Saw the Hicks try on Sky last night and you are right it was a great finish.

My only doubt at the time (from the West Stand

) was whether there had been any contact with the touch line. He grounded it exceptionally well in such a small space

What was the penalty count on Monday? I asked this on a separate thread but either no one knows or cares or I typed in invisible text! I could only remember one for us after about 60 minutes or so. If that was the case then Warrington clearly have improved on their average of 8 up to round 6 according to the fairplay index which funnily enough is the same as our average. I'm sure we missed some , it couldn't be just one , could it?

Stated clearly on Boots N All that the tackle was completed and that's why the penalty was awared for dragging into touch after held had been called

I was at the game as a neutral and the first half was the worst refereeing I have ever seen. Ganson was dire with the amount of forward passes/ knock ons he missed. You could see that the Hull players had become so demoralised by it that the tries by Warrington in the 2nd half were inevitable. Warrington had the same rub of the green against Castleford early on in the season IIRC.

Took my lady friend (Giants fan) to the game. Spent the entire match shaking her head asking how the hell Ganson gets away with it. In her words ' Never seen a ref so biased'.

Exactly, it was bad.

Not as bad as halibut was at dave whelan's place when we played you the other week

Wasn't far off.

Disagree. halibut was influenced by the crowd that night and penalised us left, right and centre whilst allowing wigan a great deal of latitude. Not sure what people's gripe is with ganson from sunday other than a couple of dodgy deisions. the game flowed better than any I've seen live this season

First time I have every posted on the subject concering a official, cant believe how much this guy love himself +what the hell do them lines men do ?

Ganson courts controversy, he's addicted to the attention and likes to go against the grain to attain it. IMO of course.

What a surprise you again, it wouldnt have been would it. I offered several of your fans the chance to watch the DVD of the game but they all declined. If he was playing to the crowd it would have been the other way round because your fans outsang us all night. You obviously don't know the difference between controlling the ruck and simply holding down.

I could say any number of positive things about your club and you'd still want an argument. Ganson missed loads of things and I have absolutely nothing to gain by saying it.

Nothing whatsoever going on Monday's performance

You've just reminded me of another wigan chant

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooo, Boooooooooooooooooooooooooo

They both had an effect on the games and a negative for us in both.

I'm not really sure what people's gripe with ganson is from Monday's game. Sure the tackle into touch by Yeaman could have gone the other way but he kept the sides apart, controlled the ruck reasonably well and let us get away with a forward pass for our 2nd try. Just looked like ganson playing his normal game to me and I never saw anything that I believe affected the end result

Each to their own, I am not looking for you to agree, IMO Ganson affected the game and we got the rough end of some of the calls. There was very little between the two sides.

What about the pathetic penalty against Moa straight after we'd just got our noses in front ?? then two more penalties to get them over the line and level up the game ?

What about the numerous occasions when he "missed" Wire knock-ons whilst never hesitating for a second to penalise ours ?

For me, we had two shocking referees over Easter, the first of which did all that he possibly could to get rovers over our line (and failed). The second of which probably never effected the result in the end because we would probably have run out of steam anyway but he certainly made sure that it went Wire's way. When they needed a little "leg-up" he was there for them.

I think you need to take off those black and white specs love

Love ???



Never had a pair and don't ever intend to get one !! HTH

Did it say on TV what his injury was? Did he trip over his man boobs?
