It saddens me that people have to resort to such abuse about refs and their performances. This 'runt' is a person, and like all of us will make mistakes or see things differently to others. If you disagree with anyone's opinion why resort to such vile language? Agree to disagree and move on. On the subject of the ref maybe you should take it up yourself and see how you fair? Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Loxton Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Its a pity video refs can't intervene when a glaringly wrong decision has been made without it going upstairs. But perhaps the match might last a couple of hours. Wakefield were robbed by something that everyone bar the ref saw but unfortunately all clubs suffer from weird decisions as we all know too well. Think refs must be on edge before they step out for super league games when they are being scrutinised by about six commentators as well as an ex ref.

No there is no need for vile comments but refs are getting worse all the time albeit a terrible job to do. Put simply why are all the bad decisions being made several times in most matches especially with all the technology we have. The first thing to do is get linespersons involved more was gonna say linesmen but god forbid if you opt for a masculine word nowadays. I have always believed refs decide who win most matches simply by either not seeing what has happened or not making the right decisions at vital moments just like last nights Saints match when Ben Barba quite clearly deliberately fouled a wakey player in the act of scoring a certain try. What a purely deplorable decision of not awarding a penaly try and not sending Barba to the bin there is one thing I’m pretty sure about if it had been Hock he would be sent off pronto and a ban would be forthcoming. There were also several other vital game changing errors by the ref all in the favour of Saints no 50/50 in this match. All genuine rugby fans want is a fair crack of the whip and refs punished by hitting them in the pocket for such really poor inexcusable performances like last night. Fans can cope with losing if the result is fair and their team plays half decent but if I were a Wakey fan I would be livid and these constant bias or accidental errors by refs is driving fans away.

saddleworth Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I am fed up to the back teeth with the standard of refereeing. I will not put them down for poor decisions, nor will I call them all the names under the sun for such decisions. Humans make mistakes on a regular basis. What I do strongly object to and cannot honestly work out what is happening, is the fact that consistency appears to have flown out of the window. Off side for one team at play the ball, yet dozens of similar offences are apparent throughout the game and fail to attract the attention of the official. Holding down is another constantly overlooked offence but yet is penalised three tackles later. All I ask for is consistency, be it right or wrong. At least everyone gets a fair crack of the whip.

I agree with everything you say here. It happens regularly NOT just in Fev games BUT two games that spring to mind featuring Fev were Halifax at home two seasons ago.(we will never let it drop)when a last minute penalty for offside was awarded to Fax to give them a one point victory in the entire match there must have been 20 or more off sides gone unpunished. Similarly against Rochdale Moore was punished for being offside with a couple of minutes left when before that many offsides went unpunished. That penalty from an easy position gave Rochdale their shock victory. It happens at all grounds with most clubs whether Fev are involved or not. There are no sour grapes because all clubs are at the mercy of a ref in the last minute in a tight contest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Pike Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Recently read on a RL Website that due to Keighley hitting financial difficulties like Barrow and Whitehaven they Are privy to some information saying in a written statement that in 2021 SL will be in control and are going to create two SL Divisions and abolish League 1 making them become Amateur status .Its obvious that its not a sure thing/done deal but the RFL like ive said Before need to stand up and clarify what the future holds.

haskey Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 The whole game is being ruined by the administration , the RFL is not fit for purpose, and now with Elstone and his beloved SL in situ the power struggle will only get worse and the poor teams in the Championship & below will suffer, I feel.

wasginger Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Oh I can go back further when Gary Jordan kicked the ball from a Wakey players hand just as he was scoring. A legal act back then and where the reffing and rules seemed so simpler, yes even with contested scrums. Is it a case of too much technology ruining a refs job, and are we trying to make rules that make the game easier on the eye for any new supporters, thus taking the game away from it's principles.

jamescolin Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 I remember cheering when an opposition player tried to do a theatrical dive over and whilst he was in the air the ball was knocked out of his hands. He could have strolled over but that extra split second made all the difference. Sorry can't remember which game or our player who knocked the ball out. But he did.

I remember Will Sharp kicking the ball out of Oliver Wilkes' hands near the line in the 2014 Grand Final against Leigh and the ref didn't even give a penalty!
