    4Nations | New Zealand v England | Forsyth Barr Stadium | Sat 8th Nov (8pm)

    Are they serious about these referees? Embarrassing. I'm speechless. Do the Aussies who thought it ok last week still see it as ok this week? What a mess. I love League, why are these idiots trying to destroy its credibility?

    4nations | Australia v England | aami park | sun 2nd nov

    I know it was the video ref. Decisions like these just make the case for a full set of neutral officials all the stronger. My wife doesn't follow League, after a brief explanation of what went on her response was "How did they let an Australian make the decision?" I am pretty sure that's what...

    4nations | Australia v England | aami park | sun 2nd nov

    Exactly those decisions do happen, because it was a try!!! As I said before, neutral refs please. They may not be "as good" as other refs but surely better to be poor for both teams and not leaving a whiff of favouritism. Would have been hugely interesting if the decision had to be made at...

    4nations | Australia v England | aami park | sun 2nd nov

    Why wasn't it a try? Explain. It is irrelevant whether a player celebrates, isn't it? Don't want to sound like sour grapes, feels like England blew it. I know Aus played much better 2nd half, but England went into their shells. Decision would have been just a bit easier to take from a...

    Five Nations: Samoa must stay

    Agree 100% to 5 Nations. Australia New Zealand Samoa PNG Fiji With Aussie video ref....may as well make it the 1 nation!!!!!! Australia played well second half, fair play, but tough to take. Cameron Smith on BBC "...ruling for 20m restart was a relief...must admit looked pretty close on the...

    Five Nations: Samoa must stay

    How can we afford to let this Samoan team go? Best thing to happen in international RL for years. I know it's unlikely, but wouldn't five nations be awesome? I want to watch Samoa every week!!!!

    '13 WC | Semi Final | New Zealand 20-18 England | Wembley

    Just back from Wembley. What a game! F**kin'gutted. Awful last 90 seconds for England. Said at time we may be punished for Sinfield's goal miss. I mean, hell, he kicks those for fun week in week out. Not picking out one player. They win and lose together. Great, great advert for Rugby League...

    The Pool Stages are over.

    Hell, I'll be fed up when this World Cup is over. I've only made NZ v PNG, but looking forward to Wembley double header and seen all the rest on tv. Bar a very few, the group games have been brilliant. You may not think the format is perfect, but I think it has made for such a competitive set of...

    '13 WC | Group B | France 6-22 Samoa | Perpignan

    The ref was a shocker: almost lost it all by taking no decisive action for some awful "tackles".

    '13 WC | Group B | France 6-22 Samoa | Perpignan

    We should start a book on how many Samoa will have to pick from for the quarter-final.

    '13 WC | Group B | France 6-22 Samoa | Perpignan

    Forgive me, I thought a trip was a sending off offence? Am I the only one who thinks on-report is becoming a bit of a cop-out? What is the record for the number of on report for one match?

    Crusaders Leave SuperLeague

    Been announced this morning on BBC. Crusaders have withdrawn their bid for a renewed franchise for 2012-2015. Uncertain if they will continue in Co-operative Championship as yet. Def unexpected and a blow to expansion. Good news for Wakefield though. See...

    The officiating in the australia vs England match.

    Fairly comprehsive from Clan. So many errors I'd forgotten about the tap and kick penalty and Graham's telling off. Can't believe there are complaints from Australia re. refereeing decisions. What a joke! Hell, if he gets angry about treatment his lot got he'd be in orbit if he'd been...

    Neutral refereeing

    Surely, someone would have thought that if we had to have an Australian ref on the field that there may be some balance in the video refereeing. It gets worse. Some of his decisions were just as questionable as Archer's.

    Neutral refereeing

    I was going to start this post at half-time but thought better of it, However, that first aussie try of second half: a mile forward! I would question a few decisions in first half. The thing is, it just leaves the game open to questions about integrity and that can't be good for the game.
