Cheating wasn't what was meant in the post. Poor decision making is my gripe because a good game was turned into a one sided contest,

As you have read my posts elsewhere, you will know that I expected Leeds to win and felt Huddersfield weren't good enough anyway as they dropped way too much ball. However, it was 10-0 I believe and then 2 poor calls in which he gave knock ons when it was clearly a ball steal from Leeds meant Leeds put the game to bed, consequently Huddersfield lost all motivation and the contest was over. This was a game between 2nd and 3rd live on national television. I, as a RL supporter found the game boring and one sided with garbage refereeing. If I was a non RL fan who just happened to catch a bit, it would have been turned over in 2 minutes. That is my issue with it.

Not national TV but Sky. You honestly expect us to believe that professional sportsmen lying second in the table of their respective competition with a chance to kick on, who are only 10 points down receive two 'Poor Calls' and then lose all motivation. Thats with more time to play than has gone.

You really do leave yourself open to ridicule dont you.

Have you booked your month long holiday starting in mid October yet?

Are you suggesting a side 10 - 0 down plays with the same conviction as a side that is 20 odd nil down ?

Please.....

Yes. They are pros who had the majority of the game to play out they should have been motivated to win and put a further 2 pts of daylight between themselves and a near rival, that would have been a certain 4th placed Leeds at the start of the game by the way.

Are you suggesting a side that is 20 nil down with at least half a game to play should throw the towel in?


Please.....

So in the context of human emotion, a side at 10 -0 or 2 tries down at home to the champions are still as motivated when 20 odd points and 4 tries down at home to the champions ?

I truly give up.

Agree Hudds dropped too much ball to have many complaints.

The referee certainly didn't have enough of an impact on the game to make the scoreline much if any different.

I personally thought the penalty count was reasonable as both sides could been have pulled up on a few more occasions for messing around at the play of the ball and laying on.
