There isn't really much to debate here is there? Surely no-one seriously thinks you can kick a player in the head, pick up the ball that he drops as a direct result and go on score a try? It's a clear mistake by the officials.

I thought both of Marshall's tries were excellent. Also that Warrington showed a lot of resolve in defence - they haven't always looked like a team who'd grind out a win in difficult circumstances in recent seasons.

 

It wasn’t a kick by any rational definition

It also wasn’t a clear mistake unless you know something that nobody else knows

terrible decision a player is kicked in the head and nothing done about it, clearly marshall took the ball safely and held onto it until the kick in the head charnley will get a ban and possibly ratchford as well for a deliberate trip.

on the whole i thought it was a decent game if wigan had kicked the goals wire would have been under a lot more pessure and possibly folded.

mamo is a scroat and i predict a very short career for him.

Well he has been playing over here for 5 or 6 seasons and played elsewhere before so not a very short career by any definition

I think it’s straws, but would beg to differ in any case, in that no one is arguing that I have seen that the result was unfair. Rather a key moment could have gone the other way. The more I think about it the odder it seems that the ref didn’t go to VR, given how the ball came loose.

i don't think the ball actually comes loose mamo takes it out of marshalls arm which in itsself is a penalty.

Why must they have seen it?

Have you seen the precise angle of viewing that they had?

Seeing as the incident took place very close to the touch line it’s reasonable to assume that the touch judge should have seen something.

3 seasons at Wire? 3 seasons at Hudds? 4 or 5 seasons before that. All in that’s a longer professional career not a short one as you claimed

Nope it’s not reasonable to assume although you were adamant so do I detect a change of tone?

Anyway he may have seen it and was ok with play on

The tv pictures confirm contact to the head ( I think accidentally ) so he should have told the referee because that’s what caused Marshall to release the ball. Seeing that a try was scored it was surely worth a look.

You don’t know he saw it so how could he have told the referee?

The first real time TV pictures were not clear and some of the replays were at best mixed

I have no idea what pearl clutching is, but this kind of comment coming from a Warrington fan is no massive surprise.

Wire would have won the game fair and square anyway, but to claim that was a fair try is just Wire all over.

Let’s put it this way. If he didn’t see it from where he was stood then he shouldn’t be doing the job. I think we’ll have to agree to disagree.

No. It is quite reasonable for someone to not see on 1 viewing at full speed from 1 angle what you think you saw after numerous  slow motion replays from numerous angles

Forgive me if it has been mentioned already but an important part of this conversation regarding the Marshall lost ball and the try is this - would that have been a penalty if he hadn't lost control of the ball?

My feeling is that contact with head via hips, elbows, knees etc happen all the time on a rugby pitch and we cannot penalise them all otherwise there would never be a tackle.  It wasn't a piece of foul play and if he made contact with the head it was accidental.

So.  If he hadn't lost the ball it wouldn't have been a penalty and it shouldn't be because he lost the ball... you penalise the action, not the consequence.

If something happens that is considered to be foul play and the ref doesn’t see it then the touch judge should intervene. They are not just there to put their flag up when the ball goes into touch.

Yes we all know that, and if they don't see it?

By referee I mean all the on-field officials. Nobody except the video ref can overturn the refs decision and they can only do it on request from the man in the middle. A touch judge can only advise and not decide.

Well according to one poster here, he didn't drop the ball. Charnley kicked his noggin in and then mugged him of the ball.

One of the things that stands out for me on this 12 page thread is the misconception that any contact with the head, regardless of intent, is a penalty. 

That's just plain daft and there's nothing in the rules to support it.

Well done as always to the overwhelming majority of Wigan fans who are always fair and knowledgeable.

It should if there is play continuing around the actual player concerned (players diving in to tackle etc), but in this case the ball carrier was already running 100m down the other end of the field. It had no bearing on Marshall's safety, and the medical staff were free to immediately come on to the field without interfering in play.

What about the late tackle at the start of the second half?

The ref blew before the ball landed even though as you state in the other instance the ball was down the other end of the field and the medical team wasnt impeded to see to Austin.

Its the inconsistency in reffing thats the issue.

Also the ref was taking Wigan back 11 to 12 metres each time for a spell when warrington were attacking but when warrington were pinned back on their own line it looked less than 10 he was taking them back.

Oh for goodness sake, have a word with yourself in the mirror. You and "my missus" are usually good posters so I don't understand why you've both had a conniption.

The ref said he blew before the ball landed as he didn't want a coming together of players when it did due to the nature of the "challenge" on the kicker.

As for the 2nd part of your post, don't be so ridiculous.

Kicked? Really? Twice? Really again? It'll be a murder before the end of the evening
