I can barely remember Ben Thaler through out the game, which is the way it should be.

He controlled a high speed, aggressive derby very, very well but let the game flow.

I`ll second that.

Thirded.

Watch it back Alex. You can see it in the archives of the site you saw me on the other week if you've not SkyPlus'd it.

watch it again,ok not many penalties,but the few there were ie mcilorm,was never a penalty.to me if we are playing by the rules average.

The most atrocious miss of a knock-on aside, yes, he was mustard.......

Honestly?

I thought Wigan got nothign out of the officials tonight.


Every 50:50 went against us.


I honestly don't think the ref had a good game.


Btw imo Hock scored a try.

The Wigan knock on that Eddie and Stevo were moaning about, Phelps offloading in the tackle was never a knock on, infact the ref should have wiped the tackle count.

Tough call though, and i agree good performance tonight from the ref.

I thought Hock's effort was a good try too. Looked like his body still had momentum over the line, rather than him being stopped and reaching out. Course, that wasn't Thaler's decision. Will have to watch it again.

Missed a blatant forward pass for Ainscoughs 2nd Try, but maybe that was down to the TJ to spot.
