Make that 2 Giants fans. Couldn't see anything wrong with it.

| FWIW i thought that the try should have been given. However you cannot blame the ref bentham looked like he wanted to give it it was the in goal judge who did not give it.
Sometimes the problem is not so much the ref but the TJs they only come on now for foul play they rarely signal anything else. It is too hard now with the pace and the professionalism for one ref to do everything. The TJs need to be more proactive.i

| I would like to ask the bald prick in charge a few questions:
- Why wasn't the clear Roberts try awarded?
- Why was a goal line drop-out awarded, after Richards had grounded the ball in the field of play only to be rolled back behind the line (from which Hudds then scored their 1st try)?
- Why wasn't Luke Robinson sin-binned for the most obvious professional foul in history?
- Why did he consistantly take us back 12 yards instead of 10?
- I haven't seen the replay of Hudds 2nd try - which won them the game - but it looked like an obvious knock on before they "scored".
- Far too many blatant forward passes and knock-ons to mention (from both sides I may add).
A message to Stuart Cummings - How long do we have to put up with this crap refereeing? And this isn't sour grapes, it happens to all teams at some stage during the season

It'll never happen in a million years but how much trouble can it be to have a camera in the main stand one behind each post, and then the ref to be linked up to some kind of video referee.

the roberts 'knock on' as well where the giants player popped the ball out whilst lying on the floor.
The web footed six fingered gozzy eyed leyther touch judge should also get a special mention - maybe the hatred has rubbed off from his pathetic excuse of a rugby playing brother!

| I seldom, if ever moan about refs... But... Problem was, there was that much messing at the PTB by Hudds, credit to them for getting away with it, that the mupit did not seem to bother with the 10 yds/mtrs for either side... WHAT DO THE LINESMEN DO!!!!!!!!!!!

The Bentham and Turley comedy duo were horrendous at the Leigh friendly if you recall also.
Bentham never had control of the game, and you could tell there was a brawl brewing. How a referee can get so many crucial and significant decisions is beyond me. You can take missing a couple of knock-ons / mistakes.
What gets me is that he was fairly whistle-happy tonight but STILL missed some very obvious decisions, be it off his own back or with the "help" of his assistants. Roberts Try, Robinson on O'Loughlin, Richards having been tackled in play then pushed back over the ingoal line him awarding a drop out, the Hudds try where we knocked on, they knocked on, then they scored and he just sprinted over and gave it.
All those decisions had affected the score. At a time when the score was 8-10 he really started to go down hill.

| Quote ="thepriestman85"We were inept and had a hell of a lot of faults with our coaching and generall game but should this let the ref off what was a truly diabolical display?
Honestly I’ve never been so mad at a ref! Truly shocking performance in every single aspect of the game.
It’s far from sour grapes believe me but that guy cost us big time tonight. Two tries cancelled out and a lot of dubious decisions which made life a lot lot harder that what it needed to be.
Btw 400 fans my@r$e! 150 Hudds fans tops were there tonight show’s how pathetic your support is when we don’t even open the away stand. As one Wigan fan behind me said ‘I’d be ashamed to bring that many fans’
Really hope Hudds get passed over on a franchise'"
Bet you do, as least that will be 2 drubbings you can rule out each season, in fact, why not rule out a few more franchises then you can get back to winning on a regular basis again.
Just get over the fact that everyone is now full time (14 years now) and you don't have the god given right to beat everyone anymore.
Lets look at the development of the British game here, I reckon you had 8 overseas players tonight and we had 4, who's helping to develop our game the most?
Superleague is as exciting as it's ever been when you can go into most games not knowing who's going to win. I mean look at you last week, you won at Salford!!

I think you will find that we dont think we have or ever had a god given right to win anything. We took our opportunity to move forward at a time when everyone else didnt. It wasnt our fault your chairman lost his balls and didnt turn full time, we didnt create a rule saying no-one else could!
And for the second bit in bold, i agree with half your statement, you dont know who is going to win each weekend, and that is good. But the first half is laughable. The standard is terrible, huds last night did nothing more than 5 drives and a kick, and lie on in defence.
Granted that was enough to win the game, i wont go into how poor we where.
And as for development of the game, are you serious. I counted 3 ex wigan juniors in your side, and the list of internationals you have produced in the last 24 years just rolls of the tounge!
PS And yes i am aware we shouldnt have got rid of sone of them, but when you sell stories to the press about a fellow club man, you have to go!

Thank which ever god you pray too for that, i had assumed that you had bought into the RFL's notion that everything is rosey, and other fans views of anyone but Wigan.
