I have to agree with him about the high tackles, having seen Cullens review of the game on Boots and all, Roger Meli got away with a belter, on Fox I think, luckily for him Pryce joined the tackle leading to the penalty for another set of 6 during which Fish went over for the decisive try.
Surprised to hear he's bleating, he always comes across as such a cheery little bunny.

Sour Grapes, He also forgot to mention saint been offside at the kickoff which they got away with twice, and an unlucky call on Welham going back to collect the ball (50/50 call) and that they were hardly ever back the 10.

Swings and Roundabouts my friends!

Were you at the game?

Ours or Potter's?
Having watched the game last night, if he is talking about unusual and inconsistent interpretations, he maybe has a case - though not much more so than in most games. Any suggestion of bias or that Saints lost because of the ref look pretty weak, IMO. A couple that could have gone the other way gave us a chance to snatch it - but Saints had the better of it early on (the first hour or so) and that played a big part in Rovers having to come from behind.

I'm not saying this boastfully, as it was a weakened Saints team, but Rovers should have won more comfortably and Saints would have been gone with time to spare on another day.

Difficult to judge at the time but Meli looked a yard offside for his try, think this would have been pulled up by a VR.

I am suprised Potter has brought this up after looking at the video of the game.

Meli knocks the kick forward to wheeler for their first try
Meli was offside for his try

Lets hope he mentioned these in his dossier

What a load of dogs testicals, Unless you were at the game how would you know wether they were offside or not.

They were afew 50/50 that went our way, other times they wont go our way and ill moan about that of course - will i send i letter to the RFL saying how bad the ref was because of it, NO.

If Potter thinks we are a team that hold down in the ruck then that is 1 of the reasons they lost, as we are very poor in the wrestle and dont hold them down long enough like Hudds/Leeds ect do which puts the attacking team on the back foot to start with.
