  1. This implies the referee favoured Warrington. Yet Salford scored the majority of their points from penalties awarded by the referee which rather contradicts your statement.
  2. This was referenced as an upset win. I really don’t see how, two teams close together with Leigh having home advantage.
  3. A general premise that games are won based on tries scored. Not definitive by any means but generally an expected outcome.
  4. Dealing with the points in isolation. The King penalty was given based on the player holding onto his shirt as he is trying to play the ball. Sometimes given, sometimes not, but a penalty all the same. Ethan Ryan was behind Dufty when he kicked the ball. He came from an offside position to take possession of the ball. I’m struggling to understand how you don’t think this wasn’t a penalty.
  5. Your assertion that the referee was required for Warrington to win is somewhat bemusing, as Salford scored two-thirds of their points from penalties. Can you cite specifics as to how the referee influenced proceedings?
  6. No lack of effort, in fact far from it from Salford. If they had kept their composure in the last ten minutes, then who knows what may have happened.
  7. Entertaining is not a word I would associate with this game.
  8. Your post would have some credibility, save the fact Salford scored eight of their twelve points from penalties.
  9. A synopsis of departed referees from Ganson’s time: https://thetryline.blogspot.com/2023/01/the-toxicity-of-match-officials_15.html?m=1
  10. Yes, the standard is lower. It started when Ganson took over as head and the experienced referees were culled. The issue is the current crop never had the opportunity to officiate alongside more experienced refs, effectively being thrown in at the deep end.
  11. Very disconcerting. The son of the 19 year old prodigious talent is a chastening reality check.
  12. But the same applies to Tai on Armstrong. No approach will be 100% Refs need to step back, lialise with the VR and make an informed decision. The game will never eradicate head knocks completely, there are too many variables at play.
  13. Warrington really have agitated the injury Gods; Ashton, Fitzgibbon and Thewlis added to the absentee list. I can’t recall the last time three players left the field not to return?
