You're not covering yourself in glory on this thread.

Neither of those tackles were worthy of a card,penalties were the correct decision.

[SalfordSlim]

A decent team would put 40 on Catalans at home.

Joking aside, they're pants and Leeds could easily be 2 scores up by now.

Oh and I know I've said it before but that pitch really wouldn't look out of place on my dad's allotment.

I think the 2nd one was bad tbh,  but none of that is owt to do with a tackle last week.

The video referee conversation with the match director reminds me of my conversation with my 9 year old daughter every morning when I am getting her ready for school.

I ask but she ignores everything I say.

 A BXXXXXTEER?

The crowd getting wound up,  players getting heated,  great stuff! 

[gingerjon]

Officials need to take control of this or else we won't finish before midnight.

Great coverage this for a play off . Really helps the VR to…

[Dave T]

This really does highlight the difference in coverage doesn't it,  can hardly tell what's happened!

Yes, let's take a step back and realise this is proper play off rugby. A full stadium, nobody sat at home saying they will turn up for the grand final, two sides who look well matched.

I don't think doubling down is the way to go mate  

[Dunbar]

That's a fair card.  There was nothing there till Pearce ran in.

[Davo5]

Tough,uncompromising & feisty,what playoff rugby should be,great stuff.

Yes . Might even be a punch up . 

[Tommygilf]

I actually really like Oledski as captain

Who knows,  we only had a camera shot from behind the swimming pool at the end!

The view from the back of the stand maybe helped him a bit
