Aye. Agreed, Atomic.

Championship is a good competition. It deserves better officials.

Re: Gareth Hock : Sun Jun 21, 2015 10:05 pm  

I didnt think the tackle deserved a red but i was the other side of the halfway just behind the visitor bench. I will jave to look at the video. I have a question though Reffy. In that passage of play leading upto this event. We knocked on. TG - i think it was - kicked the ball forward and Sheffield got the ball. In the meantime the bad tackle happened. I would have thought that the foul play would coceded the penalty but the ref went to a scrum to Shefield. Is that right. I thought serious foul play always took presidence over everything.

Re: Gareth Hock : Mon Jun 22, 2015 8:36 am  

The ref got it correct, Sheffield were in possession when the ref spotted (or was told of) the foul play, if Leigh had been in possession it would have been a penalty to Leigh. I will add that if the rules have changed in the last few years then I may be wrong.

Fans from the West at the McNally incident are saying the TJ told the ref what had happened and he refused to act

My owd mon said he believed the TJ said something along the lines of 'He's got to go'.

The TJ should have stuck his flag up, he didn't, he bottled it. I have seen TJ reacting only after the crowd vents their anger which is poor.

Don't worry about Aston's red card, it was a spear tackle alright and, off the ball!
Its getting tedious now to see the tactics these thick Yorkshire Coaches are employing against us, roughening us up won't win you games against us! I detest Mark Aston he was a nuisance as a player and irritating as a Coach! Those in the North Stand will not have seen that nutter Tulapapa maurading around the Leigh dugout trying to pick a fight! he put his head to Jukes's head and 'chased' Jukes around the Dugout! I could not believe what I was watching! thank goodness Hock didn't get up and smack him although, something inside me was willing him to do it! Tulapapa is a crackpot!
This rough house stuff is just going on and on the RFL have got to put a stop to it!
From my seat in the west stand the 'hit' on McNally looked a straight red? it definitely would have been had Gareth Hock made the 'Hit' !!

Re: Gareth Hock : Mon Jun 22, 2015 9:21 am  

I was surprised to see the red card to be honest.

Cory Aston's face was a picture though. A key man for the Eagles gone after just 4 mins.

I was laughing my head off.

It was Paul Anderson that Taulapapa was squaring up to, not Neil Jukes. It was also Taulapapa that smacked Hock on the back of the head.

So he's an idot and a coward.

It was Anderson not Jukes. Though Rowley & Jukes came down. Did you see Rowley having to move Keith Senior away from it all after he came across to get involved!?
