Not sure if any of you picked up on this - but I was writing about it on another forum and took some screen shots so thought I would pass them onto Tiger fans to have a look. I don't barrack for either team, though I love watching the Tigers play - so I am completed unbiased in the incident.

I just thought if Humble stayed down it would have been a sure penalty, definite on report for Barba and possibly a sin-bin but short of a penalty try. The line Barba held was only to smash Humble. It's sad that players have to stay down for this to get noticed…

Can't upload images here so I will see if I can link to them.. not sure if this will work.. oh, won't work for public viewing. If anyone wants the images who can post them here just let me know.
 
I didn't think there was too much wrong with the incident. Barba wasn't too far away from the ball from where I was sitting. Maybe a penalty at best but even that would be pushing it.
 
I remember it too - was quickly brushed over by Gus at the time as they were verbally fellating Barba at the time.

Two moments in the game which changed it to the doggies favour - and both involved Barba.

Barba knocking on a bomb into Beau Ryan in the 70th minute was also another howler of a ref call.

I'd consider our lads unlucky not to win on Friday.
