That's fair enough, no complaints from me.

Really?
IF that’s all it was then that’s OTT in my opinion.

Stephen Ganson has had his fair share of controversial moments both on and off the park .
It is bizarre that he should hold such a pivotal role in the Rugby Football League .

Very true, I still have not heard a valid reason for the Chris green offside call as of yet.

There is a valid reason and it’s the one that was given. He tracked the wrong man.
It’s inexcusable, unprofessional and shouldn’t ever happen. But that’s the reason.

Thanks buddy, thought that reason was an urban myth, I will have my own theory but will keep it to myself, and just for the record I don’t believe it was deliberate. Alls forgiven

As a saints fan I disagree. The ref needs to be respected.

That means shut up and listen, the ref did the right thing in both the Matty lees case and lms. I'm tired of the softly softly approach.

There is no need for a player to talk to the ref. The captain need only responsed to the ref.

If they want to question a call do it after the game, or raise a complaint with the head of refs.

But surely there’s more options before a yellow card isn’t there? I don’t know the incident in question but surely he could penalise for dissent and take the team back another 10 before resorting to a sin bin?
