Ben Thaler : Thu May 04, 2017 9:28 pm  
That was one of the worst refereeing performances I have ever witnessed.

Right up there with the Ronnie Laughton one against St Helens.

How Cas fans can stand up singing cheat cheat is utterly beyond me - Thaler won you that game.

That said Brough is now a complete and utter liability and should be fined by the club.

Indeed.
Webster's sin binning was baffling. The Huddersfield player was still moving forward and the ball carrying arm had clearly not made contact with the ground. It wasn't even a penalty, never mind a sin-binning.
He also had a clear view of Brough's attempt to end Millington's career, but decided such an cannonball was only worth a yellow.

Monaghans forward pass for the try?

The tackle on Darnell McinTosh in the air - the Cas player didn't even get a word

The high tackle on Ollie Roberts with 2 mins to go and just waved play on?

Constant offside and didnt get penalised once?

the knock on in the play before the first try?

Monaghans pass was not forward. Look at all the angles.

Ben Thaler did not cost you the match. Danny Brough did. End of.

Those decisions, whether right or wrong, don't lose matches.

Brough deciding to kick a drop goal with 25 mins to go, and then go for goal, when you've got a tired team on the ropes, is what lost you that match. You had so many chances to push for a try but just didn't go for it.

I agree with that regarding Brough - hes been a good player for us for years but hes had it now his head has utterly gone. Cannot keep his cool - id be happy with him leaving with immediate effect.

1. Clearly just mis-timed.
2. No contact with the head.
3. Didn't notice.
4. It's what happens when you have a magician playing, he can make his own knock-ons look like a mistake by the opposition.

Fully understand why you aint happy with Thaler. Thing is....even if you got them calls, could you have done enough to win that game?? Before blaming Thaler you need to try and work out why you didnt score in the second half even though you were camped in our 30 for most of it.... If Broughy didnt throw his dummy out you would have probably held on for the win too??
Thaler was poor but Huddersfields attack wasnt much better in our 20. in the other 80metres you looked half decent.
