I stand by what I said about the tackle Pauli did, but that, and the other dubious calls were
not the reason Wakefield lost the match. we cocked up in defence big time leading to one Leeds try, and generally we weren't quite smart enough.
I take heart that, despite spending the least in SL, we're as good in quality as anything I've seen this season.

most of what i said was slightly tongue in cheek, but wakey fans do like to play the victim.
fact is it was cracking game and credit to Wakefield for forcing Leeds to dig deep and find something extra to get the win, it could have gone either way. the big difference was Leeds were able to find a bit extra intensity for a 10 minute burst that strangled wakey just enough to force some errors and got the scores needed.

best side wakefield have had for a number of years, reckon they will spring a shock or two in next few weeks, the important thing is to hold there nerve keep what their doing but learn a few lessons. the wins will come.

Have you had a good view on Rhino TV of the knock on dispute? Give us the answer!

Haven't seen that and not saying it might not be a harsh or incorrect call but you get them in games. Your 2 point penalty looks like the Wakey attacker has milked that (fair enough our players win penalties in the same way) and for your 3rd try when Golding misses the bomb a Wakey jumps in the air but makes no attempt to catch and makes some contact with Golding, could question that.

Just pointing out it's not the one way traffic with calls that some portray.

So true lol
Amazing how so many Wakefield fans blame the refs when they lose but when any other club mention the refs it's sour grapes.

I thought you had gone? ...

Can this forum go for a month without Wakefield Trinity getting the dross of the refereeing fraternity, Willzay???? We seem to get more than our fair share of the Childs, Kendals and Hicks' of this world

Re: Leeds Rhinos - Sunday : Tue Apr 10, 2018 5:32 pm  

I think his biggest error was the knock on by Leeds picked up by a player in an offside position which would have allowed us to even the score. It was unfortunate that Leeds then went downfield to score increasing the gap to 8 points.
To be fair I thought that it was a one on one steal when Hall scored but I couldn’t say for certain it did not go forward.
The bottom line is that the ref ignored many things on both sides which produced our best performance this season.

I wish refs would get stronger when it involves professional fouls, only till it got to our 5 yd line did a player get sent to the bin when to could of cost us the game and there at least 5 previous that could of got the same treatment, fair dos too also binning a player for mouthing off.
a stiffening up of the rules is needed or it will get out of control

I think the key out of place word is "shock"

Its not really a shock, against the general trend maybe but shock seems to indicate there was no reason at all to think we could win.
Its been there on the field plain as day game after game...
