I honestly thought I would never see the day, that I thought rugby league would be ranked as low as professional darts,American wrestling and some bloke on itv wrestling having his mask ripped off-when unconscious, would stoop so low, as to attract a tv audience.

Tonight, I saw it. Now I admit to having a betting interest on Crusaders to win the game, but the descion(sic) of the ref/video ref to allow the Saints try, brought the game into disrepute-big time. Why don't we just admit that SKY dictate. Quite convenient that the race for 2nd/3rd goes to the final game of the season.

words fail me, if you want proof of sky-dominated games, just have a look through the shocking ref/video ref descions (sic) that have occured over the past few years on live games.

Ultimately, this could cost Crusaders a top-8 place and a cash windfall.

He sounds as cross as a cross in a cross shop. Brian should have words with him.

I have to agree. It certainly looks that way. It's not like saints needed the refs help, which is why i can't understand why the decisions were so against us

They weren't. We were dinged left, right and centre for penalties, because we deserved to be. But that 'try' by James Roby was not a try even though his efforts probably deserved one. Me and those I was sitting with were all saying what a damned shame that it was short and were totally shocked when Smith awarded it. I still can't figure out how he called that as a try even now that I've watched the match back! But as for penalties ... I'm sure you were awarded more than we were. It certainly felt like that!

Either way, the final score flattered us and you didn't deserve to lose by that number. Based on your first half performance, you didn't deserve to lose, period.

It was a dodgy one....that said Emmitt seemed to have a very good claim chalked off so it all evens out.

Brian Noble must be losing all trust in the whistleblowers after the last two weekends and rightly so

It was reported as being a stray elbow but whether there was any malice is unknown. If there was then it will be picked up by the RFL when they do their weekly review. I doubt anything is being done about it by anyone else.

Confirmed on Saints website this morning that KC does not have a fracture or break to the jaw so he is probably just bruised.
