Spot on Mike.A mate of mine is a ref and was an offical last night and he that Bentham was'nt told by the VR about the stamping by Mason.And that Bentham wasnt to happy about it after the game.

Mason should have walked after stamping in Fieldens ankle,he is a dirty player and needs to be sorted out. This is why i continually stress that we need a big strong prop who will not accept being bullied.Fielden again went in like a loony and got battered(has he ever won a fight?)We did not deserve to win the game as we are not tough enough up front.Also Sam should be playing at half back ,it is a waste of his talent at full back.I hate to say this but i can not see us winning a GF against Wire or Stains,they have too much strength where it matters,in the front row.

Forget Stains and Wire OH. I hate to say it but the Headingley Hooligans are starting to get their act together at the right time.

I may be shot down but I thought Bentham had an ok game. A ref can never be perfect (unless every decision is for us!!), Mason will go before the disciplinary and Huddersfield will suffer for the remainder of the season - hopefully!

I agree with you here tbh. We can't blame Mr Benthem for last nights result. WE had many chances that we just wasted by panicking and throwing the ball around. He could've dealt with the fight a lot better perhaps by trying to stop it rather than letting it carry on for ages. And he did miss a lot of offsides but from both teams...Sean O'loughlin for instance was stood in front of PB a lot last night...however god knows 13 Huddersfield players were doing the exact same thing!

He definiately wasn't as bad as he has been this season in regards to our games at least!!

Don't konw if you've seen this or not. If that's your opinion of getting battered, I'll have some of what you're on

O-T-O-Bust, Re-BenTham stopping the fightin most "brawls" it is usually a small number fighting and the other players try to lean on and smother it,but when you have 13 Hudds intent on "saving the allamo" at the first opportunity,sounds like a game plan to me.Or am i being cynical?
I also think Sam needs to opperate at half as soon as poss, as he is more of a target at full back with high ball and will get some extra clattering there poss without protection of Ref's.

I agree that mason should have walked and that sam should play at 6,but to say Fielden got battered is total rubbish.I thought Fielden was very good last night and he put that knob mason in his place.

when mason got cracked he turned his back,put his hands over his head and walked off so Fielden getting battered is way off the mark,sorry.

I think it was pathetic and deserved whatever based on how infantile it was but before we get carried away it wasn't violent or with done with incredible force. It was sly and contemptable but in terms of viciousness it reminded me of Beckham when he got sent off in a World Cup.

it was under handed,malicious and cowardly cp and we dont need it in the game so imo he should be banned for a long time.
