Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

For god's sake - why Bentham again? Has he got the keys to the video truck? His last two performances have been outlandish.

Can't the club make some representations about having someone else please?

It could be worse. It could be Silverwood after the way he shafted Castleford last week.

Recently Robert Hicks has been quite good.
A vast improvement on what went on before with him.

I think Bentham's injured and can't be on field ref, so to employ him they give him the VR gig.

That's what I've heard. I think he's been injured for a while so he's had the Vid Ref gig.

Bentham's had a broken arm for a while now, so as you say, he's only capable of operating as the VR. Just hope Hicks isn't influenced by the home crowd on Friday, as I think of him as a "homer" ?
