I've mentioned elsewhere all the high tackles that went unpunished, Rob. HKR were a perfect example of a team learning early on what the ref will pick on today, and what he'll ignore. On another day, high tackles will be penalised, and technical scrum offences, for example, will be let slip.robjoenz wrote:I found it interesting that when Wigan played Huddersfield the media had questioned Huddersfield's tactics and following the game a lot of fans said they didn't play in the spirit of the game. Yet last night Wigan ended up with 5 injured players requiring stitches and no-one questioned their tactics. I'm not saying that KR's tactics were underhand I am just wondering how much media opinion has to do with fan opinion.
On a side note, is the 4th official (or any of the off-field officials) allowed to correct a mistake such as the hooter incident?
