The pass did look a touch forward, but that happens every week and the fans of every team other than the one it's happened to say, "It happens - get over it."

Indiscipline and a classic case of the chokes cost Hull FC that game, together will Will Sharp allowing David Hodgson to stroll round him for the best try of the day, just pipping Tim Smith's silky skills in the Wakey v Cas game.

Cracking game - well done Hull KR.

FFS, did you actually watch the game?

Ok, I will make it easy for you.

Had Tony Martin not knackered his ankle ligaments contesting the kick off, hull kr MAY not have got possession. Benefit of doubt to rovers.

Had both referee and TJ done the right thing and called a forward pass it would have been a Hull scrum. Time would have wound down by another minute then there is the set Hull would have had. The stats suggest Hulls completion rate was high, so it's not unreasonable to think, the sets ends with a Long kick down field and then there is less than five minutes left.

I appreciate you will have difficulty replying due to the lube on your hands at this point.

I hope your tongue was firmly in cheek when you say, a touch forward.

And unless you have guessed, yes, I am a "touch" miffed

Ganson looked to his touch judge for guidance on the "forward pass" and was not told it was forward. The ref cannot be in two places at once and it's about time these useless touch judges grew some nadgers and started earning their corn. As for the Hull fc fans moaning he cost them the game, grow up you're starting to sound like Bradford fans. You threw it away and you've only got the hull players to blame.

Well lets hope for your sake that the Bulls don't put one over you. If they do, stand by for a lot of posts from East Yorkshire.

Shock horror..a try awarded from a forward pass. Steve ganson is the best referee in super league and david hodgson is the slowest winger in super league...

I'm just glad that the game wasn't spoiled by any controversial refereeing decisions...Apart from sin binning Dobbo, that was a shocker.

Still, the best team won and you can't say fairer than that.

I thought Ganson had a decent game. He (& the TJ's) got a couple of things wrong like the forward pass decision and the play-on decision when Houghton knocked on near his own line and not penalising Hull for delaying play from the drop-out. Other than that I thought he got most stuff right.

For Hull fans to blame the loss on Ganson is just daft.

Dobson sin binning was very harsh and there was a terrible call to award a drop out before Hull's 4th try now dry your eyes.
Hull thought they'd won (shown by that idiot who ran on the pitch) and this reflected in the team. They hadn't and we never gave up.
Get a grip Mild Mannered Janitor, you're embarrassing yourself.

Leeds' game vs Bradford was different in that it was the last play of the game - although it would be fair to point out that Ganson much earlier failing to send off Terry Newton (who subsequently received a 3 match ban) was more influential than the more famed error.

In this circumstance it wasn't even the winning try - to blame Ganson alone for your defeat is delusional. Yes finding a way to win involves riding your luck - but it also involves having the mental fortitude to ride out the tough calls. It certainly [idoesn't[/i involve collapsing just because one decision goes against you.

You need to get a rule book son.

Dobson was a professional foul and a sin binning offence and the drop out (although a strange rule) was the correct decision.

Agree with the rest of your post though, disappointed with Hull in the last few minutes poor discipline and concentration cost us, although ganson certainly did us no favours.

Im i the only rovers fan who thought hull was robbed?

I doubt it, but brave of you to say so.

As I said on the Rovers board though, not your fault, you have to play with what you are given and fair play to Rovers for never giving up.

Although still disappointed this morning, there are loads of positive at the Hull club at the moment,

Very disappointed with how we stopped concentrating after the Turner try. Immediately losing the ball from kick off and conceding a try, although we were incredibly unlucky with Martin getting injured and Ganson not stopping the game, leaving us a man short. All went down hill from there.

The forward pass was shocking. He was being tackled, so momentum couldn't even come into play. No question about it, it should have been pulled, it was that clear.

The last try was pathetic defence. In fact there were a number of tries that we're touch and pass like.

Personally, after the early sin binning of Dobson (correct call), it felt like Ganson was on a mission to even things up. The penalty count was completely one-sided and the only ones we seemed to get we're for high tackles (from Dobson on more than one occasion). I couldn't believe we got pinged for offside so much and Rovers not even once in the second half. Was that because we were winning or what?

Would we have won had Ganson spotted the forward pass? Without a doubt. There wouldn't have been time for Rovers. But he didn't, and we can't use his poor performance as an excuse, only a reason. The biggest reason we lost was complacency.

Consolation? If Leeds lose, they're ninth! If they draw, Rovers are back out the top eight so yesterday means nothing for now! Basically my enjoyment of this weekend rides on a Bradford win!

No, the mate I went with said the same.

I really thought Hull FC were robbed, no question the second to last try was off a forward pass. However Hull KR got themselves into a great attacking position and got to give them some credit for that. All in all, I thought it was a cracking derby.

Right, there's the link. Go ahead and ask for a ref's job, and let me know how you get on.

Well said , nail on the head !!

We all know the forward pass was a terrible call by Ganson but it didn't win the game.
If Hodgson had faced any kind of defence he wouldn't have scored.

I can't stand these type of comments. I suppose you've only ever passed judgement on the performance of people who do exactly the same job as you? No, thought not, that would be ridiculous. Everyone is entitled to an opinion on the performance of referees regardless of whether they themselves are a referee. It was a contentious decision (to put it lightly) and people ARE going to talk about it.

The Hodgson score should have been a consolation try only.

The forward pass try could have been the consolation if Hull could tackle Hodgson 60 metres out.

It wasn't Get over it.

they guy who did our game, George Stokes, was excellent, kept the game flowing and kept his whistle in his pocket. He should get more appointments.
