a harsh decision but by the rules of the game it was the correct one. The obstruction rule is just rubbish (As we found out against Leeds a few weeks ago but I bet no Rovers fans complained about that).

Not watched it back yet but thought 2 or 3 of there tries were dubious and couldn't see much wrong with our 2 disallowed scores?But in reality if you can't beat 12 it's irrelevant. I didn't want to see Blair in the half's but it looks the right call now? Marsh can cover half FB and at a push centre but excels in none of those.Lee was shocking.Salters misses on Tumorvave were the pivotal moments.How did they find space out wide with a man down? And we couldn't convert an overlap if Dot Cotton was defending.So much wrong today and could so easily have been different.Will be interesting how Sheens responds to that sack of bilge?

no they never, but it dosent make it right needs some looking at as it costs teams points as you found out happening to regularly to various teams
