Westermans face when he saw the red card was akin to the face he pulled when he saw the camera pointing at his face behind that Greggs :lol:

All referees are constantly talking, generally to the defence telling them to get back or letting teams know which tackle it is. Haven't noticed anything more
Im all for the keeping the markers square etc but there comes a point when its too much.yes they all do but this is overboard and imo is for the bbc cameras

Respectfully disagree although I'll pay a little more attention second half. Have put sky on now as I can't stand BBC coverage

Fair enough i just hate refs ruling the game.At one time they were bent but i told missus he would cain cas after basically giving them everything.Its so pre planned and way to many games have even pens which cant be right.Sad for thompson but omg mago looks awesome

Leeming speeds it up and now his Ankle is gone.

Points on the board, but an expensive knight potentially losing Thompson,Leeming,Smith for next week and Field looked a bit iffy at the end.

Kicking is better than this time last year. It would have been criminal to let him leave.

Mixed bag all round, great result, scrappy game, some worries ahead of next week...what happened to Keiran at the end and Isa going into the centres?

Have to agree on BBC coverage, was looking forward to it and it was pedestrian.....switched back to Sky who seem to have learned some lessons from C4!

Job done. I agree with Firestarter, Mago was outstanding. Shame about Thompson but that’s the way it goes, step up Harvey Hill.
