It was harsh at the time, now with retrospect it was ridiculously unjust.

Does this mean teams are learning or that refs are just not arrised after just a month? I asked elsewhere, wasn't there meant to be a crackdown on the rucks, because Saints, Wigan and Cats are still slowing teams down awfully with no repercussions.

I was saying this to someone y’day. That Leeds/Saints game was so different in the 2nd half with Saints laying on that long I thought they had fallen asleep. I knew Leeds needed to have scored more points in the 1st half because I knew the way it would be played when they came back out.

The best way to make the RFL deal with this borefest of lying on by certain clubs (We all know who they are), is for the other clubs to imitate this tactic, so that the product is unwatchable and SKY complain that the games aren`t providing the required level of entertainment to their viewing audience.

Better still when we play Saints and beat them.

Saints getting beaten, is never your fault.
