Hicks is defo helping leeds tonite....... isnt it about time that our refs stop having so much influence on a game? Ive lost count how many forward passes leeds have thrown ,yet wire are the only team to be punished......clearly playing to-a bent crowd........ i think the powers above need have a word quickly

Leeds were having a laugh with the not being square too, I thought they got away with murder. That said, the score was a fair result.

Wire fans seem to have a big question mark already about 'superstar' Widdop!

Leeds controlled this game from start to finish with some entertaining rugby made,possibly, by the lack lustre efforts of Wire. Re- Hicks, he tried to save Wire from the ignominy of being "nilled" in the closing stages of the game. Leeds don't seem to have offloaded the offload (Wigan take note! Enjoyed the game👍

Yes it seems so. In the past I've cynically claimed much the same but again,cynically,I've come to accept the game is what it is and the "blame " doesn't rest solely in the officiating of the game. If the officials officiated in keeping with the rules constitutive ofthe game, the game would never get off the ground (so to speak)

yes good point but ide much rather them punish the teams consistently,rather than keeping an even pen count...... he was totally blind to leeds forward passes last nite.....most refs have been for a while
