I think Jamie is looking little of his game at the moment.

To much hands and no shoulders in defence and little dodgy under high balls.

I know what you are saying, but should it wait until somebody gets hurt before that sort of thing gets looked at ?

You are probably right though that it is relatively minor, but it just left a sour taste in the mouth.

He got a warning off the ref, tbh it's not a common occurrence and it's just a house trick, expect nothing less from the current Goon team

Thought there were a couple of instances were saints players being tackled in the air.
Can recall us doing it once and the ref pinging us for it.

Foster got tackled in the air, was brought up on sky but ignored by the officials.

What about charnley's double movement for his non-try?

In slo-mo you can see he digs his feet in the turf and then thrusts with his legs in order to flip himself over the line. How it wasn't given as a pen I don't know.
Meanwhile on the cherry and s*hite they are still convinced it was a try.

That would make them wrong - a quick glance at the papers proves that.

Thepush was something of nothing not worth talking about. The none try was just that. Mind you the ref was on a mission at one point to keep wigan in the game. so I was thankful he sent it up stairs. To be honest it was the wrong call should have been a penalty but these thing go for you sometimes other times not.

I see on the replay madge was shouting profusly for wellens to be sent off for holding down. Does this mean he has seen the light and wanta quick play the balls.

Mind you he's a fair bloke I'msure Madge was also shouting off offf offf when coley took makinsons head off and when foster was tackled in the air and when lomax was tackled in the air after all madge will conceed that these are far more dangerous than holding onto rat boys leg.

FWIW there was not much in the push but Leului (sp) tackle late on Gaskell was far worse

not correct, the ball had already hit the ground and bounced, it wasnt the same as a 'bomb'.

and as for the Wigan niggle, Sia's elbow should have got MOM, the amount of work it got through

Funniest post of the year. Well done.

He does try. His own location description sums him up very well

Funny how many can only tend to see one side ever do wrong? if you watch the match again if you were open minded it was half a dozen of one side and then the other, small niggles it is rugby not Netball!

Nobody pick up on graham rolling onto O'Loughlin (moving off the mark) then kneeling on his head to stand up on the Wigan line?

Thought not.

Nope, nobody picked up on that, not the referee, the assistant and neither did the disciplinary panel.

Fook me a Gooner complaining about a tackled player moving off the mark

Maybe nobody cares? Even if it did happen which I doubt it wouldn't make up for all the head high tackles sideshow bob has managed over the last few years

Nothing in it, as far as I'm concerned. It's one of those things that happens on a rugby field. As for some of the other minor infringements that people have pointed out - as what stage do we stopped being surprised that officials miss some things and get some calls wrong?

Poor form, but nothing to get excited about.

To be fair the oy one getting excited was madge shouting for players to be sent off. Never seen a coach so desperate to get a player off.

Murph's right though. How he stayed on is beyond me. Red all the way.

frowned upon to send someone off in a final, thats how Graham kept on the field at OT last year too
