Well last week I said that the Dogs (and Raiders) would be hoping that they were shit because of the weather.

Looks like the Dogs are just shit

The GOAT truly showed off his kicking, clutch plays, leadership and game management today. My 3 2 1 are:

3. GOAT Galvin
2. Dominic Young
1. Tie - Billy Slater and Sandon Smith

Its becoming more and more obvious that favoured sides get leniency in games. If you're a bottom dweller you have to earn your luck in the NRL and it's a terrible look for the game. Last week, Newcastle were annihilated with penalties, 6 agains and sin-bins and whilst they weren't good enough in defence, they honestly never had a chance to play.

This match showed blatant preferential treatment from Gough and sideline officials. None of the Dogs points were legitimate. Foul play from Dogs players was allowed throughout the match. Officiating is getting worse in the game. Crushers, high shots and hip drops were all instant sin-bins recently. Now they're not? Also, there's a major problem with forward passes in the game at present. Tech exists to rule on passes during video. We need to use it.

Knights won against all odds but it shouldn't be that way.
