Good point. And since what it was actually offering was excrement, for sure we'd need some variant on the instructions for it to follow anyway...

It's the booing I love. No-one does it better, earlier, longer or louder than Wakey. Even when there are only 2,000 at Belle Vue.

| Purtell did very well to get that down. he has been excellent in both games, if he can keep it up it's a bit like we've gained a proper decent centre.

| Quote ="mystic eddie"Personally I could not give a stuff about the quality of the game last night. Given that the two sides are strongly tipped for the drop and it was a "roll your sleeves up and get stuck in" kinda night then what was anyone really expecting?
The twopoints were all that mattered and they were vital. I am pretty sure that Wire would take an ugly win tonight, or Wigan tomorrow for that matter.
It was a crap night, in a crap town, on a crap pitch, in a crap stadium, in front of a crap crowd and yet some people seem to expect State of Origin quality?
Don't be so silly.
Welldone lads. Great effort, comfortable win and a good starting ground with a very winnable game next up. We got the points, and now have a good break before the next game, which may allow us to make those short term deals a bit longer.
Blythe and Ferguson still to come back too.
Looking a bit brighter.'"
Own up someone! Whose hijacked ME's account? I suspect TT as it looks like his style but toned down!

| It makes a change for us to get one of those 'Benefit of the Doubt' tries. To be fair you couldn't tell whether Purtell got it down or not as the ball was obscured, so if 'BOD' goes to the attack, which seems to be the modus operandi these days, then it was a fair decision.
Wakey were unfortunate in theirs as the video clearly picked out they weren't scored, so no 'BOD'. Just glad it went our way for once.
There were lots of good performances for us, particularly in defence and the extra weight on show really made the difference from last week. The spirit in the side was enormous. Proud to be a Bull.

I almost entirely agree, except that as Cummings (who is hardly our best mate) pointed out on the Sky recording, the very first camera shot, from almost head on, did seem to show the curve of the ball down on the line clearly enough. And after that there was no other shot to negate that so I can't see how it could have been NOT given - experts though we are at reasons not to award being improbably found.

| You deserved to win whether it was a try or not, neither side was great but Wakey were terrible.

How can that be unfortunate? If the video clearly picks out that the ball was not down, then its correct, not unfortunate?

It was not given as BOD though. It was given as a try.

| Great win last night. Stand outs for me were Purtell, who is really looking a handfull at Centre this season, Diskin, MOM IMO, took control of the game and Gale, showed some nice touches and looked busy.
Mullally gave us some real go forward off the bench, something which we lacked against Cas.

| Lets hope Gaskell isn't too serious, but credit to Addy he came on and did a decent job last night. I agree with a previous comment about Addy being a useful utility player to bring off the bench rather than a starting second rower/loose.

| It was crutial that we had a bench player able to play in the backs, Addy filled in well going up a notch in my estimation.
It has to be remembered that we had only 2 rotation forwards then instead of 3 so the lads had longer stints to do.
Even Diskin was pressed into a forward role at the end of the match.

| I like the 2014 Diskin. Looks meaner and a bit leaner. Has done very well since he heard RAB was sponsoring him so I think we take all the credit.

Yeah, that's right it was, which I guess backs up what FA said about Cummings saying you could see the ball on the ground.
To be honest, I don't recollect seeing the BOD on the board for ages - I know the advantage to the attack policy still applies, but have they decided not to put it up on the screen any more?

When I put the telly about 5 minutes before KO they were showing an interview with him. He spoke far more eloquently than I expected.

Does the ball actually have to touch the ground though? I have a vague recollection that if your own arm or hand is under the ball it still counts?

Must admit, I have a vague recollection of the same thing. But not sure where I've got it from.
