His point about what goes around comes around is valid. The examples he uses are poor, IMO. You can disagree with whether a penalty should have been awarded, but complaining about its location and timing is bizarre.

Correct me if i`m wrong,but i was stood at the bar in the pub , and thought i saw Briers demanding a Rovers sin binning !
Awful if true , and Smith should have sent him off,don`t need it our game thanks

No mention of Smith not sin binning Fisher when he took out our supporting player. The superior side won, if our full team was out it would have been 60.

A bitter obsessed Wigan fan neutral? Okay then.

Think Blakeys sense of humour went over your head there mate.

The fact that Wire were camped on Rovers try line for most of the match obviously means nothing, we should have renamed the HKR tryline Butlins.

Yes but that wouldn't turn into a winge against the ref though would it?

With the amount of duff decisions Smith made in your favour you should have put 80 past us.

wire only won that game once smith sent off Newton, if he hadn't kr probably would have held out all night and possibly even won what the score being only 6-4. That sin binning was the turning of the game and ruined what was a well fought contest, even though it was poorly refereed from the off.

I feel my decision not to have SKY but instead drink copious amounts of alcohol whilst sat in the garden talking rubbish with Ms. pmh has been completely vindicated.

Not like you mate.

Everyone's got a special talent, you've just got to seek it out.

not with that clown smith in the middle it aint...

Yes I saw all those,certainly not wanted within the sport of RL those actions. More common in italian football.

I just love coming on oppositions forums after the game and find out how robbed such a team was.

If you haven't got anything better to do , it happens so stop crying about it and move on to your next game.

Absolutely. Look forward with optimism, no point going on about refs.

He was utter garbage and ruined my handicap bet i had for you guys yesterday. It was 6-4 and that killer decision Grix clearly tried to offload and he dropped it that went as a ball steal. The question I ask he had time to look at it so why didn't he go upstairs??????? Absolute garbage reffing. Also that high tackle Briers been a total wimp also Briers when he asks Smith to go to the video ref he did when your players did he didn't. Absolute garbage he needs to grow a back bone and he owes me £50 was a tight game runined by the plank in the middle !!!!!

I didn't no Smith and Silverwood were the same

if hed have sin binned Fisher in the first half we could have scored 3 or 4? Swings and roundabouts, now put your bitter down.

What are we doing so wrong that were upseting refs week in week out, 50/50 calls sometimes even 60/40 calls are going against us. noticed on wednsday aswell we've slipped to 7th or 8th in the fairplay index

Yep. Both SL referees.

Both silver foxes

It is what happens in all sports. The refs aren't cheats, but unconscious bias can creep in. Saints or Leeds have a fast line, Rovers are offside. Their tackles are dominant, we're lying on. A dropped ball is more likely to be assumed to have been stripped if you are an England international. More often than not when we get lucky decisions (and we do), they come against Cas, Salford, Quins etc.
But we have to defend too much. You give more penalties away when your tired and under pressure. That puts you under even more pressure and takes more out of the tank. It can become a downard cycle and we don't have many players who can turn the momentum back our way.

Bang on comment mate,we don't want that in our game leave that to the wendyballers.

The ref got a couple of calls wrong last night for you guys as they do every week for different teams. Youve had your fair share of the good calls in the past too.

On a different note the ref isnt the one tackling around the head. Rovers discipline is awful at the minute and was last week (or the week before) when you were on TV too.
