I’ll admit he was poor for both sides but you know damn well those 4 penalties were in garbage time after the dodgy decisions just after half time had played a part in turning the game. Seemed like he was trying to even the penalty count up.
Full credit to Leeds but that was a poor refereeing performance that seemed to impact us more. That being said, the injuries (we had one hooker on the bench from 50 mins onwards) played a bigger part than the ref.
There was more than 10 minutes to go when you got those penalties, had you been able to score you could have been 1 score behind with 10 minutes to go, the fact you threw it away and we actually scored is not the refs fault, neither is the fact we took our chances and you didn’t.
As you rightly point out losing those players took its toll in the end.
