I have seen him perform on the u18s/20s and his performances there where 3rd rate at best how the heck he ever got onto the SL panel is beyond me. Perhaps with the shortage we had early on with Smithy retiring they bumped him up, well that was a mistake.
I can see Rich Agar getting a hefty fine as will the club judging by some of the comments I have seen attributed to KH. The RFL has always backed up its officials and I see it will do no different here, they may deal with Mr Childs put him back a division or have him quietly retrained. If they admit one of the officials has boobed it opens up a whole load of what ifs, including teams asking for re matches etc.
Hefty fines,even touchline bans and warnings about future conduct to those involved, Longy will get at least two matches. The RFL will be keen to snuff out any dissent in the ranks and anyone expecting this too end with him getting publically censored are going to be awefully dissapointed.
For my money they where right to think it and very wrong to say it, they know the rules.
