At tonight's game Huddersfield knocked on and the Ref let play go on a Huddersfield player got the ball ran to the try line to go over for a try and Thaler was already on the try line clapping as the player went over. Didn't know Refs could do that?

Nothing Thaler does suprises me



Hes our VR on Sunday I just hope we dont need him

Fantastic one-sided story.

give us the other side to it then

He dropped his shorts and bared his to Salford fans.

Well done

do you need a sit down now?

Thaler's refereeing was shocking, as was our performance on the field. A competent ref wouldn't have made much difference as to who the got the 2 points other than a slightly smaller margin of victory.

I agree the Ref was awful but the players were just as bad if not worse. We didn't look like we wanted it not at 1 bit. What about when wilshere let the ball bounce when no one was putting pressure on him and it looked like the easiest take ever

You were rubbish - Thaler didnt affect the result, he gave decisions against both teams but didnt cost you the game !
if we had woke up at any point in the game we would have crucified you.
it seemed to me and others around me that because of the Myler business the players didnt seem to wanna play tonight

I said we were rubbish. But you have 2 tries that were clearly not so the Result would of been affected. You was offside nearly every play of the ball in the first half and made a few forward passes. The weird thing is when we were getting penalties when you kick it up the field we were only kicking i about 5-10metres up the pitch. Once we only gained 4 meters by a kick what was that about

That's nothing new for Huddersfield though.

It means you had Chris Thorman taking your kicks.

The other side just for you RB

The "clapping" was Thaler signalling it had touched a Salford player followed by him clenching his fist and raising his arm and waving it above his head to signal back to one, just happened that Hudds scored off it.

Its not hard if you have any idea about refereeing signals, happens most weeks at games



Maybe the Salford fan could watch the 2 games on sky coming up this weekend, he'll probably see the Ref "clapping" at some stage

Do you know I have heard refrees say "really good try" after a flowing movement down the field.

How strange, because the crowd would have thought it wasn't a good try and shouldn't have been allowed because there was nothing wrong with it.

Amazing what happens in RL

He can't be as bad as Silverwood. we haven't won a game with him reffing for about a year, disgusting referee.

At least one of those tries by Cudjoe looked to be in touch from where i was BUT as the TJ and the IGJ were on the spot and they gave it , surely that was a try. Thaler may have awarded it but the other TJs said it was fine.

To be fair to Thaler again he did not police the offside very much for BOTH teams. We kept shouting at your lot for being offside.

Forward passes, you are absolutely correct Huddersfield pass the ball forward on every tackle whilst all Salford passes were at least 5 yards backwards.

He did police the markers standing square for both teams and how you criticise the refs first half when you got your tey after 3 consecutive penalties is beyond me.

Alternatively your team isn't good enough!

I mean who actually knocks on, drops the ball, kicks poorly, is offside, misses open tries, holds down, tries to knock someones block off?

I never realised it was the match officials and anyone of those in particular.

Todays new thing learned!

It must just be coincidence then.

I thought he was clapping cos they'd scored and signalling to his bookie that he was manual satisfier.

Or, you're .

you've noticed as well have you?

Lol are passing was awful. Thats the worse Ive ever seem Salford play most fans were saying it. If you were at your best you would of easily had us forabout 60+points

its an absolute bloody disgrace

yet another giants win is met by howls of complaints about the referee



one day, just one day we might actually beat a team because we were better than them, i have yet to see any set of fans not whinge about the ref after we've beaten them.

to be fair to salford the giants were fairly poor last night, had we been on form salford could have been looking at a 50-60 point thrashing.

oh well the giants' march towards old trafford continues while the opposition moans about the ref's

That will be the same day that Rovers beat a team that isn't understrength or going through a bad spell.

See you at OT!
