Wow, could a ref bottle it in any bigger an occasion. Shocking reffing has cost Saints the game. The inconsistency between decisions has been awful. A penalty for leeds is not a penalty for Saints??

The holding down has been downright terrible, and the "late Hits" also known as tackles. The mouthing off by beard face is an instant sin binning i thought?

I think he just wanted to show off that rugby league has the facility to use video refs

It was a poor performance.

Leeds played the better rugby, but Saints effort was much better. Unlucky for Saints.

Poor performance from Mr Bentham...A shoe-in for the Grand final then.

Reckon he's got a few on Leeds to win the cup?

Bentham the random penalty generator

As Mick Gledhill would say - =#FF0000BENTham

Did just what HQ told him to do Wire v Leeds final is the biggest gate, well done BENTERS owd chap.
Folk seem to think RL aint BENT, refs control who wins in todays game just accept it.

I think Saints' mistakes might have contributed a bit.

Bentham is from Warrington.

Warrington have a very good chance of getting to the CCup cup final

One of their potential opponents was St.Helens, a team that Warrington has not defeated in over 40 games.

Need I go on.

PS: im not blaming the ref for the result, however it does make a good conspiracy theory

Wrong. He's from Leigh and supports Leigh, infact he probabaly hates Warrington.

That's why Wigan don't win their games then when he refs them.

After every Leeds victory this season the opposition fans have blamed the result on a hidden agenda by the referee. Can't anyone just admit, us, the back to back to back champions, can actually sometimes out preform the opposition?

He's always been from Warrington as long as I can remember though. I've never, ever heard him mentioned with Leigh.

He's always been listed as being from Warrington as a 1st grade official that I've been aware of.

Is it something to do with the referee's association he graded with?



It wasn't last week at the Halliwell Jones so why should it be this week?

I agree it probably should be, especially if repeated in the same game.

all u want is for a ref to be consistent, something we did not get yesterday from bentham.

well tough , cos he's a leyther, he just doesn't want to live there, he thinks warrington is nicer, his own words.

Lives in Lowton, just and is seen everyday up pennington. His dad is the treasurer of Leigh ISA.
