Scott Taylor

I keep saying it but this guy has got so much potential. He has a touch of the X factor with his athletic ability. He just needs to show and there is no reason why not that he can do the hard stuff on defence / attack better.

Big penalty aside he was our best forward against Saints and he had a good showing again today. the biggest compliment is I think us fans get exited to see him carrying the ball.

That 'big' penalty against Saints was put on report but at the Judiciary was found to be not guilty !

Was a BIG decision as it cost us many metres and put Green in the Bin, as a result of Childs putting out a general warning following the penalties and Taylor's tackle on O'Brien.

If you read the RFL review they actually say penalty sufficient for illegal shoulder charge that didn't contact the head - it was still a penalty and we still gave about 4/5 in 10minutes, so the outcome from the ref would have been the same.

Thanks for the info, Markill - just read that - it sounds like a "whitewash" to justify a ref's decision. Especially when it goes on to say it was an accidental collision with someone else that caused the injury to the players head.

Agree 100% with you on some of the penalties, namely the two or three by Dudson. If Childs had used his brain, he should have probably put Dudson in the bin rather than use a technical offence from Green to justify using the bin like this. That would have been less damaging to us, instead of losing a key midfield pivot with 12 minutes left.
