Will you comment after Wakefield win this season, because it will happen.
Leigh defeated the mighty Dewsbury Rams 36-10, sorry to spoil your evening !

Not really was like 2 bald men fighting over a comb. Wakey were still in it with 15 mins left but couldnt cut out the errors and HKR got a few 50/50 plays to stick.

Wakefield's handling and set completion plus being impotent in attack meant that they never had a chance of winning.
Well played KR but, could be a long season for both sides

Apart from the soft try from DH, our goal line defence was much improved from what I’ve seen from a Rovers side.

Adam Quinlan is our main man and as long as he stays fit, we’ll be reet.

For those that went to the game did the ref penalise any incorrect PTB or not?

Not as it should’ve been. Hardly any correct play the balls. Nothing’s changed from last season but it soon would if the refs actually pinged players every time they neglect to touch the ball with their foot.

I'm OK with how they've policed the PTB. look its not perfect, as you said they could ping every single PTB that doesn't touch the foot. But it's no different to the policing of offside. How often does every single player get behind the referee?

There is a definite crack down on players trying to milk penalties (sarginson falling over because he had a hand on him would have won a penalty last year) it looks like the emphasis is finally going to be on the attacker to look after the ball.

Offsides can be difficult to police as everyone’s in motion, obstructing views etc. The refs watching the ptb and in that moment he only has to see the man playing the ball touch the ball with his foot or attempt very hard to if they miss it. Last night players was just rolling it between their legs with no attempt. I don’t think it’s to much to ask to get the biggest thing in our game right, indeed it is the biggest difference in rules when comparing league to Union say.
