He did it at least a couple of times last night (our last set and one for Cas towards the end when they also scooted instead of going for the DG being the notable examples) and has done it a couple of other times in games that have been on Sky. It's poor and really needs to be sorted as it can (has?) and will cost teams points.
Thought he was poor - especially whe it was the final tackle and handover to Hull only for him to run backwards and wave 5th tackle - then to be told by his touch judge it was the hand over!!!! However he never lost us the game!!!

Accurate all the way. Was poor both ways so I don't have any complaints. Did amuse me when one guy in the South Stand screamed that 'we're the home side, ref' as if being biased to the home side is not only allowed but actually in the rules!

I was disappointed in him as when I've seen him ref on tv and previously, he's been OK.
On Friday he made a couple of big mistakes as mentioned but for me he let both sides lay on for far too long and the 10 yards was non-existent. He told Cas a few times that they were offside but never penalised them. I have no problem with a stop start game if both sides are infringing. On Friday, both were, yet he let them get away with it. Our 10 yards was pretty good most of the time, but we strayed a bit too and never got pinged.
Overall inconsistent and has done (and will do) better.
But didn't cost us the game! That was Danny Tickle..........
