I haven't voted as I don't want to skew your poll (well Durham Giants poll but you know what I mean) but you never looked beaten last night and have to be given credit from the way you tried to run it [ifrom anywhere[/i to get the win. You only attempted the penalty when all other options had been extinguished.

point gained for me,i thought rovers were slightly the better side for most of it, but a deserved point for again fighting back despite making lots of basic errors again

Point won, we didn't respect the ball enough to really win the game. Thought KR played the basics better than us but we looked to have one or two more individuals who could pull something out of the bag ie Brown's try. ATEOTD though we bombed too many chances and failed to get to the end of enough sets to have won that game. We can talk about penalty tries but there is no way you could say Brown would definately have scored and a penalty try at the end would have been too cruel on KR (although if they'd not capitulated at the scrum it wouldn't have come down to that).

Point won, we lost to much ball in the first half and we strugled to impose our self's on the game it was only when we had our backs against the wall we show what we can do. a great point won i think.

A point lost for me, we should have finished off the chances we created, had we done, we'd be out of sight.

got to remember basically playing with a patched up pack.therefore cant expect to be giving good leads to opposition and taking full points.would suggest bulls by far weaker than 2 hull sides

over last so many years we have always struggled to make a come back in a game and last 2 weeks made good comebacks i feel our mentality is getting better when where put in tough situations but deffo a point gained kr was the better team and they should be feeling its a point lost

I think in the end a point is about right. At the time i was angry that Silverwood did not give us a penalty try for the incident with Kevin Brown but on refelction i think it would have been harsh on either side to lose. Huddersfield were on top first twenty minutes of both halves and Hull Kr took over in the later stages of each half.
Attacking wise Huddersfield were not at their best but i thought the defence was good for most of the game which is pleasing after some of the recent performances and shows we are getting back on track.

Ok, in the cold light of day i have watched the highlights again.

WE WERE ROBBED!

After a weekend of reflection and thinking on the game I thought, yeah, point is fair. Watched the highlights and Silverwood needs sacking as a referee for not awarding either of the two penalty tries.

Brown, yes you can argue he still might not have taken it cleanly, but he was still tackled without the ball.

Hogson is a stone cold. 100%. Nailed on penalty try every single day of the week. He took it cleanly, he was well inside - 2 feet away from the touchline and he even grounded it cleanly. The only reason he hit the corner flag was that he got hit in the air. There is no reason on earth that under English RL rules that isnt a penalty try.

you dont get penalty trys for being tackled in the air if you did there would be an extra 30 trys a season probs so cnt argue bwt that coz it doesnt happen

also the brown one there player gets a touch on the ball before making proper contact with brown so his played for the ball not the player so cnt be a pen try or a pen in that fact

Ok. Ignore the brown one.

Hodgson.
Took the ball cleanly.
Held it.
Grounded it cleanly.
The only reason it wasnt a try was because he hit the corner flag.
The only reason he hit the corner flag was because he was tackled in the air.
Tackling a player in the air is a penalty in the RFL rules.
Fouling a player in the act of scoring a try results in a penalty try.

Where is your confusion?

i havent got any but how many oen trys do u see given when someone is tackled in the air

none soo ohwell we didnt deserve to win soo

Erm, it does happen, but mostly players know it should be a penalty try so try to wait till the player is down.

Watch the last RLWC final for the penalty try awarded to New Zealand...then come back and tell me Hodgson should have been given the penalty try.

that was in a world cup final international is different to english league refs are set on different rules n what is given in situations n that

end of the day it wasnt given, it was a fair result so im ending this little arguement here its gone its over nothing we can do bwt it so

Actually, the international rule and the english rule are identical in this case.

its on the the ARL rule thats wrong/different

shurrup trav!



it could have been interpreted either way,but i think we were unlucky not to get a penalty try, on the other hand had it been awarded against us i dont think we'd be too chuffed about it?

I have seen the replays now and think this is a point lost. In terms of the overall game maybe not. However if he had not been tackled in the air there would have been more than a good chance (80+%) of a try IMO. The penalty tackle def. save a try.

Just watched the Boots 'n all replay of the last penalty we conceeded, for offside. No way on earth to me did this look offside?

Half the team were offside including the player stood right next to Bentham. What i found annoying is the fact both teams were offside on numerous occasions throughout the match and Bentham did not give one penalty. Yet he gives one on the last tackle a yard from our line. Referees are not consistant with the way they police the offside law.

and thats why fans get mad, sure refs make mistakes, they are only human, but boy did they cost us in this game

He gave us offside just before that which gave HKR the lead. The first offside of the match!!

I haven't actually seen it myself but apparently Finnigan was shouting to some of our lads to get back and Bentham maybe reacted to that...?

I may be wrong but i thought the penalty Bentham gave hull KR to level the scores was given for holding the player down (horne??)

It was for Horne punching the ball out of the HUll KR players hand after the tackle was completed. A criminally stupid penalty to give away that saw Horne immediately get taken off.

True. But 2 or 3 minutes later he pinged us for offside which put HKR in front.
