Keeping everything crossed for Mike Cooper. The guy deserves some luck and hopefully it’s not a long term one again. I’m not sure he’d have got back on the field had it been as bad as last time so hopefully that’s a good sign. Does make you wonder whether he was brought back to early and questionin...

I was just going to say the same thing.

I’m convinced he knew what was coming with the Wardle incident. To make that decision so quickly just felt weird and that’s even with the slightly different rule. Still gutted it was turned down.

THE END?

Could I make a comment, not to criticise anyone, but more a bit of advice from an owd mon who's been around for a while? I'm surprised how much of this thread is devoted to examination of refereeing decisions. I've said before that I clearly remember as an 13 or 14 year old (mid 60s), getting upset ...

L Bollocks to we got the rub of the green !!!! What about there 6 agains what they scored from . Bevs was a try We did get the correct decisions with the Wardle try, their no try at the end, pass to Miski for Keighran try could have been given forward as could several of theirs and the 1 on 1 strip...

"Let's imagine that the Roosters are faced with a scenario: we allow Joey Manu to go to French rugby or we let him go have a stint at Castleford," Johns explained. "It's an opportunity for players to really optimise their income while they're in the game. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol...

Interesting that he mentions church, like he's on the straight and narrow path again. Good for him. It makes me think of the many Christian players we've had, such as Inga, Billy Whizz, Bill Ashurst, Shaun Edwards. I'm sure that the direction from their faith helped some, at least, to be better play...

I'll be at my 5th WCC with my son who was 10 when we beat Manly, his wife from Perthshire, and my granddaughter Sophie who is 10 now. This will be her first WCC and only her 5th live game. She'll be devastated if we lose - here's hoping she comes home happy!
