Fairly sure in that case the player was lying prone in an area much too close to the 'active play', and thus deemed to be in danger of further accidental injury from the ball ending up in that general area.

Just so that we're absolutely clear on this - and you saying that not a single one of the Wigan scores had even a morsel of doubt over their eligibility? Every single play in the build up to a Wigan score was completely above board and had absolutely nothing that could have seen them ruled out?

Officials were bad both ways today, I counted three dubious Widnes tries and two dubious Wigan ones. Haven't seen the video so difficult to be certain on whether all or none should have been disallowed and it makes no difference now. Fact is Widnes won, and based on their effort deservedly so, we just need to accept its a bad day at the office from a coaching perspective and move on. If Wigan didnt get the rub of the green (and that's a big if) then I'm sure it will even out over the course of the season.

I've just seen the tries and Briscoe definitely knocks on in the lead up to one of their tries, and one looked dubious for obstruction, but meh - these things even up throughout the season.

Congratulations on being the only team Widnes will beat this season.

Hey thanks!!!!!! You planning on winning any playoff games?

Had today been televised



it would have been played over and over especially when my Pie supporting sisters come round

Oh indisputably. Fourth piece of silverware in four years for sure.

I had to laugh at the penalty Hicks gave you towards the end, that just about sums up what an absolute useless twonk he is. Inept....

Seen the tries on SKY. No problems with any for both sides.

well the head injury thing watch sky the wire vs leeds match you will see carvell down with head/neck injury while leeds attacking the line, ref did not stop play until the hand over. we were lucky leeds did not score but that is the sport we play. the refs tend to wait for break in play if the injured player is away from the action.
