I don't get it either. I actually think the whole playing team should have an option...not a short list who the writer thinks.
It's almost as bad as Sky TV and pick one of 4.

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.

The ball does have to touch the ground, either in touch or dead ball before it is classed as out of play, I think you should know the rules before you start spouting on here. Also the penalties Childs gave to the Giants, 7 in the last 10 minutes were laughable, some not worth bothering about but he was only doing it to even up the penalty count when the game was won by Wire. Also the so called forearm, Childs seemed ok with it, and how can an in-goal judge report a forearm, the player has his back to him and he is 25 yards away.

true about the ball going out, it has to hit the floor.

a few incidents didnt go our way at crucial times, 12-6 and we were getting on top till that hill forearm rubbish..the rfl said there wasnt a forearm used

but because it was hill and the wire fans were behind the touch judge he made the call for a pen and a sin binning.


5 incidents the rfl looked at... all huddersfield players.... only 1 found to be a penalty .

Except hill wasn’t hit in the face by a forearm was he? Hill encouraged him to think that, took a nice free 15 minute substitute, and got a player incorrectly sent off- just at a time when giants were turning the screw- changed the game that decision-
and yet people were calling for Murphy to be banned for “cheating”. The irony.

It didn't change the course of the game. Giants were never going to win it. Bottom 4 team this season I'm afraid.

Is that right Nostradamus? .....considering wire only beat us by 12 points, and felt obligated to cheat to give themselves an upper hand it doesn’t bode well for wire then does it.

Well I've checked the Disciplinary findings and the actual truth is there were seven incidents involving Huddersfield players and the findings were as follows:

Four incidents were not penalised at the time and the board found in each incident that was correct and no sanction was required.

Two incidents, separate to the sin binning, were penalised at the time and in both cases the penalty was deemed correct and sufficient punishment.

In the case of the sin binning the board found after studying the incident, and I'll quote the board's findings to avoid any further confusion in Yorkshire, "Sin Bin sufficient" which suggests that the level of foul play deserved the sin binning bit no further penalty.

I do wonder what report you have been reading; the Huddersfield Examiner?
