One of those where both teams were as bad as each other. MM was pushing his luck in the ruck and Leeming was trying to force the refs hand by not picking the ball up. 

Indeed, I just got the feeling Hicks didn't take too kindly to Leeming trying to make the decision for him.

He gave incorrect PTB which I think came about by Gannon kicking it again.

That’s what you’re going to get with Dwyer, rocks and diamonds 

[Tommygilf]

Very bad hit that

[Chrispmartha]

Got to be a card that? If they’re bein consistent

[Tommygilf]

I cannot believe that wasn't a card, absolutely joke

Catalan are an awful side to watch when they start playing like this, trying to see the game out

Theres the diamond

[Chrispmartha]

Thats a joke.

That is two cards in any other game this year.

[Old Frightful]

Jeez, you can see how Catalans lost the similar fixture the other week.

[Tommygilf]

Really poor ends to sets in the last 10 minutes, Walters and Sinfield standing out particularly.

Poor start really cost us. Whare should have been carded and will probably end up with a ban, Kasiano too - can't rely on that though.

I can’t be too critical of those two theyre young and will learn.

 

im just glad we saw some fight and more importantly fixed up the defence from the first half.

Interesting hearing Bill pointing out the politician sat in the stand , I'd suggest there are local/regional British politicians that attend RL games , Andy Burnham gets to the LSV when he can , the difference is that in France ( and Spain ) the Mayor's and others can and do support local pro sports clubs with money , if that happened in the UK all Hell would break loose 

Different cultures Bill

MM didn't make any effort to remove himself... it should have been a penalty for me.

Maybe next time anything similar Leeming should just trip over the foot rather than delay.  Yep you may it isn't in the spirit of the game but then MM not making an effort was the reason and on most other days and ref it would have been a penalty,
