Ditto.

RE Webb offside, I thought it was blatantly obvious why the try was disallowed, I didn't spot it at the game but when I watched it back he was obviously offside and it isn't as was described on SLS a "hardly known rule". If you know Rugby League you should know the rule.

Not enough credit is given to the officials sometimes. At least they allowed play on and see how it developed, well done to them.

IMO He's one of the best is Ian Smith, always talks to the players and lets the game flow, the polar opposite of new-age Cummings Clones like Child, Laughton etc.

He could have been giving forward passes and offsides all day as from where I was stood both teams were playing very close to the line and more often than not, past that line, but as we moan about, we aren't paying to watch referees blow their whistles, the obvious ones he got right ie// Hall's disallowed try (although he did miss the forward pass for JJB's try).

Smith for me is a top Ref who doesnt make many mistakes. He is not a Showman like Ganson and he just gets on with it. Off the field he is a gentleman as well and is willing to chat to people and has done a lot to help amateur rugby league in various places. Keep up the good work Ian
