It was the Sandercock era when the club reported/complained to the RFL (2x apparently). Morgan had his Thaler tirade in I think 09 Easter vs Hudds - and who can forget his penalty try decision @ Wakefield. Fair to say he isn't our favorite official and I doubt he has much time for the club either after our complaints - however justified or not.

We used to have an appalling record with him to go alongside his standard of officiating but I suspect that has improved marginally in recent years (coincidence?).
Still, tbf he was accredited with a try assist for Cockayne's effort vs Leigh last time out.

One of Thalers strong points is he can diffuse potentially volatile situations, by jumping in between the miscreants, pulling them apart and then reading them the riot act. This, in such a vital and emotionally charged game could be pivotal and the difference between a team winning and losing.

Freudian slip? Do you know something those of us in Blue and Amber don't?

When I heard talk that Cockayne may not be in the 17 I thought he'd got the gig. He can gab that lad.

I just remembered the cheating little turd let Danny McGuire's try stand at our place which more or less cost us against Leeds at our place 1st game of the season (it was all thalers fault and nothing to do with the other 34 points we conceded)
