Quote ="methley dreadcat"Agree with Luke being motm thought he was awesome today.also think forwards worked their socks off.on the down side thought the large linesman on the east stand side in second half was a joke and seemed to do al he could to make us lose the game.also was it the right decision to give drop out against us when they kicked a penalty straight touch in goal?'"
It was the right decision - any penalty kick that goes dead, whether it's a goal attempt or any other kick, restarts with a 22m drop out.
You're right about the "large linesman". I know that, in the heat of the moment, fans often think that officials have got it wrong then see it on the replay and realise that it was the right decision but I was stood on the East paddock and there wre two incidents that sent me in to total apoplexy. For both incidents our players were claiming the opposite to the linesman's/ref's decision but, to their credit they accepted and didn't get rattled. Great team performance. Luke George definitely MotM for me. Only regret is that we arrived five minutes late and missed his try!
On a slightly different note - are all the "moaners" from Wednesday feeling a bit better today? Don't get me wrong - I have some sympathy for those who were "locked out" and kept waiting but surely you must see that this has been one of the best weeks in our recent history (and not so recent - the best week since about 1967 probably!!!)
