The obstruction was correct IMO, O'Loughlin was in no position to receive a pass and was standing in the line with the intention of stopping the defender. I accept that Ablett probably made sure he ran into him to ensure we got the penalty but thats not the point.

If Lockers wasn't on the field would Ablett have made the tackle anyway?

(The answer is no btw )

Regardless the fact is he shouldn't be prevented from attempting which he was. Leeds got done for a similar one not too long after

Are you serious?

He would have had him tackled with ease. What is it with people not watching the match? get a copy and look at it again. Hock was a yard away the other side of O'Loughlin. O'Loughlin impeded Ablett. As clear an obstruciton as you are likely to see, and had he not been there Ablett would have tackled Hock. Quite simple.

Wrong

I was at the game and I watched it back on sky+ on saturday morning

Lockers stopped about half a yard before your defensive line whilst Hock came steaming through on Lockers' left shoulder through a pretty big gap in your defensive line

Ablett was too slow to cover and realised he wasn't going to make the tackle so did his best to make it look like he had been obstructed and that muppet Bentham took the bait

Even Stevo thought it was a try so it must of been

Question

Why are you even @rsed? If I was a Leeds fan I would just be happy with the 2 points

Should he have given them is an Opinion!
It may be hard for you to take in due to Never having been Wrong before but I live in hope that somewhere along the line it will!

Juke, have you not realised yet that you're trying to reason with an idiot? Give it up man...life's too short!
