Could anyone explain how the match officials missed the forward pass in the first Widnes try? It was a foot or so forward. I hate how forward passes are so often overlooked in the modern game. It is rewarding badly executed rugby.

I was holding this one back in case any Mutants complained about the "dubious" award of Hobsons try which was 50-50. It was definately forward both live and on the telly!!

Did'nt think B M was anything but nuetral as was T O considering his involvement with Widnes plus B M could'nt praise Wotto enough.

Can someone explain how Andy Hobson's try was allowed?? Some shocking decisions by video refs lately.

Ball on the line, player put downward pressure on the ball.

That's why it was given. By why is control only used as a factor some of the time? If it had been a factor then there's no way that was a try.

The second Leigh try was worse but I'm not whinging. You get some you lose some.

Paul - no downward pressure at all on Hobson's try. Never in control - never a try. But to use that as an excuse papers over the cracks.
