Chelsea with diving like that

Tard.

The last Wakey try after Ganson had gone to the Video ref and asked hime to look at the ball in the air, any interference and the grounding he said a few seconds later "can you also look at the play the ball." However Silverwood never looked at that at all before awarding the try. Sky didn't pick upon this, however Stevo did say that it was a clear knock on at the play the ball, but nobdy seemed to mention the fact that the video referee missed one of the things ganson asked him to look at.

Oh, we mentioned it all right. Loudly and using some fantastically industrial language.

I can imagine,were there veins popping?????

Same here. And went down to scream it at Ganson whilst Silverwood was purely looking at the collision with side show Bob and Hall.

Also can someone explain why, when Snitch committed the professional foul of stopping the quick tap from the 20, the player got correctly sinbinned but we got no penalty for it?

ganson's performance aside the codhead has a point. Leed's discipline has been very poor for some weeks now and there's no pont whinging at the referee as the cause of this.

It's inexcusable that the players are not improving their discipline - if there were a conspiracy to penalise Leeds it would be even more of a reason to tighten up in that department and learn from our mistakes.

Eventually this problem will cost us games if it isn't remedied.

Nothing wrong with the play the ball (making Silverwood's non viewing of it fairly irrelevant) but a clear knock on by Peterson's left hand before Atkins touched down. I just assumed Silverwood hit the wrong button it was that clearcut.

What? It was a clearly lost control of tvoc. He lost the ball onto the top of his foot, and brought his hand back down to regain control. Had that gone to the video it would have been pulled for losing control.

I must admit i thought it was a knock on but the call from the video ref was totally ridiculous.

But the knock on from side show bob was harder to judge. He should have simply looked at the play the ball, and we would have had a scrum within 30 seconds, rather than the ridiculous wait to try and prove a try for what he came up with.

Did the ball touch the floor?

I didn't think it did hence my view that it wasn't a knock on at the play the ball.



Clearly touched by Peterson's left hand, the ball rotation alters and it is propelled forward.

Indeed, it is visable from two of the angles shown ....

Incidentially, I thought the rules stated that the ball does not have to touch the floor for it to be a knock on, merely propelled forward (even in mid-air) ?

Well, it has to touch [isomething[/i, be it the floor or another player.

A player can knock it into the air and regather it themselves.

Sorry to patronise you Admiral.

('Patronise' means to talk down to you. Do you see?)

Don't know about the rules, sorry.

If a player fumbles or juggles the ball and regains possession without it touching the ground or an opposition player that wouldn't be a knock on in my view.

In the case of Silverwood not looking at the play the ball when Ganson asked him too, is there not a case of doing what they do in Rugby Union and having verbal communications between ref and video ref (but only when the ref on the pitch asks the video ref for assitance) and not for the video ref to be allowed to be impart unasked for advice.

No not at all, the best team won no complaints there, we did have some harsh decisions go against us however they tend to even themselves out

But some of you leeds fans make me p1ss with your arrogance, i can honestly say iv'e never seen a team get as many calls as you do at home when the south stand gets on the ref back, yet the 1st time you get anything going against you your bleating how hard done to you are

Think you need to stop having 10 refs on the field 1st and concentrate on your own discipline

It was a retort towards a trolls remark TBH and not a comment aimed at Hull fans in general.

I know our discipline is atrocious and get penalised twice for decent from the same player is more than inexcusable.

This WILL cost us points unless we put a lid on things and I believe that this has something to do with the attitude that our players enter the field with.

Tony Smith would drop indisciplined players – Bluey wont. He really needs to get a grip otherwise the only league we’ll top will be the Frontline fair-play league.

Unfair play league perhaps.

I'm pretty sure Silverwood wasn't asked to look at the PTB.

For my money it was a knock on by Petersen but I was happy with the PTB for the reason TVOC stated - the ball seemed to be on his foot.

Actually, I went to Oxford (note the correct use of a capital letter) & am therefore , in your terms able to enter into an intelectual (sic) debate, or do you mean an intellectual debate?
Your grammatical failings render any argument superfluous, so just go back to your own board like a good boy.

Was at Wembley to see Kieron O'Loughlin (I think) score a great try in '84 (again I think). Juggled the ball forward then dived and caught it over the line before it hit the ground. You can't deliberately throw the ball forward over someone (I tried that once when I was a kid and got pinged), I know that.

I knew it was in the rules somewhere, just couldn't remember the exact interpretation of it ...

wake up...Every home crowd tries to influence the ref even your lot.
