We have seen many great captains in SL not be afraid of speaking well with the referee but argueing their point to the full. Too many times in the past Kev has backed down and accepted what the ref has said even if it was clearly wrong.

I know I may get comments on this but I would like to thank Kev for showing that although he may be very polite and a well spoken captain, that no longer will we just accept calls and wrong penalties going against us without the ref having to well and truely justify them.

Obviously last night Kev didnt agree with Bentham and was quite clear in his approach. But not once was the dummy spat out.

Fox stood there looking bemused even after a blatant professional foul.

I believe if you check the RL by-laws, it states that any Captain winning three Grand Finals is promoted to the rank of 'Super-Captain' and with that rank goes the privilege of questioning any and all decision as he sees fit.

Think I heard Sinny somehwere say during his conversation. Am I not Captain, thus am I not allowed to talk to you - to which Bentham replied yes you can (so Sinny was just joining the ranks of other captains in the past ala Joynt, Sculthorpe, Farrell, Deacon etc etc)
