Which part do you find 'ridiculous'?

Ganson proved today what we all knew. That he is incompetent. He did it to us last year and he's done it to you today. Unfortunately his back will be covered by those in authority and he'll carry on making the same errors.
For what its worth, I thought you'd done enough to win today, but disregarding the TRY!!! at the end, we would have have been sharing the points.

Ganson has ALWAYS been a premadonna. Enough is enough. The rfl are muppets for putting him in charge of the refs. #sackganson.

Ganson is a tool of the highest order, but to say our sport is a laughing stock is a bit silly. I'm truly gutted with the result but that game was highly exciting and a credit to rugby league. Other than the last few games of the season football can only dream of the entertainment we experience. Rugby Union is barely worth a mention for comparison when looking at the entertainment today.
Hessle Rover, your insults to FC fans are worthy only of the HDM site. If I were them I would be taking full advantage at rubbing this right in. To their credit they have not been that bad...so far. I understand how they see this as parity for last year but agree this decision is far worse as it was with the VR who had several looks at it.
Our guys bust a gut today and to even come close with the team we are fielding is a credit to them and the coach.
Eden has been next to useless all season and would not have played if Welham was fit. To be fair up until that kick he had played very well.
It's funny how the last time Hull were that poor was also against us. Seems they reserve there worst performances for KR. Or could it be that KR did actually play very well against a stronger side/squad and forced errors?
Nothing more we can do so lets all have our moan and shout for our battered team again next week.
Our tactics today were spot on...who should get the credit for that I wonder??

2 poor errors on Gansons part. Yeamons try never was on 2 angles and the other angle was very indecisive to say the least. Then the offside try. Words fail me. After admiting hes made a mistake he should resign and do us all a favour.

Not sure if it has been said but why didn`t Thaler go back to the VR even when the try was allowed and ask him to review it again? Simples.
Thought 2 of Hull`s tries should not have been given.
Not only were you robbed of a point but you would have had a penalty on the half way line and 6 tackles to score.

Another complete dummy response from a Hull Fc fan, the difference between last year and this is that as most of us (obviously not including Hull Fc fans) know that you cant use technology to rule out a try from a forward pass, however, you most certainly can use it to judge the validity of a try from such things as offsides,grounding of the ball etc.
Unfortunately and despite the technology available Ganson completely gaffed today and made it the talking point of the game rather than the game itself.
When are the overpaid numpties at Rl headquarters

going to get a grip with the very poor standard of refereeing in this country, until they do the game will never be taken seriously by the media etc.

Dobson was going to have a crack at the kick at goal from the penalty Rovers should of got so maybe,maybe not.

Yeaman's was a cast iron certain try. More doubtful ones are given regularly by the VR

No it wasn't, it was 50/50 at best.

Give over. No try on 2 angles and the 3rd was indecisive. That was Gansons leveller for last season

I honestly don't know what the offside one was for

If you believe Yeamans try was cast iron then you really do have an eyesight problem, a general misunderstanding of the game or both!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After the game last year there was a "Steve Ganson Appeciation Society" thread on this board. During last years game Rovers scored when the game should have been stopped as a Hull player suffered a career ending injury, the penalty count was 6-0 to HKR in the second half and then we had THAT pass. Three factors that Mr Gansons ineptitude influenced. Well guess what boys, all the p*ss taking has come back to haunt you and the fact that it is Steve Ganson who you all are now vilifying makes it that much sweeter. I for one will milk this for all that is worth and no doubt when HKR next win a derby, the compliment will be returned.

What goes around....

He is clearly fishing and your taking the bait fella.
I was disappointed it was given as it looked short initially and as it did reach the line control was lost but the biggest clue for me was on Yeaman's face,he thought it was no try himself judging by his reaction.

there fixed it for ya ...

Did Jim fix it for you?

My thoughts exactly, when that pitiful statement from the RFL came out!!!!!! Exactly who was he supposed to be tracking, if not Greene? I saw Greene was off side when the incident happened, so felt safe in the knowledge that the try would be disallowed, then, Ganson; a professional referee tracks the wrong person? With all the replays? I'm sorry, if I can see it was off side in real time, then he should have no excuses with several replays!!!!!! The only two excuses I can possibly see for this are: A

) he was "under the influence" B) he is shaped like a banana.

Add this to the other significant gaffs he has made (both of the others coming at magic weekend too), this guy should now, be held accountable!!! He should be made to publicly explain his error! But no, he hides behind a statement from someone else! Pathetic and laughable! My God, No wonder Neil is becoming jaded about the game, I would be too, if I had to put up with this crap on a regular basis!

As for the forward pass of last year? Yes, we got the rub of the green, I will openly admit this, but if the Hull FC fans think that was as bad a decision as this! You need your heads banging! Either that, or your rosy specs taken off. You only have to view the VT to see the response from people! Another thing, I thought at the time that Yeaman's try was dodgy, but thought I was maybe being biased and was happy given it was a 50/50 call, but, then it seems many others share my view on the VT, so I viewed it again, and yes, that too was questionable.

And of course, lets not forget, (feigns shock) you didn't turn up again!!!!!! Glory be! FFS. Your attack was "crap" as you put it, not because you didn't want it, but because we pressured you. You were going to hammer us, apparently! Remember!

To sum up (about time; your all thinking, I know): Ganson should face the music on this and an apology should not be enough.

IIRC Green was stradling the halfway line and Lynch was just in your half.
Both were in front of the kicker.

Nice to see a well constructed reposte.... oh hang on... wrong thread....

Yes they where both in front of the lkicker.. so it does make you wonder what replay Ganson was watching..

I said at the time - those two are off side...

It was quick and witty. What more do you want pal.

When it went to the screen there was no nod to his team mates that he had grounded it ok and he didn't look convinced he had when the camera panned in on him.
That was my impression.

Yeamans try was dodgy but I've seen them given. If we'd lost on that try I would have been annoyed but accepted it. The last illegal try was obviouscto the thousands watching tv and many their stadium. Forward passes can and do get missed. There is absolutely no accepting how Ganson gave this offside try.

Last years forward pass didn't actually win the game, Hodgsons awesome try did. Gansons inability to understand the rules and actually see anything DID give Hull the win.

The RFL cannot leave him in charge of the refs after this shocking inability to actually watch a game of RL let alone judge on it.

Ganson has always been a premadonna but enough is enough. #sackganson

And its late...



I was just trying to point out how Your see something one way, and others see it another....

ie you saw..


but i saw



Quite obviously we both agree on "After admiting hes made a mistake he should resign and do us all a favour" ... but if he did what would be end up with? Some spotty oik who doesn't have the bottle to blow his whistle?
