Quote westgaterunner="westgaterunner"I agree with Trojan. Ollie Pratt oozes confidence and backs himself against whoever he plays against, and looks to have a very exciting career ahead of him, a probable England cap for the future ( along With Doyle )
[uWatching his disallowed try on the big screen looked harsh[/u. Ollie and Matt Russell caused trouble down there left side all throughout the match. Mason Lino played well and only seemed to get sin binned by the southstand. Caleb Uele put in some big hits, but on the whole a very good team performance. Daryl Powell inspired another great result against one of his old clubs.'"
I agree, that the gap Pratt ran down was huge. It was a 50/50 call at best that it was an obstruction, the Leeds player just seemed to run into him when he saw Pratt break for the line IMO, it wouldn't have made any difference if the Trinity player hadn't been there. That Leeds' defensive line was all over the place, and the Red Sea opened up for Pratt to run straight down to the line—nothing to do with an obstruction.
I also don't think Leeds scored their first try, nor did Powell. It went up as a no try and I don't think he got any downward pressure on the ball, Newman's hands seemed to be on either side of it when he dived, and then the ball bounced up and hit his shoulder. The TV picture was crap as well in slow-mo to rule an on-field no-try. The TV ref was very quick to change the on-field call as if he watched a video that showed undeniable proof and it was far from it from what i could see.
