I'd love to agree with you TS, but there are some who would disagree...

In the same game, BJ Leiliua loses possession on Jamie Soward's knee, and in the scramble for possession Braith Anasta "scores" (according to the video referee anyway).

Half told stories are pointless.

Not a half told story at all...the original comment was that we don't get crucial calls go our way in prime games. Nothing to do with the other calls in that game.

One of the biggest issues with the referees is they have a preconceived idea of who should win and they dictate the game in that way. How often do you see the refs blow all the penalties in favour of the team that is favourites for the game? The other major issue is the cheat sheets they get from the referee boss and the areas of the game that the referees should focus on during the game. They target particular teams for infringements and lead to lopsided penalty counts.
