It appears that he has made some unfortunate comments on twitter re Ben Thaler

commenting on a high shot is hardly shocking!

Have you seen what Damien Blanch put? Craig Huby retweeted it too. https://twitter.com/#!/damienblanch2 "Thaler's eyes are painted on what a joke" and more Tweets after it about the performance

Coach Trent Robinson paid tribute to Leeds but expressed his disappointment at the performance of referee Ben Thaler.



"I need to have another look at it but I was frustrated," he said. "We didn't get much tonight.



"I thought Leeds were really dominant in the ruck but they pushed things too far a few times with no result from Ben."



Thaler's performance drew some stinging criticism on Twitter from Catalan players, with injured full-back Clint Greenshields, watching the match on television, posting: "Holy s*** thaler is retarded. F*** me!"



Robinson was caught unaware by the comments, but responded: "I don't think Ben is retarded."

They're all idiots. Has no-one told them everyone can read what they put out there, and even if they delete it, someone will have taken a picture of it to show off their stupidity. Fines on the way for these two.

Very childish

His account appears to have been removed unless it's just me that can't find it?

I don't think its something the RFL really look into, I listened to a radio show this week where players described the disciplinary system in very poor terms.

I didn't read these but I don't think Ben Thaler had a bad game last night. We weren't at our best, like against Wires and Saints, and Leeds was just too strong last night.



No regrets.









It appears I can load his tweets because Twitter is on overcapacity.

Another RL players in twitter shock. Sigh, will they ever learn??

I'm a Leeds fan and i agree with the Catalan players.

The RFL is investigating.

How about the RFL realise the refs are usually complete horse manure and this is inevitably going to frustrate people. Better reffing = Less anger at pi55 poor officiating

Until players stop knocking-on, putting kicks direct into touch, failing to find touch with kicks, and missing tackles, more humility and less entitlement wouldn't go amiss.
