It was originally the Friday night Sky game. Huddersfield asked Sky if they could swap th fixtures around so that they play Friday.

It was a shocking decision by Thaler, but Bailey try was a double movement that wasnt given. It evened itself out but its still no excuse for poor reffing

Just watching the Sky game and Thaler has just awarded a try to Randell in what was a similar incident to the Semi 'try' from last year in the play offs.

Given that there was a fair amount of publicity regarding why the Tadulala try wasn't awarded, why was the Quins try allowed? It seems Thaler deemed it backwards due to the player looking at his own tryline. I deemed it a knock on, but why are our full time ref's still making such different decisions?

Talk about inconsistency!!

Neither were tries, both clear knock ons. Randalls try should of been disallowed it nearly cost us the game.

So if Semi had performed exactly the same action but running towards his own line instead of Wigan's that would have been play on?

Never got an answer to that at the time, don't expect one now.

Semi's disallowed try was correct, he knocked the ball forward towards the Wigan try line.
Randal's try should have been disallowed for the same reason.
