Belinda Sleeman set to become first female NRL referee

[Different kind of Rabbit]

Just here to see how many times Albert can make the same unfunny joke about Sharpe's surname having changed in the off-season and that it continues to be ignored.

Looks like he's going to keep throwing out that same bit of bait until he reels something in.

A brilliant refereeing performance by Belinda Sharpe. No male referee could have kept up with the play, and kept up a steady stream of instructions to the players, the way that she did. Thank heavens that it was her and not the insufferable Belinda Sleeman making the calls last night.

Are you saying she's better now that she has a man to control her?

 

[The Rosco]

I agree.

It's like comparing Albert Rosenfeld with Jean Capdouze.

" mirror mirror on the wall, who's the greatest French loving, multi-personalitied, know it all rugby league forum killer of them all ?"

"A terribly incompetent and disgusting alternative to the wonderful Belinda Sharpe."
Pfft Albert, as if you'd know anything about the same person parading under a different name ?

 

[adamkungl]

Grow up Rosco.

 

[The Rosco]

Grow up Rosco.

Aw come on Adam . . . . Grow up ? Me ?
How's about the childish, attention seeking charade stops ?
That'll be a big step forward in the growing up stakes.

 

[myrrh ken]

Grow up Rosco.

I liked it better when you pretended not to be albert, stevo etc

 

[Albert Rosenfeld]

Adam was not pretending.

That only works if she is within chain distance of the oven.

 

[Albert Rosenfeld]

I would like to see Belinda Sharpe controlling a game that had a lot of Poms with funny accents that most Aussies cannot understand. That will test her refereeing skills. So I am looking forward to her refereeing a Canberra game.

She's been running the line for the last few weeks.

Did she blow a sandshoe as many people believe or did she just f**k up?

Bernie Sutton's nephew wanted a job so she had to step down.

Blow a sandshoe?

She was too scared to blow penalties

Not up NRL standard

Even on the touch line she won't call forward passes at dummy half

 

[ram raid]

I'm not aware of her f**king up. I don't think it's a demotion. They're probably just easing her into the job.

Sutton had a shocker last night with Manly vs Eels so maybe she'll take his shift next week.

 

[roofromoz]

Amazing he didn't do any real damage.

No idea where this claim by @Vee has come from.

R24 - NQ v CBY - assistant ref
R23 - SYD v SGI - assistant ref
R22 - SOU v CBY - assistant ref

This week she was a touchie, possibly because it's the last round and they experiment with different things behind the scenes. Ziggy Przeklasa-Adamski was head ref tonight for the first time, as an example.
