Not too sure if you realise this but if they are within 1 or 2 metres of the ball on the ground then they are also within a few metres of his foot also, close enough to realise that his foot had not gone into touch, would you agree?

Even some Wakey supporters say his foot was in touch. I cannot disagree with your logic but the linesman indicated his foot was in touch. As you say he had the best view. Even if you were there your view was not as good as his. Why should your opinion be accepted as right when you had a more limited view than the linesman?

On this occasion you lost, get over it and stop blaming others for your team's shortcomings.

The reason we lost the game wasn't because of Tom's disallowed try.
I think we were second best on the day.
We have to learn how to win these games.
It's all been said - wrong call on kickable penalties, defence sitting and waiting to be hit (When will we learn on that one!)
We have two of the best finishers in SL but seem clueless how to get them away.
I give up.

Lets face it, we are a fair weather team, that's not to say we can't adapt but its obviously not our forte.
If you accept that, then its not beyond the wit of man to accept the likelihood that the odd game may be decided on a coin toss.
That's the way it is.
We've made a good start on a nice end of season list of games we lost by a gnats knacker, I dunno if I want a 5h1t or bust list instead..
Hull next week, s'pect they'll be turning the AC on and watering the pitch about now...lol.

I just watched the Trinity TV replays which are from a different angle to the Sky highlights.
I gotta say at the game I had no idea what had happened in either incident, I thought Toms body language was that it wasn't a score and that Maguires was just a high ball bit of luck.
Turns out its more likely than not Toms was a score and that very definitely, Hall batted the ball backwards in to Linnets face which then went forward.
Anyway, it yesterdays news and todays chip paper, the no vid ref turned out to be lucky for HKR, next week it could be us with HKR getting the bum deal, can't have it all ways.
Vid refs should be at all games, the officials cannot be expected to make the correct call every time in situations like that without.

I wouldn’t say one team was better than the other yesterday, it was simply a toss of the coin who won that game imho.

As it goes we have more ball in better positions but all it took was one kick from KR to win the game.

Have to agree with Chester though the speed of the ruck was laughable.

Tough games to take them, I don’t think many other teams would have done any better in those conditions.

that's it coach blame the ref...

does it take the heat of him an the absolute clueless attack we have indie the 20? its been the same for 3 years...

but now we are not scoring the long range tries we have the last couple of years which glossed over the above....

hopefully when the sun comes out over there are speed gets us scoring tries again..
