Apologies it was Crooks and he had the ball in his hand when his foot was in touch after Yaha was pushed of the ball, thanks for correcting me and of course the try still stands as the papers correctly state.

No problem. I agree that it shouldn't have been a try though. Mind you, I thought Danny Tickle's disallowed effort in the second half should have stood. The ball was ripped out of his grasp, (in a 'one-on-one') and he simply followed on to score. So I guess that evened out.

If ever there was a contest to prove the maxim of 'it's an 80 minute game', that was it. You have to stay switched on for the FULL 80. I'm a very disappointed Leyther, but credit to Catalans for not giving up on what should have been a lost cause.

Yes, but full credit to Catalans for never giving up.

That's Myler's SEVENTH citing for tripping, in the last three seasons! Sooner or later he is going to get suspended for it!

Also slightly surprised that Bird hasn't been cited for the hit on Reynolds, that angered Acton. As for Acton, well he deserves what's coming to him. Whether Bird was faking or not, it was one of the most stupid things I've seen done on a sports field!

Personally, I think the citings for 'punching' are rather severe - it was more like handbags and was over with very quickly.

Bans for Bird, Yaha and Garcia. Fine for Myler.

Acton's hearing put back a week. Which is strange.
