not arguing that point sanjuin! just saying there is a call in the game for vr at every game in sl, the comp is skewed at the mo where some games have the benefit of VR (if you see it that way) others dont.

In all games with VR the refs tend to leave the call to them more times than they should, why? because if they make the decision and then its later shown to be wrong then they get it in the neck for that.

VR have a protocol and a tick sheet that has to be followed, the final one being to ask the tv producers have they any other angles. The decision should always be skewed to awarding the try not disallowing, but if there is an offence etc then it cannot be awarded.

Simple solution for dracs! stop showing every game live, then ref will have to make his own decision with advice from tj and ig

was interesting yesterday, ref actually made his own decision on a call and actually if you saw the replay a try should have been awarded! simultanious grounding of the ball is a try! Glad they didnt go to VR as would have been more points to saints!

In my view refs should not be going to vr on every try and should rely on there own view of things, sadly i think game is going direction where all tries may go to VR

Just seen super league full time! Dont care what Kear says, it was the right decision! No try clear obstruction! he took out 2 defenders and the ball went behind him, Robinson want to give up whining

Just got back from France. An enjoyable game and competitive, but more like a championship performance from each side rather than Superleague, both sides with a lot of people out injured.



Main thoughts:

Bronocs had the best defence and best attack but made more mistakes.

Commited performance for the full 80, even though it was around 28C for the whole match.

If more varied and interesting attacks means more mistakes I think we ought to carry on with the tactic, at least we will lose in style, capitulations have been the worst feeling for me this season (can see TR's hand in the style of play already).

Refereeing decisions numerous and strange and probably did favour Broncos in key 50-50s, though the penalty count was 5-11 against us mainly rightly for offside.

Spoke to Dan Sarginson, off 4-6 weeks with damaged leg ligaments but seemed in good spirits.

Perhaps I should retire to France

definitely - it's fantastic mate !

me just back today from france, we did play well, real improvement and plenty to work on, we seem more relaxed and able to react , cats seemed to rate us

better wine down here though....

errmm, where did the grapes originate ?





ie : Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Syrah, Merlot, Gamay et al.

Central Otago Pinot Noir is the mutts nutts....probably because Kiwis look after the grapes better than the lazy french,,,,,

i'll have you know they are only 'lazy' during the week...



...weekends is another matter....





anyway, nothing can top a decent Gaillac from anywhere within a 10 mile radius of Cahuzac - bloomin' bootiful !

France rule the world in white flag factory output......

and not a lot else
