This is about the referee in a Wigan v Hudds game. NOT GENERAL RL

You are discussing the referees performance

YES in the Wigan v Huddersfield game Josie HENCE that is where the thread should be

Did anyone not notice the inconsistency in the 20 meter restarts.
Thaler was never in position on any of Wigan's restarts, delaying the restart on every occasion. Wigan were ready to tap the ball but Thaler just told the players to wait.
He was, however, able to get in position for Huddersfield's tap on the 20 allowing the advantage of a speedier restart on most occasions.
Am I being over critical ?

I noticed that PM but I would like to think it was just because we are fitter and quicker than Hudds and he genuinely wasn't ready for us unlike Hudds, rather than another conspiracy theory!
