Come on! the referees get slammed for going to the screen too much now they get it for not sending it up. 

It was not 100% I can see it being a no try in the NRL but probably given in a SL game. 

If it had got up for a "No try" then I don't see the video ref overturning it.  He plapped at the side of ball. I'd call it a bounce.

[Mattrhino 1,193]

Knock on

Hicks is gonna check everything now lol

Good stuff by Coote; repeat set.

No try unless

We need to face facts, very few people have the disposable income for a trip to London, ticket to the game and all the extra costs that comes with it.

Austin a big miss for Wire,but nice of Lomax not to turn up this half to make it fair.

Yep. I'd say a definite no try in the NRL but I wouldn't be sure over here in SL. IMO it was a no try.

Refereeing spot on again. Just want Wire to win by 5.

Try for Philip Bin? yes!

[JohnM 5,736]

Get in!

Lol

[RSN 852]

Great work by Philbin, pretty ran 35m in one set and scored. 

[hullste 47]

Knock on by Wire into Grace ref wipes tackle count for them. Come on absolutely diabolical from Hicks, he so far is deciding the result of this game.

If you ask most RL fans they have been for 20 years. 

That's a relief... I would have had to sue my opthamogist.

[YCKonstantine 265]

Knock on by Warrington, not grace, oops!

Hicks strikes again, Wire knock on against grace and they get the decision.

It was a very arrogant call from him. I appreciate refs need to stamp authority on games but not at the expense of a crucial decision. 

Arrogance is what came to my mind too. It was not clear. It was very important to get it right. His arrogance in believing he could tell such a quick play without the need of assistance could cost Saints.

At least the Wire fans won't be able to blame the ref at the moment.

[RSN 852]

Saints look a bit rattled last 5  - 10 minutes. Not making as many metres and the odd unforced error. 

[RSN 852]

Blunder by Coote, maybe Saints are getting over awed? 

[Old Frightful 5,452]

"Cooooote..."
