For the only areas that can be significantly improved is dissent, off side and in and around the ruck.

We did not give any penalties for dissent, Off-side is unforgiveable - I think we only gave one penalty away - it is around the ruck - we seem very slow at moving away from the tackle the likes of JJB and Ablett appear to be very slow.

The only problem with that is the ref's lack of consistency - IMO Leeds have been on the end of some pretty poor reffing where different interpretations have been applied to the opposition. The penalty awarded against McGuire for interference when he trying to take avoiding action as the winger jumped for the ball is the type of 50/50 decision that has gone against us.

Who was the main culrpit for that on Friday?

Either JJB or McGuire although I am not sure how many of the penalties given against McGuire were for holding down - one certainly wasn't holding down

I saw someone in a Homer mask, I assume it was our very own Springfield resident

Funny sort of an advantage that. I wonder if they'd swap their "advantage" for our position if offered.
