But Im not going off memory im going off video evidence which is better? im not saying Hobson didnt deserve it as the intent was there, but the Fev player reaction was a bit OTT not that any other player wouldn't do the same just stating a fact, and thats something you cant argue against.

The fact that RL isn't cheap anymore means there has to be a competant man in the middle. I only had to read one post about this ref and I knew what you meant, he was a shambles last Friday and obviously a shambles on Wednesday.

People pay £15-£20 to go watch a rugby game they shouldn't have a referee thinking everyones come to see him.

Ave a go yourself :wink: :lol:

And no it wasn't Roger :wink:

SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

In all honesty they go into a profession/hobby knowing they `re going to get slated by one set of fans.......Pseudo SM fans...... :lol: :lol:






How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?

Rather than criticise the ref (even if he was cr@p) I though the object of the exercise is not to give the ref an opportunity to make cr@p decisions. Hobson clearly did and he will remain a liability as long as he plays.






Leigh Rugby is for life not just for Christmas.

I think some are losing the point no one has/had any qualms about the sending off of Hobson its the refs overall performance thats at question.
