This guy has the worst referee in this League!!! The man was an embarassement tonight - nothing but whistle whistle whistle.
To quote Stevo about Mr Laughton once:
"Well we know now when it gets to Christmas and birthdays, a little warbler (whistle)", and boy, good old perma-tan needs a new whistle doesn't he

Dreadful decisions. Makes Silverwood and Clown look good.
Re: KARL KIRKPATRICK!!!!!!...
Silverwood and Klein ARE good compared to that bias clueless clown we've had tonight. Jeez I bet reserve referee Jamie Leahy could have done a better job - and he's an NL one referee.
Get Kirkpratick demoted now!!!!!!!!!

He's awful. I am fairly sure that Pat Richards was tackled in the air from the kick that Wakey scored their try. Such a poor 10 too. You need to keep teams apart in bad weather.

Re: KARL KIRKPATRICK!!!!!!...
Didnt get to go casue i am stuck at work but just spoke to my father and he said that kirkpatrick was awful. He said that it was a short ten and Hudds players were lying on in the tackle for the majority of the game. Catalans did the same against wakefield and got two sin binned. Once again the inconsistency is unbelievable

They took the lead with a penalty awarded against us for moving to the side to play the ball
What annoys me most is that he is pedantic about prissy rules but quite tolerant of high shots.
A bad referee in good conditions an abysmal one in awful conditions. I have read that several aussie refs have applied for the full time posts coming in next year. Here's hoping.

Sharp thinks Hudds were hard done too
If a decent referee had been officiating his players would have seen the sin bin

Re: KARL KIRKPATRICK!!!!!!...
You say a decent referee - you mean anyone else other than Berkpatrick. It's Noble that should be saying that Wigan were playing against 14 people, not Sharp.
Re: KARL KIRKPATRICK!!!!!!...
He was awful he let Hudds get away with murder somebody should have gone to the sin bin they were persistanly lying on in the tackle missed high tackles forward passes etc etc etc
