But the way he and Lowes ripped into the video ref after the game was most certainly not. |

I have always thought that he has come across as a very like able and magnanimous person. He always seems to give the opposition the respect they deserve. He is obviously a great coach and I think he will finally be the one to make Warrington realise their full potential. |

I would have given the try Rovers fan or not the referee had not called held and his ball carrying arm had not touched the deck. Salford vs Hull FC a fair few years ago the ref called held then went to the video ref because the player fell off the tackle and the ball was grounded over the line the video ref gave it. In that situation it was wrong because held had been called before the grounding in this instance Silverwood hadn't. Can understand Smith and Lowes frustrations at that time of the game it would have been a crucial score and could have changed the flow of the game. |

Shouldnt matter if he had stopped the ball carrying arm had not hit the deck and the referee hadn't called held so try was or should have been the only option left open to him. I may be wrong here but I think the only time a video referee can adjudge a tackle to be completed is when the ball carrying arm has touched the floor. I am not saying I agree with the rules I just think that Warrington were hard done to on that call after what has happened in the past. Although rather different if we go back to the NRC Final in Blackpool where I think it was Scott Murrell was being tackled but in the motion of passing the ball his ball carrying hand brushed the grass and he was done for passing off the floor yet the tackle was not complete. This in real time should have been a try but on the video replay by the letter of the law it had to be chalked off. I just guess it goes back to Justins old line of "things even themselves up over the season" and you cant disagree with that we've had our fair share of tries not given this year. |

ball carrying elbow i think is the definative rule, that and the tackler has to have a hand on you even if its only a finger tip think back to dobsons try in the derby after whiting slippedunder the bomb, cookes wrist touched the floor but not his elbow |
