Our friend Mr Childs appears to have been taken off at half time he needs to stick to the under twelve’s me thinks as he is obviously more apt at refereeing them, super league needs to look at themselves regards this lad.

why has he been replaced for fear of the fans intimidating him or has pulled up injured ?

i sorry to say mr child is not ready for super league yet, just cannot handle the games too pandantic , too many penalties given and no common sense to draw on yet, please put him back in division one to learn his trade better before giving him super league games sorry

appalling refereeing from childs,he must of broken a record for the number of penaltys he gave in the first half,the explanation for his non appearance in the second half was a injured ankle although i suspect he may of swallowed the pea from his whistle.

too pedantic actually .... like some on here

Allegedly came off with an ankle injury, personally I think he wanted to get home early to finish his homework.

On the plus side although he was very incompetant the referee that replaced him was very impressive considering it was his sl debut and looks like he might be a good one for the future.

Who was it?

Peter brooke.

OK, so if/when Bent-ham gives usual crap-tastic performance during the first half does that mean we can get shut of him at half time an' all?!?!

He's not even competent enough for his usual role as touch judge. Let's hope that the ankle injury is one of those niggly one's that mean's he'll have to give up running for extended periods of time
