hes just dosnt know how far 10 yds is ,he plays with a very shallow 10 which means your oppenents are sraight in your face ,take into that the length of time he lets you lie on ,it means a very slow game ,which suited the giants more than us bring back KK (not)

He allowed lying on after a surrender tackle. I noticed in the warm up and also during play that they were falling to the ground as they fell into the tackle. This gave Huddersfield longer to get up.

I thought he policed the play-the-ball really well, he did as I explained and he also stopped the stupid messing about like lifting the foot after the tackle is complete.

yes he did control the play the ball very we;; but that still dosnt make up for a very very short 10 ,come on rob as you know more than anybody its not rocket science

There were a few occassions where I thought he could have given offside but he didn't, but they were nothing major though. Nowt worth getting your knickers in a twist over Mike

my knickers not big enough to get in a twist

If you know a team is standing offside why do referees not simply take them back 12 yards thereby getting the 10 they desire.

Some do... but you're only meant to take them the ten.

[mike binder]

he never said take them back 12 he said him go back 12 and than he can see more and if they are 3 yds in front of him they are offside sounds easy







































not lol

I am just thinking common sense Rob. I do not think any referee wants to keep awarding penalties and teams play on that trait. So the referees to my mind have got to be as cute as the players are with them.

Slightly off on a tangent, what about the on report tackles, will our lads be okay or in trouble?

I'm not sure what the best course of action is, as most of the time you'd take one back 12 and the other back 10 using that incentive which would wind up those going back 12. Other option is to ping them all, or just pull up the ones that cause blatent interference, going a fraction early isn't really that serious. All sides do it.

There was only one wasn't there? The dangerous throw? I think they'll be alright from what I saw, didn't look anything malicious, just sloppy.

there was to many men in the tackle to pull 1 out was a little dangarous but nothing you dont see every week
