I thought the ref was ok, think too many jump on the ref as for the excuse, certainly much better than the ref that did the Hull-Catalan game!

And so you should, without getting involved as to who benefited most from his decisions' he's clearly not ready for SL and seems to have learned nothing from last season.

Good post and like you i thought Brough should have passed to Brierley, It came off as it often does but Brierley was on hand for the pass on quite a few occasions, Another one close to the end when Roberts took the tackle, I think the problem is that they don't expect anyone to be there.
.

Having seen the last try back again I think brough did the right thing at the end. There was brough with brierley close to him - there were also three wakey players- including one who had kept up with brierley for pace, surrounding them. Jerry was in acres of space so smart decision.
Last week we were offloading in traffic and it messed up!

Pretty much agree, Wakey got the calls first half, Broughy had a couple of moans, including walking off at HT, second half we got the 50/50s. Whether his calls were right or wrong he appeared to be easily influenced.

Problem is under Jon Sharp and now Hanson refs keep quitting so we have lots of inexperienced refs controlled by a former ref with a track record of controversy. To top it all play Catalans away and you get Alibert as VR

yeh i agree seeing back on replay, thought at the time give it brierley but brough was spot on!

as for the one wakey scored with jones bishop when he went full length of the field it looks like ferguson got in the way of brierley for the tackle

signed for bradford

sam wood not available for first time try scorer, should all get a refund!

Wouldn't get in in front of Lee Smith!! haha from what I have seen with your best yet to come fancy you for top 8 still think a lot will depend on keeping Seb fit with Mamo to come in which will hopefully see Gaskell at 6 decent spine to move forward there, especially with improvements in Leemings game! Seems signing O'Brien from us has given him the kick up the backside he needed to push on
