There is simply no excuse for that dreadful call by the video ref yesterday. The on field ref has numerous things to look at. The video ref has only one, in slow motion. Sometimes the blurry videos don’t help, but yesterday’s was as clear as day. Harry Smith took out a Cas player. The Cas player hadn’t been in possession of the ball (so Smith can’t be ‘committed to the tackle’) and was the player closest to the loose ball in an attacking position. Should have been not just a penalty, but a yellow card as well.

Because it's Harry Smith.

Livened up a bit now.

4 of us! On here, anyway.

Yep. Knock on.

VR even said knee was down on first replay.

Looked fine to me too, but that was the reason given.

Lost control and didn't regather before grounding.

HKR have Morgue and Martin playing. Who will be kicking the goals?

Salford have named a 21 man squad. Not sure if that has happened this season yet.

As with all games at the moment, Salford will do well to keep it below 40. Joe Shorrocks will be a big miss.

I think you need some cover for the back line, including the halves. I was at Wembley when Shaun Edwards was sent off and thank goodness we had Bobby Goulding to come on.

I think they remained full time. Can't see that being done this time.

Oops. Missed it! Sorry sir.

Add England to that for an even better 6 nations.
