incompetent and useless
By The Mighty Quin | April 26, 2008
No not the Quins RL players but the referee and his assistants who completely cocked up a number of decissions that really affected the game tonight, if we are going to pay out huge wages for full time pro refs then they need to act like it on (and off) the pitch.
Our merry band managed to miss a knock on by Ryan Atkins for the first Wakefield try that you could see from the back of the stands, that was followed trys ruled out for a supposed obstruction that should have gone to the video ref, the Wakefield players had stopped playing and weren’t within spitting distance of getting hold of Chad Randell, and a forward pass that that was another figment of Mr Gansons imagination. Add to that the punch by Bibey that should have seen the red card rather than on report that it got and Howells treatment when he was committed to a charge down id farcical.
I can take getting beat by a better side, a more enthusiastic side but when key moments are blatantly missed by the men in the middle it is hard to swallow.

stan and olly turn up once again
By The Mighty Quin | April 22, 2008
Yep Rugby Leagues very own Oliver and Hardy make another TV appearance in our game on Saturday, Steve Ganson will be the bloke in the middle and Ashley Klein the over worked
video ref.
We won’t remind readers of all the screw ups this pair have made but lets just say neither could spot and offside of their lives depended on it, lets just hope they don’t make another fine mess…
Maybe now is the chance to push our new T-Shirt available in our store, inspired by the Loyal and Loud’s verdict of Mr Silverwood’s performance on Saturday…

henry draws his pension…
By The Mighty Quin | April 22, 2008
News has filtered thru from more than one source that Henry Paul (right) is about to pen a deal with newly relegated Union side Leeds Carnegie. The 34 year old backrow is in his last year with us and is currently in great form and has been hinting that he may have a re-think about his retirement plans at the end of the season. Looks like the old boy has decided to go ahead and retire as it is not as if he’ll see much strenuous action in the second tier of English RU.
Henry will be missed at Quins RL but if the news is true we wish Henry all the best for the future and thank him for a couple of seasons hard work.
The hunt starts now for a player of the same stature who can help the current crop of youngsters break through into the big time.
The story has now been confirmed by both The Yorkshire Post and BBC’s Look North

No Hill but Wagga in
By The Mighty Quin | April 18, 2008
Scott Hill still not fit to play this is the squad for our first Challenge Cup game of the season -
Barker, Clubb, Gafa, Grayshon, Haggerty, Howell, Mbu, Melling, Orr, Paul, Purdham, Randall, Rinaldi, Sharp, Sheriffe, Temata, Ward, Wells, Worrincy.
Good to see Danny Orr return against his old club, teaming up with Paul and Purdham should see Harlequins being too strong for Castleford but it won’t be an easy game, expect Cas to be quick out of the blocks and get points on the board quickly as this seems to be our weak point this season.
