Blaming the Ref Syndrome

I think the thing that winds me up, a coach can call the refs cheats and question their integrity. They’ll cop a fine that will probably sting a little, then they’ll win the penalty count the next few weeks. It essentially makes the fine an investment.

I think the need for a penalty count to supposedly be even is what the good teams will manipulate. The smart teams will give away 2-3 penalties in a row right before the break. It essentially pads the penalty count for them and has them suffer little consequence as the break is coming in a few tackles.
