Why what's your reasoning behind this.

Saint's knocked on and Morro(?) I think got it down : TRY.

Jon Wilkin obstructed Langley and then whoever scored the apparent try knocked on over the line but the idiot (sorry I mean ref) gave it.

Also, I hope that whoever threw that half full bottle of coke towards the tunnel at the end of the game gets identified. No need for that at all.

Was it Eastmond? He was one of those thugs at the game today.

I think you'll find of both occasions it was the ingoal judge who made the calls who IMO is a little closer than us. As for the Bradford try it wasn't obvious what it was ruled out for but the IGJ saw something. The Saints one Thaler was going to rule knock on it was the IGJ who said it was grounded.

Well from where I was stood the Saints one looked a certain knock on, but maybe i'm just a bit bitter .

The worst call of the match was not sending Eastmond off, I was directly next to the incident and he basically gave BJ a crack round the face. Disgusting, reckon Leon might have taught him that one. It annoyed me at how many times the ref blew up for high tackles but didn't bother to sin-bin any of them.

If the Bulls hadn't ridiculously opted for 2 points when Saints were on the brink of collapse, a completely different game could have ensued.

As it was, field position surrendered and that's what Saints do to you.

Exactly.

Justin Morgan wasn't wrong, Thaler is a disgrace, might as well not bother with linesmen either as they don't flag for forward passes or offside,

Lack of consistency in referees is really starting to p iss me off

This was a bit of a turning point. If I'd been under the saints posts i'd have considered it a battle won - defend 3+ consecutive sets and then see the opposition decide to kick the third penalty they've received in a short space of time. It gave such a loud message from the Bulls of accepting that they couldn't get it over the line.

Terry was clearly furious at this coming from the bench and let Basil know it.
