Has any else noticed that refs are allowing players, especially from Stains, to show dissent against decisions?
Ok, the captain can ask for an explanation but this business of say Whelans throwing his arms up and then others joining in is turning into a joke. They should send em back a further 10 meters as soon as they open their gobs.

Re: Player dissent especially the smellys
I'm sure that a ref did take an offending team back 10 on one occasion over the weekend. It occurred to me that it was the first time I had seen that in a long time.
And you're right about dissent going largely unpunished. Wasn't long ago Eastond effed & jeffed at a referee without so much as a talking to.
Last season, Ganson gave Sam a yellow card for backchat!

Re: Player dissent especially the smellys
Obviously you werent at the blackpool v workington game on sunday.
2 panthers were binned for dissent. Well, the first was appealing for a knock on and I didnt see the second aiming a comment at the official but didnt hear what was said.
That reminds me, anyone know the email address to write to the rfl about refs?

Re: Player dissent especially the smellys
Oh I know he is a dirty player who has no control over his temper, some of his behaviour is inexcusable. doesn't mean he should automatically be binned for shouting for a knock on. certainly cant say same about keavney. and when macdonald mouthed off in second half why didnt he get binned?cpwigan wrote:Mark, to be fair Hobson is a serial offender
Are you just going off reputation or were you at the game cp? because my criticism of a lot of refs in these situations is they just go off reputation...don't put yourself in with the referees!

Re: Player dissent especially the smellys
As much as ignoring reputation is a great ideology, if a referee gets abuse from the same player again and again they will start to act on it sooner because as in a disciplinary hearing previous record will be taken into account. What I don't like is when players get penalised because the refs suspect an offence/intent of an offence based on previous behaviour even if they've not seen it. If a player is regularly committing and being penalised for the same offence but not learnt from it they clearly IMO need a harsher punishment, if this is a sinbinning then so be it.markill wrote:Oh I know he is a dirty player who has no control over his temper, some of his behaviour is inexcusable. doesn't mean he should automatically be binned for shouting for a knock on. certainly cant say same about keavney. and when macdonald mouthed off in second half why didnt he get binned?cpwigan wrote:Mark, to be fair Hobson is a serial offender

Sinfield got Leeds marched back 10 against Hull. One of the few penalties the soon to be beatified Rhino's gave away.
