| Quote Sal Paradise="Sal Paradise"In 2005 they did not have the turgid wrestle as Wests showed - brought in primarily by Bellamy in 07 and used extensively in 08, no surprise McGuire was adept at its use!! - not unsurprisingly attendances started to fall as spectators were bored rigid with the product on offer - the introduction of two refs was a targeted attempt to speed up the ruck and the wrestle has thankfully given way to the silky skills that faster rucks provide. Punters want to watch the likes of Benji Marshall and Jonathan Thurston not a ruck that takes 10 seconds plus to clear.
I would much rather watch the pace of game of today's games than the stuff served up by Wigan where they had three men in every tackle and the PTB was pedestrian at best - cheating at worst.'"

And the above proves what exactly?
That good players are able to adapt to differing interpretations of the law - points scored doesn't equate to quality as we see every week in the SL. Higher skilled attacked is matched by higher skilled more athletic defense that doesn't have to rely on slowing the PTB down to a snails pace - simply concept even for you Jeff!!

| I thought we looked dangerous with the ball, we did make a lot errors by trying to force the pass a bit too much, but hopefully as the season goes on we'll cut the mistakes out. I would like to think our discipline will improve as the players get used to the new interpretations of some of the rules, and to be fair I think there has been a lot of penalties given in all the games this weekend and I think thats usually the case at this stage of the season. Our defending from kicks was very poor and needs some work, I thought oce we started to put pressure on the Bradford kicker the quality of their kicks deteriorated - we need to do this consistantly.
Overall it was a very patchy performance but we showed a lot of quality at times - Webb, Buderus, BJB and Ali all looked sharp and if we can sort one or two things out we'll go OK this season. Don't forget we've still go Peacock, McGuire, and Huraki to come back.

| Quote bigchris="bigchris" The The pass for the Lauititi try was a 50/50 call'" Which Lautiti try would that be then?
On the first couple of pages of the thread you have already mistakenly referred to Ganson awarding us a penalty rather than a scrum feed following the Briggs knock on.
If you want a sensible discussion a prerequisite would be an ability to properly recognize what actually happened during the game which is clearly beyond you. Why should we give any credence to your opinion as to what constitutes a knock on when you lack the ability to differentiate between try scorers, penalties and scrum feeds?
You're not looking for sensible discussion, you're looking to whine about the result.
