I found myself cheering on Dewsbury tonight (never thought I'd say that) but you were robbed of a win!

The Daley Williams/knock on by Fax call was a load of bullocks! Fax knocked the ball on and, then it hit Williams legs and I think it was actually your 3 that got his hand down first to score the try. It should have stood as Rams took advantage and scored a try. I can not see for the life in me why Ian Smith called it 'No Try'. Was he watching the same game? He has to be the worst video referee in the game!

As for Buchanan's break, Worrincey was always going to catch him but what happened after that really confused me. It was a nailed on Rams try, which was stopped by a professional foul. There should have been advantage to the Rams (you were 100% scoring a try) and a sending off for the Fax player. Another case of Clint Sharrad eh?

Unlucky tonight to be up against this sub standard level of officiating that's going on at the moment! Fax never looked like winning until the tides turned on you!

Ian Smith should stand down after such a decision..I fear for Fev at Fax next week it was clearly a try and from the outset he was looking for excuses as not to give it...looking for pushing then non existent knock ons...try going to specsavers;

and did you see Ian Smith miss those tackles... Oh and when Smithy dropped the ball too... I also can't believe Ian Smith made Dewsbury run out of energy after 60 minutes....

yeah robbed....

Fax certainly got the better of the decisions but were Dewsbury robbed? no!

Conceding 3 soft tries cost along with not being on the right side of the 50/50's, inc professional fouls! Funny tho all Fax wanted in the 1st half was a decent ref?! Is that because we made the game harder than they thought it would be?
Gutted not to win but I didn't expect the BP, to be fair.

Yes, Dewsbury did let in two definite soft trys. But don't you think heads go down when things start going against a team.

By the end of that match, Dewsbury must've wondered what the hell they have to do to win a game as in my opinion it were there's to lose. I don't think either side played extremely well to be honest but it were Rams that adapted for the conditions and we all know Halifax turned up to Owl Lane expecting a walk over and just didn't give Dewsbury the respect they deserved. Did you hear how happy Rhino was with the game? He had nothing to be pleased about with that display. He was just so happy to get out of the heap against lowly Dewsbury!

Got to laugh at people who think Dewsbury was robbed. They got a couple of decisions go against them but the way Dewsbury were allowed to mess around at the play the ball and slow Halifax down was a joke and allowed Dewsbury to match Halifax. Another Ref would have blown up alot more and Dewsbury would have been struggling with the penalties. Dewsbury played extremely well and in defence looked better team. But they dont have the quality of somebody like Penkywicz, White , Worrincy who can create so much havoc. Dewsbury should have won the game yesterday but didnt do enough to create the chances to win.
The match officials are a joke not just in this game but throughout the game. I have no idea what Stuart Cummings does with them but he certainly doesnt do a good job in raising stardards or even having consistancy. I fail to see how a linesman cant spot players so far offside like in last nights game. Even the commenatators mentioned it! As Batley fans have mentioned why was Black sin binned but in last nights game everything was allowed?

Got to laugh at people who think that it's a touch judges job to put their flag up if players are off side. They can't do it, it's not in their job description. They can only advise a referee (if they are wired up), not make a decision on it.
