Yes suprise, suprise, Childs gives Huddersfield a run of penalties once the game is over having previously given every 50/50 (and even some 75/25's in Huddersfields favour) Warringtons way, and given at least two penalties (and a yellow card) AFTER warrington players stay on the floor to stop play having originally given no incident. You would have won regardless, but even by Childs standards this was an amazingly bias performance, that was helped out by his touch judge and in goals judges. The McGillvary incident when he kept the ball in play for example and was adjudged not to was definitely wrong. As a fan sat more or less in line with it he clearly jumped from the field of play.
I was at the game and both the incidents where, 1st Ratchford was head tackled on our line and secondly where Hill was hit in the face with the forearm, (which resulted in him leaving the field) were not given by Childs, he wasn't going to give us a penalty, the in goal official gave Childs the instruction to penalise on both occassions.
As for the tochline incidents, the ball had crossed the line, we being head on to the touchline, the ball doesn't have to bounce over the touch lines.
Huddersfields 1st try appeared to put his foot on the touch line, but the try was given.
It's funny but we all thought Childs was trying to win the game for you, I don't thing I have seen so many obstructions let go with no penalty.
