All presumptions that he was blind were confirmed when he waved play on after Briscoe's knock on from that bomb in the first half!

I thought he didn't have too bad a game today! Nice low penalty count, errors in single figures (which is impressive by SL ref's standards...).



Dobbo should have got 10 minutes for the "professional" foul on Tomkins just before half-time, though.

i thought he 'ok' but the big momentum shift in the second half was 5hite. everyone new he was tackled and should have played the ball yet was allowed to make another 15 metres to the line, wouldnt alter the result althought the scoreline was harsh on us in the end.

Do you mean the one that completely missed Briscoes hands and hit his knees before he grabbed the ball back

Thought he touched it first but thought the ref tried to let the game flow he did ok for me, which makes a welcome change.

I'd like to see that again on TV TBH, I think we were hanging in there until that point. However Wigan were superb yesterday, Tomkins tore us apart.

A high tackle isn't a professional foul and it wasn't even a high tackle. Jurgen Tomkins made out he was shot

Ha ha ha ... The blame the ref (when we were coprehensively beaten, and only played for 10 mins in the second half )thread

Please feel free to quote anyone blaming Thaler.

Thought Thaler go pretty much every decison right, including the Briscoe and Joel Tompkins ones.

Other than saying he was blind??
