So on Sky tonight Justin Morgan was very gracious in defeat <:snigger>
We need to consider ourselves very fortunate that we got the rub of the green, what with starting with a depleted side, losing a handful of players to injury throughout the game, going down to 12 men at a crucial stage of the game and getting absolutely caned in the penalty count
I'm not overly sure what Morgans gripe was exactly. Any ideas?

Simple.He doesn't know a knock on when he sees one.
[watching Mackay testing the curry in the prison kitchens] Fletcher: Course, he sees 'imself as an authority on curry, he does, on account of where he was stationed in the army. Rudge: Where? India? Fletcher: No, Bradford.
Webster's disallowed try maybe?
Plus I thought we were fortunate to get another set of 6 that led to our 1st try.
The ball seemed to me to hit Aizue rather than him making a play for it.
BUT if HKR's passing had been bnetter they may have had 2 more tries in the 1st half. That wasn't the ref's fault.
Morgan did say that it will even itself out over the course of the season.
On the other hand Bentham seemed determined to find us offside where he overlooked their trangressions. Better in my view to give leeway to both sides otherwise we end up like last week, what was it 11 penalties in the 1st 20 minutes?

Oh, don't get me wrong, I was being kind of sarcastic in my initial post!!
He was miffed at Websters knock on. However only him and Stevo thought it was a try from the SKY team (and no doubt 90% of people watching at home)
I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he hadn't seen a clear replay.

Nice that we won...particularly for those near us who sang about Bailey going home in a coffin. Hope they enjoyed the first of a few losses at home.....
No one ever stopped the church by pulling down the steeple,
You'll never beat the system by bombing number 10,
Systems aren't just made of bricks, they're also made of people,
You may send them into hiding but they'll be back again
personally, if was was a KR supporter, I would've felt slightly agreeved at not having the Webster no try awarded. I think on another night, given a different video ref, that one could've stood.
