I think in the past the refs have been in awe of some of the bigger clubs, and maybe that it is disappearing now that refs like Ganson have realised that they are the stars. I do think Leeds are the worst at the play the ball, gamesmanship, whingeing. Now the refs realise it too.

Missed my point by miles, We are poor in discipline, however tonight the same calls were not given to either side

Refs, like players, have good games and bad games. Tonight Leeds played poor at times, gave away cheap ball and were undisciplined (don’t get me started on gobby fekkin Ablett) but we scraped a win and come seasons end it’s the two points that we’ll remember.
Saying that, Ganson also had a dire game, along with touchies and the video ref – it happens. But we really need to address our discipline, it was the single contributing factor to our near loss tonight.

What about the wakey conversion that wasn't? as those right behind the sticks will confirm.

I was right in line with the kick – I cheered when it missed (as you do) and was then rendered speechless when the touchies waved their little flags.

I didn't see the game, but by the sounds of things too many players are having a natter at Ganson. Sinfield can, as he is captain, but the number of times I heard that Webb, Diskin, Ablett etc. were giving their two-penneth worth is unnerving. Bluey has to get the message out to get on with the game, although the interview afterwards doesn't fill me with confidence. We are becoming moaners and have been for a while.

And Wakey are the Ronaldo's/Gerrard's of Rugby League - throwing themselves to the deck at every opportunity trying to get decisions in their favour.
