Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Not a problem for me. Seems to handle matches well and have very few problems. He's not perfect - no one is but he's better than Hicks or Child, to name the obvious replacements.

Re: Referee for Friday .... again!
Will say that Kendall had probably the best match I've seen him have - no penalties in the first half, let the players get on with it and when it threatened to boil over took the sensible ' calm it, or else' attitude.
Would have thought though that whether or not Greenwood at the end was a yellow or red will not matter, its a trip to the beak............

Re: Referee for Friday .... again!
i agree he had a good game...... i did think we deserved a few set restarts at times and saints did push the offside to the max...... i thought he was overly warning wigan more than saints at times...... greenwood was 100% a red and he will get bannedGreat grandad Harry ball wrote: ↑Sat Oct 31, 2020 11:58 am Will say that Kendall had probably the best match I've seen him have - no penalties in the first half, let the players get on with it and when it threatened to boil over took the sensible ' calm it, or else' attitude.

Re: Referee for Friday .... again!
I would agree that the ref had a good game but I have watched all Wigan's matches since the restart and the standing square at the play the ball law seems to have died a quiet death.
Regarder une fille en bikini, c'est comme avoir un revolver chargé sur sa table:
Il n'y a rien de mal a ça mais il est difficile de penser à autre chose.
Now Europe is just for holidays.

Re: Referee for Friday .... again!
I wouldn't disagree but the pace of the game with no scrums and set/restarts means that (some) referees are just being realistic about positioning at the PTB. Flops were always tricky as defenders doesn't dare risk a player being able to move if he gets free for a second from the first tackle. I'd like to see the rule amended to bring in the 'dangerous' element so that a prone player can't have people just piling on.
Interesting how touch judges are seeing more forward passes though.
