We have played like that all season but only for 10 minuets at a time. On a serious note I was so pleased with the sides effort. only sad I could not make it (Thursdays are a stupid time to play a game) I saw the reaction on the faces of the crowd after Charnly went in, it made great TV & should be shown to the RFL as a lesson in why they must ensure the refs get every decision a right as possible. If we can see a knock on or strip on the screen then so can the video ref they must be empowered to over rule the on pitch ref. anyway a point droped well done lads.

How many plays are you suggesting the VR can go back? Are you suggesting the VR can intervene if not referred to by the ref?

I think the VR should only check what is being asked for by the match official, over the Cup weekend a decision was referred "upstairs" and Ben Thaler went through the whole run up to the try and not just checking the grounding. And yes, I think the VR ought to be able to intervene.

I think I agree. I must admit surprise at the Sarginson try. It looked to me from the outset that he lost control while sliding in, with the ball going from one hand to the next. It wasn't mentioned by anyone in the studio.

That really is grasping at straws. If the kick didn't find touch and he got involved it would be a Hull KR penalty, other than that nothing. The ref could make us re-kick it with him onside if he was feeling particularly anal but doubt you would ever see it

It's just something I noticed with it been a tight game and so close to the end. Didn't know the ruling. Anyways, make you re-take the kick and you lost your extra 10 seconds you scored in

I'm sure a Wigan player was stood in front of Matty Smith when he kicked for touch on that last penalty before they scored. What should the ruling be on something like that?

Josh Charnley was stood on the 30m line when Smith took the kick. The kick should have been retaken.with Charnley behind the kicker
