You didn't go to the game then?

I was at the game and you quite clearly point out that the referee made decisions which in your opinion went against Leigh East and affected the outcome making no reference to any decisions against the miners.Now as for the alledged try dissallowed for double movement thats new to me could you enlighten us all.
I will agree the referee was poor as were the touch judges a lot was missed by all three and we will leave it at that shall we.

Nothing can detract from a fantastic result from the more committed Mighty Miners

I went. After 20 minutes I would have bet my place on a comfortable Easts win.

Fair do's last 15 mins Miners came back from the dead. Easts lost it. A good game for neutrals.

Easts will bounce back to win this league.

I thought it was a cracking game, the Ref was a bit fussy at times and then ignored a couple of things but don't all ref's? East started very well taking control but late in the first half Miners seemed to start clawing their way back into it, in terms of territory and possession, they then built on that in the second and overall probably deserved their victory.

Well done to Miners, Good Luck to East on winning the title, it would be good to see both teams in a re-run in the Grand Final.

Contrary to what some may think, the lack of highlights is more likely due to the fact Fred's on holiday rather than East losing.

East didn't have a try disallowed for double movement.

Correct. I was stood in that corner during the first half and in my opinion it was a rightly dissallowed try but for the wrong reason.

The ref disallowed it for a knock on even though the Easts player didnt lose control of the ball.

The right decision was a double movement but the ref didnt give it.

Great game to watch, I think Easts are a better team overall, but once Miners got a roll on in the last 20 there was no stopping them.

That's unusual, seeing the word "agree" in a reply to one of my posts. I also agree that we will leave it at that however I will add that I can only comment things I see from "my end" .

In my view Easts sank down to the Minors ( deliberate spelling mistake ) level and stopped playing their game and retaliated to the dark sides thuggish tactics

A good try disallowed for the Easts , a blatant knock on for the Minors winning try but overall a good derby game and fair play ( pun ) to the dark side for not giving up and stealing the win

Ah well still 2 away games left for the Red and Blacks to get the point they need to win the league then onwards and upwards to win the grand final and hopefully meet the Minors there
