GAME ON : Leeds Rhinos v Wakefield Trinity - 19:45:00

GENERAL CHAT ABOUT THE GAME, BUILD UP, THE ACTION AS IT HAPPENS AND AFTERMATH BELOW.

looking at the Leeds bench I can't see beyond a comfortable away win

Poor call from Hicks to give offside.

My main thoughts on this are that I never for a minute thought Sky would choose to show Leeds v Wakefield over Saints v Hull! Bizarre choice to show a bottom of the table rather than top of the table match.

There's more excitement at the bottom.

Worst rule in the sport that.

That’s as fair a tackle as any and is exactly what players running with the ball do every carry, but a shoulder charge is classed as foul play.

Ridiculous.

The game’s gone backwards since that rule came in

I don't care for using the shoulder charge and I think a blind side SC should remain banned as it's too dangerous IMHO. A late SC but nothing horrendous get automatic yellow, man on man though I think it's reasonable. However if you furk it up and make contact with head automatic sending off and 3 match ban, no ifs no buts. It should make players think long and hard about using it and not be reckless.

which idiot picks the 4 my league players???

mylers been magnificent

never a try. never in a million years

Why do sky have that fool Cummings on commentary. He can't even get a decision right when he's seen it ten times,

A total embarrassment.

Not saying it was a try but it wasn’t clear cut not

obvious knock on for me sorry

And Wakey fans think they always get robbed by the ref. That last ‘try’ was a joke.

Bit like Hall dropping the ball which led to the penalty two pointer. Never a ball strip.

so obvious I don't remember it!
no problem with a ref making an error in real time but video refs should never get it wrong. I feel cheated

No point arguing with Wakey fans. Despite the contrary Leeds fans will admit when they get a lucky call, Wakey fans are always the victim.

From a Neutral perspective it was a try.

I'd be fascinated to hear you defend that statement. What about that makes you think it's a try?

Clear gap between arm and ball, hicks just guessed a decision and the stupid ing ref call is putting fans off going to games. Crap decision clear knock on.

Leeds fans complaining about the ref when their captain was one for 10 years

Go on then, admit you got 8 points off lucky calls. Ferres trapped lynes arm for the penalty for your third try then moon obstructed him when handley scored. Tj said he thought it should be checked but hicks awarded it.

Hall ball steal was a stone cold dropped ball and gave you the 2 points to stretch your lead.

As much as you whine about woods try, on field call was a try and there wasn’t sufficient evidence to over turn it despite Thaler taking an age to look at all the angles.. The way you lot are going on about it, you would think he had slam dunked it down

idiot. leave the discussions to grown ups

No it wasn’t

In real time I thought try, on the first replay I thought no try, then on the second replay I thought try. The last freeze also suggested try.

As I keep reading on the VT, it's swings and roundabouts over the course of the season. Two weeks ago when Wakefield went to St Helens, there were two decisions which should have gone to the video ref which could have seen a different outcome.

Is it only me that doesn’t seem to see what others do in Jack Walker?
I’m not saying he’s not a promising young player, but tonight I thought he was average at best. Yet he was still voted as Man of the Match.
