Good to watch you say? Nice how the Ref deals out discipline you say? Even -handed would you say? :

Hmmm ..... let's see now, oh yes, Peacock wasn't sin binned for the 2 high shots on Sam Tomkins, nor was Senior for kicking out 4 feet into the air causing Joel Tomkins 8 stitches to his eyebrow!

However, Liam Farrell (and you can watch the video in vain to prove me wrong) was actually in the air when Maguire kicked the ball. Call me cynical, but it's a little difficult to twist and change direction in mid-air don't you think. He then collides a little onto Maguire, who rolls over as if steamrollered by a 30-stone forward.

So who deserved sin-binning? According to Bentham Farrell was the only one. Coincidence, but the 3 games we have lost this year have had one thing in common.

Can you guess what this might be?

Who was the video ref? Ray Charles?

Not forgetting the ludicrous call to penalise Lockers when his arm was trapped by the Leeds lad...

Steve Ganson


Was a complete joke the turnover.

I can accept getting beat by a better team, I can't accept getting beat by the ref.

It's like getting clamped when you have a crap ref like today as it's really snidy and there's buggar all you can do about it than grin and bear it.

BillyRhino with a balloon symbol? Thought Leeds own balloon had burst from the start of this season!!!

Even with Bentham giving you lot umpteen relieving penalties on your own 10m line, you lot didn't look like scoring until Bentham's relief struck home with 5 mins left. You couldn't even keep it in our half when we were down to 12 men!

Leeds will be lucky to get to the eliminators this year, let alone any GF.

For all Leeds fans who weren't "bothered" about the cup yesterday just watch them get on board for the semis now! After all, it will be the only opportunity of silverware to get this year.

hmmm...and you lot looked like scoring a try everytime you had the ball...give over,you're having a laugh

you lost a tight but poor quality game (admit conditions played a part) that could have gone either way and simply blaming the ref stinks of sour grapes

get over it and concentrate on winning the league

Anyone remember when Bentham penalised us for being offside on our line, and I'm sure he said to Bailey two feet behind the line. A bit of consistency wouldnt go a miss, when you had Leeds players that didnt have both feet behind the line. Bentham was a joke.

The real joke is he wasn't even looking at Bailey when he was an inch offside, maybe a word in his ear from Ganson?

No mention of the spear tackle?

Strange

I hate blaming the ref but we didn't half get some stinkers going against us, Coley's push, O'Loughlin's hand trapped, video ref calling turnover and worst of all Farrell getting binned. Having said that sometimes we didn't help ourselves with our extremely poor handling, not using one sub, barely using another sub and not wrapping up Lee Smith, that was a very very soft try to win the game, I think it must have been pure exhaustion.

Bomb into the air, Smith knocks it on, Sam picks it up, runs for the try line and is held up. Why did we not get another set?

no try correct should of been a pen to leeds.because as the leeds man was airborn a wigan player did make contact with him.there was clear contact there watch it back.

Sorry if i'm wrong but wern't they just other players in the air going for the ball aswell!?

yes smith was challenged in the air doesn't how much contact there was there was contact and since smith touched the ball with a wigan players hand on him watch it again.no point moaning about the ref no mention of the spear tackle and i bit wigan will get a few dodgey tries like pryce's last try agaisnt the cru swings and roundabouts

But those players were also going for the ball aswell, obviousley they are all going to make contact...or are they just supposed to stand back and watch smith catch it in fear of putting a finger tip to him and conceding a penalty. Come on it's Rugby not football.
There has been plenty mention of the 'spear tackle' yes it was a bad tackle, i wouldn't have complained if he was sent for 10 after that, but he wasn't nor was senior. Farrel was sent for something nowhere near as bad. Inconsistency is what's annoying, that's why there are complaints about refs.

Silence is golden, plenty of one eyed pies one the board since yesterday

so can you be challenged in the air the rules say not.
a lot of tintid views by the pies sure you get the fair rub of the green from the refs over the whole season

Bless you must lead a sad life

They were challenging for the ball. Like i said, were they supposed to just stand there?
Most if not all fans have 'tinted' views, obviousley they're going to support their own team, that view isn't really tinted, he knocked on, clearly, so we should have had the ball back.

i thought it should of been a penalty to leeds. the ref has to ref by the book clear contact on the leeds man the wigan player was knowere near the ball.
if wigan won it would have been a great reffing peformance in wigan fans eyes.
have wigan ever had a dodgey try like pryce was in touch last weekend for his last try

This isn't about dodgy tries, though you obviousley want to bring that up as often as possible. lets be honest that not being given wouldn't have been a turning point, we smashed you. And by the way, we won that game and i still thought Alibert had an awful game (for both sides) so no, if we had won, i still would have thought there were some awful decisions.
nowhere near the ball? what like halfway down the pitch, or a few inches, Lee smith jumped higher and nearly got it, but knocked on, a wigan player didn't punch him in the back or pull his legs down, him knocking on wasn't due to anything like that.

the refs decision is final the players get on with it so should the fans.
bradford had a try disallowed last week for minimule contact by nero on donald

Well this is a forum, peopel discuss their views, if we just had to get on with it and never try to dispute anything then there wouldn't be much to talk abot would there.
Yes i know they did, and that was ridiculous. What's your point...
