I thought the referee had a great game, hardly noticed him,. Thank God Ganson is gone, he would have made it the Ganson show.

Agreed. He made a few mistakes, but nothing to complain about too loudly.

Also impressed (and shocked) to see a touch judge actually make a decision for once when Pat was obstructed running back for a Hull kick through.

All officials were really good. I suppose Hull could have been penalised for holding down but on a difficult day, thought they all did very well.

This!

Best game Bentham has had for a long time

The flow of the rain was what affected the flow of the game. Bentham and his TJs were solid. No ref can be perfect but the game wasn't changed on any referee decisions so you must credit them something.

Hull had a rush defence out wide to negate or usual second man plays. They were often offside ad they looked to implement this tactic, but Bentham didn't pick up on it once.

Wane needs to make a fuss about this to ensure refs in the playoffs are checking rush defences are legal against us.

Wane has been making a fuss for the last 6 games.

The officials IMO were excellent

so neither team was offside in the whole of that game then?surely if the weathers bad its even more important to give the game a chance to be a spectical.

Teams are always offside in every game. Both teams equally so I would suspect.

eh so that's fine then?

Its not 'fine' but you can't call every offside. Its not how the games are refereed, it never has been.

The ref had no negative impact on the game yesterday in my opinion.
