Well it's clear on the re-run that Cas could have been penalised numerous times for hanging on to the leg in the tackle, laying on, hands on the ball in the tackle. All the smilies in the world wont change that, nor the result.
One team had 67% of the ball and around the same in possession plus the rub of the green with some very inconsistent refereeing. The other team got the points.
Where is pyeman anyway? Not so full of himself now, is he...
If London is Athens, Yorkshire is Sparta, a tougher community and proud of it.

Eating a pie ?
Science flies people to the moon. Religion flies people into buildings.
Not strictly true. They were found 'penalty sufficient', which I suppose means they did grapple.
What gets me though is that first game in Saints grappled and didn't get pinged. We were up and off straight away to our disadvantage.
Bradford, we were up and off straight away. No matter, pinged like no ones business.
Against Cas we played more like Saints did in our first game and got men in the tackle to slow down the PTB. Pinged like hell.
It's not on, we don't know how to play because there is no consistency. And the comments from some about how we're apparently dirty are just laughable. We're trying to play to the rules, but the refs don't apply them consistently.

Saints have been the worst (best?) side for grappling and lieing on for a good few years. I don't know whether to call them worst or best because they take it to the margins more than anyone else and seem to get away with it.
