I thought as much. Just another part of the punishment from the RFL, £20k fine and IS to ref your play off match

Oh and Mr Connolly, Wigans finest is the match commisioner

I wonder if he'll hear the half time hooter this time. I've heard of refs being blind but never deaf as well.

Ignore that, it was Silverwood who didn't hear the half time hooter v HKR at Wigan earlier in the season. HKR then went on to score.

It's his voice. He shouts that loudly he deafens himself.

One of the touch judges (Thomason) is a better ref then the main ref on the pitch
