  1. Video refs are making quick decisions these days, thankfully. Someone must have had a word that it had become farcical.
  2. Yes, about 4 in a row he decided to ignore, (favouring Wakefield)!
  3. That's twenty more minutes than me, I can't get motivated by the skill level that now exists in a large portion of Super League. I expect Sky are thinking the same.
  4. What's going on with the Guardians and Panters logos? Anyone know what they represent or signify??
  5. Was listening to the online match commentary, but had to do something else as it was depressing. Oldham are dire tonight, if I had paid to watch that match I doubt I would return in a hurry, the Oldham players almost seem uninterested in competing. Sad that the biggest crowd of the season are treated to that showing.
  6. Huddersfieid should be ashamed of themselves for spearheading the boardroom campaign to eject Catalans from Super League, and then embarrasing themselves with lethargic performances on the pitch and dreadful attendances in the stadium. It's looking increasingly likely that one team playing today will be ejected from Super League before very long, and it's not going to be Catalans.
  7. The smiles on the cheerleaders faces was a sight to behold! Here's hoping for more Leigh tries in that corner of the ground, it will keep me from switching channels.
  8. Does the referee have to sent up his decision for video review as "try/no try" or can he say that he really has no idea, and that the video referee can sort it out forensically?
  9. Which is how the poll is set, it's one or the other, not both. "Would you prefer our home games to be played on a Friday night or Sunday afternoon?" When I used to go to 'Sheddings, it was a Saturday afternoon, or a Tuesday under the lights, neither of which is an option anymore.
  10. Judging from the match commentary, it didn't come across as "magnificent" by any stretch of the imagination. But a hard fought victory against very formidable opposition for sure. The momentum is building nicely!
  11. Much stranger things have happened in RL than this. Organic grass-roots growth rather than an imposed, top-down pre-packaged club is do-able and arguably, preferable.
  12. Finally, the Captain's Challenge might educate referees that if the ball doesn't go forward, then it cannot be a knock on. For years, referees have got away with ignoring the backward movement of the ball, pronouncing knock-ons when it's often just a fumble.
  13. Dario will be smiling from ear to ear, stuffing the wage packets with win bonus money... Oh, hang on....
  14. More good news coming out of Oldham. Is the much-touted "permanent home" a yet-to-be-built structure on this Sportstown campus, or is the rugby club to have their own facilities inside Boundary Park stadium, and will continue to share the pitch with the football club? Or is this still unknown at this time?
  15. I was hoping that the news would be that a brand new stadium for rugby league was in the works, but that's clearly not happening. A joint venture with Latics and OMBC is probably as good as it will ever be, so that's worthy of celebrating. Details are incredibly sparse, no doubt that will change over time. What could possibly go wrong?
  16. Who coined the phrase "Little Wembley" and what does that name signify to anyone?
