Didnt watch it last night so having just watched the replay under self control knowing we won I can definitely confirm that Ashley Klown and his bunker clown is a dead set cheat. The absolute one sided garbage that he dished up trying to get the purple scum home from the get go was an absolute disgrace. The constant laying all over us, the constant head shots , the constant offsides, the repeated forward passes that this k*nt continued to turn a blind eye to was beyond compare. Flabberghasted

I was just like you @mickqld I watched the match after a wedding..so 2am.. and knew the result, I honestly couldn't believe what the Storm were getting away with and the constant piggybacks by the ref's.. at one point with 4 mins to go they are given a penalty deep in their red zone for nothing at all.. Gordie gets up asking the question.. the commentary don't even know but they say "a flop, hand on the ball, take your pick" WTF.. seriously they get down on our tryline from that penalty and we spend the next 3 minutes defending it..

Yeah agree, Klein generally refed pretty well but at critical times gave them massive leg ups, but on watching again for the third time DCE almost gave them the game, with a few minutes to go he gave away a few 6 agains and could have ended up in the bin and a penalty against us.

The try they scored at the end of the first half was from a BS penalty.

The Hughes try was the result of 2 forward passes (Hughes to Wishart & Wishart back to Hughes).
