He was utter garbage and ruined my handicap bet i had for you guys yesterday. It was 6-4 and that killer decision Grix clearly tried to offload and he dropped it that went as a ball steal. The question I ask he had time to look at it so why didn't he go upstairs??????? Absolute garbage reffing. Also that high tackle Briers been a total wimp also Briers when he asks Smith to go to the video ref he did when your players did he didn't. Absolute garbage he needs to grow a back bone and he owes me £50 was a tight game runined by the plank in the middle !!!!!

That sin binning was the turning of the game and ruined what was a well fought contest, even though it was poorly refereed from the off.
if hed have sin binned Fisher in the first half we could have scored 3 or 4? Swings and roundabouts, now put your bitter down.
What are we doing so wrong that were upseting refs week in week out, 50/50 calls sometimes even 60/40 calls are going against us. noticed on wednsday aswell we've slipped to 7th or 8th in the fairplay index

It is what happens in all sports. The refs aren't cheats, but unconscious bias can creep in. Saints or Leeds have a fast line, Rovers are offside. Their tackles are dominant, we're lying on. A dropped ball is more likely to be assumed to have been stripped if you are an England international. More often than not when we get lucky decisions (and we do), they come against Cas, Salford, Quins etc. But we have to defend too much. You give more penalties away when your tired and under pressure. That puts you under even more pressure and takes more out of the tank. It can become a downard cycle and we don't have many players who can turn the momentum back our way.
