Nothing wrong with the ref today at Saints he had a decent game
if you want to call refs look no further than......................
LAUGHTON....CHILDES

Well it does not look forward on the replay, nobody in the BBC studio thought it was forward, and many English fans thinks the ref handed too many decisions to the Saints www.totalrl.com/index.php?showtopic=175705 They certainly do not need it. For me the ref killed the small chance of competition there was in this match.

More important than that was Meli caught the high ball more than once in 80 mins and it stayed in his hands........amazing

Good call on the Cats player batting the ball back into play after the short kick off though, my immediate reaction was "WHAAAAAAT???" but a moments thought and I'm convinced he was right.
Cats were robbed on at least one of the two occasions where both players had a call, but I'd agree about the forward pass in the run up to the disallowed try, I shouted it as soon as it happened. IIRC there was another earlier in the move that was missed too.

Saints were always going to win that, but Thaler didn't help.

Thaler is probably the best ref we have in RL at the min and yeah he did make a couple of mistakes but compared to NL refs he's light years ahead. Wait till Childs is in SL then you'll see some top errors, also on the topic of refs thought Ganson was a little weighty when i saw him reffing last weekend, those split fish and curries but be taking its toll on him.
