Had a shocking game last nite, he let cas hold the game up as much as he could, there where times when cas players where holding the player up so we couldnt play the ball. How he came up with forward pass for wigans first i dunno,cas double movement try i dunno hard to call, but for the knock ons on the kicks to the corners they were the most shocking decisions iv seen in a while

We were rightly penalised for our offences but he seemed to let Cas have a "longer rope" in terms of them doing the same.

Ganson had a good game in my opinion.

What about that knock on in first half on their line and he gave a drop out?

Didnt think he did that bad really (as he normally poor in my opinion)

He did have a few shockers though, how he didnt see the kick to the corner knock on ill never know.

The first try forward, was no were near as forward as hulls, but shock horror they spot it!

What am i talking about on reflection he was poor, but not the reason we lost! Just have to look at the boys in cherry and white for that

That was just woeful, but there were 2 other officials within 10 metres of it and they never advised the ref. Shocking amateurish stuff.

That was ridiculous, but the touchie was right on that call and he never said 'owt!

On a serious note, what do the linesmen actually do? eff all in my opinion!
Some spotty pale legged virgin runnin up and down the line with a flag not watchin the game just cant be right!

Exactly.

When he gave forward pass for ainscoughs 'try' some girl behind me shouted 'you cant go to the touchjudge for a forward pass'

wigan fans moaning about other teams slowing the game down


it's noballs' speciality.

I try not to comment on referees performances too much.

they make mistakes always have and always will.

In reality in 99% of games the best team wins irrespective of decisions.

Fans naturally hit out at officials when things don't go their way but the problem usually lies closer to home.

I would not blame the defeat on Ganson the players and the coaching staff need to have a serious look at themselves

exactly my point the useless touch judge waved knock on then pointed to the sticks for a drop out as soon as gonson did

Ganson didn't have the best of games to be honest, But Like you have said Usually the best team wins. Ganson didn't miss the tackles or drop the balls last night, Tim Smith couldn't tackle me, the try Ferres scored when he held off him and another for about ten metres, was totally woeful defending.

i dont think they did all that bad the reason we lost is we didnt have a goal kicker in my opinion

He is actually a Touch Judge mate, there have never been any linesmen in Rugby League!

Oh and if you spent as much time watching the game as you seem to do 'admiring' the Touch Judges legs and complexion you might learn a bit about the game and not sound such a knob when you post on here.

Pugwash.

Ganson last night looked like a tic tac

What is the rule when you drop or knock the ball on in your in goal or on your try line?

The thing which bored my about Ganson, is his interpretation of the offside rule. We looked to be stand at least 12yrds yet Cas players especially 14 where standing in front of Ganson moving before the play the ball and making the tackle, no foul. What is all that about, I swear Hock got the ball at one point and the guy was 5 yrds away????? And there try in the the right hand corner in the 2nd half the lad who scored it, was a good 5 yrds off side, the Linesman had a clear view and did sweet FA. The officals where, are and always will be a joke.

But saying that not matter how bad the team of officals where we should have batter Cas last night we are proper crap.

have a look at owens disallowed try, the number of high tackles by wigan players that went unpenalised. wether you like or not wigan were beaten by the better team on the night

Are well nearly 24 hours before the ref was to blame. The bonus is you only get him twice more this season!!

Wait until you get one of these second rate refs like Quins had a Cas last week. He couldn't keep up with play.

The knock on was the worst refereeing decision i have ever seen. It wasn't a little fumble, he was stood up and dropped the ball it hit the floor bounced up and caught it again! Unbelievable! The touch judge was at fault more than Ganson!

If you drop the ball and it goes forward then you regain possession that is a Goal Line Drop Out. Should the ball not be gathered and is touched down by an opponent then it is a try. If you drop the ball and it travels toward your own dead ball line then it may be picked up and play will carry on. The ball is deemed to be In Goal if it is on or behind the Goal Line, or the player carrying the ball has at least one foot on or behind the Goal Line.

I'm not being pedantic about the 'Try Line' but you often hear Eddie and Stevo amongst others referring to a Try Line but it simply doesn't exist and never has!

Pugwash.
