I think it's similar to the NRL system

[quote="Trebor1":2arx5oil]A good friend of mine tells me his Dad overheard Whitfield saying in a pub how much he hated Leeds... the man was an outrageously bad referee.[/quote:2arx5oil] Nearly as bad as Robert Hicks. He kept his hatred to himself though.

hicks was pish poor for everybody...

Under these new rules we actually seem to be in the best position to start the year https://www.loverugbyleague.com/post/th ... om-hull-fc

[quote="tad rhino":hl66zthg]hicks was pish poor for everybody...[/quote:hl66zthg] Hicks had an agenda with Leeds, I’ve no doubt about that. Amongst many, many bad calls he made against Leeds two in particular stand out. I’m sure most people remember the day Micky Mcclorum tried decapitating Brad Dwyer for Catalans. He then picked up the groggy, bloodied Dwyer and dropped him down again. As the medics tried to stem the bleeding from Dwyers flattened nose and gashed lip, Chris Kendall sought advice from video ref Hicks. He deemed no offence had been committed for the initial head shot or subsequent lifting of an injured player. The judiciary, like everyone else on the planet, said different. Mcclorum was charged with the head shot and most serious grade F charge for lifting an injured player. He was subsequently banned for 6 games which ended his campaign and the start of the following season. It should also have ended Hicks career as a Superleague official. The 2nd well known bit of Hicksery was when he managed to yellow card Danny Mags as he was carried off after the “crocodile roll” tackle from Marc Sneyd who tried unscrewing Danny’s leg. The disciplinary obviously ignored Hicks, banned Sneyd and no charge against McGuire. Stopping short of apologising , Hicks blamed Danny Mags “previous petulance” for his bad read on the situation. You couldn’t make it up.

We should give McNamara and Peter Hood the 2 points back after Tansey-gate
