what a joke i m trying to not swear ahhhh even tho i cant on hear he s been trying all game to do his worst what a c@ck

He obviously simply didn't hear the hooter. Shocking decision.

Agreed, Complete Shambles !!!

Was shocking tonight. Absolutely shocking.

He was awful, but we had oppurtunities to win the game which we didn't take. We cannot simply blame Silverwood. Even if he is a blind .

The ref didn't lose the game, the players did.

Correct.

The game ends on the referees whistle , not the hooter.

The referee got it wrong, but the players should have made the next tackle.

Harsh, but true.

Incorrect.

If the referee had blown the whistle like he should have, the players wouldn't have been in the position to 'lose the game'.

watching the rugby on sky now "fact wigan was robbed by the ref not hearing the hooter "

What about the Dobson no-try in the 1st half when Roberts chased him down, looked perfectly legitimate on the 3 or 4 replays I saw at half time.
I suggest we look in house for reasons why we lost tonight before blaming Silverwood.

silverwood was poor to say the least and that dobson try on half time was an embarrassment, but we made plenty of dumb decisions at crucial times. back to the drawing board

Yes, but he didn't blow the whistle, therefore the players should have made the next tackle and not switched off.

It's the oldest call in sport: "play to the whistle". (Not the hooter)

edit: just to be clear, I agree the ref fecked up with regards to the hooter, but as he didn't blow up the players should have played on.
