Not really, I think he's probably the worst ref in the comp. But, he had a reasonable game tonight IMO.

Quite right. We were dire tonight and completely bereft of any organisation.

5 drives one out and a kick downtown.

When we did contrive to move it wide the handling was abysmal.

Well done the Bulls ground out a win tonight against poor opposition.

exactly. some people can't accept we are poor and got beaten. They find anything and blame it on the outcome of the match no matter how stupid or insignificant. All descions made by the video referee were fair and if anyone bothered to read the rules they would no this!

yea we have played and need to start playing better but the officials are getting worse

It*s the first time i have heard of that law about a player not retreating,,but Phil Clarke seemed to know straight away and i think i heard Eddie Hemmings even qoute Law #9 (?) or something like that in the RFL book..

Even if you believe decisions went against (which is debatable) we should have been good enough to beat them.The Leeds fans are becoming like the Wigan fans of the eighties when they expected to win every game and could not take losing.
.

Well there you go, if the 3 wise monkeys say something then it must stand, as they get everthing right don't they?

Match referee and video referee had a fine game. Leeds were very lucky to have their try stand.

Just as last year, Sky start to make comment about who can stop us and we get stiffed by the officials and lose enough games to put their beloved Saints on top.
Tonight with ten mins to go and four points in it, Hemmings goes on about Sheriffe's try winning it for Bradford. With so much time left and a small margin how did he know that!!?? Because it suited Sky to have us lose and no way would we be allowed to win that's how!

It stinks and Cummins is party to it and I'm sick of it!! We get shafted all the time and we need to do something about it. I can just about take losing but I cannot take being cheated to make the league more interesting

Sky own the refs, FACT!

Burrow.

Maybe, maybe not. But one thing for sure when a team wins back to back titles, surprisingly enough expectations become slightly high!

I agree the whole world is against us winning any game!

LMAO!

I like a bit of paranoia and a good conspiracy theory but

They're making it more interesting by making Saints finish top for 5 years on the bounce.

Post of the Millennia!

Well the JJB try may have been forward. But we had one at the back end of the first half which was harsh.

the worst decision was to award bradford second try. JJB was delibertately taken out and regardless of whtehr he would or wouldnt have got to the kicker it was a penalty what hapens after that is irrelevant. Are we allowed to start playing blockers now?

and thats got you what?

one title?

happy to finish second and win it.
thing is i'm not sure we will come second this season!

There*s always Ray French,,Johnothan Davies,,What a choice we have got !!!!!,,,And not forgetting Clair Balding..

Because [ithat[/i was the point being made!

Indeed. Also Eddie and Phil may be able to spout rule 9 of the RFL handbook regarding the Webb offside incident but what about Stevo's momentum rule regarding the Watkins/Sinfield "knock on"..Stevo was spot on. A shocking decision. That said Leeds were still crap.

I applaud you. THAT is genius.

Lay off the skunk, it's causing Paranoia.

Leeds were flat tired and unimaginative. they still did enough to win that game though. the third disallowed try was a joke. Smith wasclutching at straws and then alibert rips up the rule book and judges a forward pass on the video. Add the foul on JJb in the build up to the 'winning' try and thats a 10 point turnaround. Shocking.

Bradford had years of dominance on the back of one friendly ref called smith and now they are getting a leg up (albeit the sympathy vote) from another prick called smith disably assisted by that french prick
