Except he couldn't help himself. There had to be a dig at the officials in there somewhere ;-)

Well, in his defense, the officials are pretty sh*t.

Of course they are, but they're pretty easy scapegoats wouldn't you say?

How have I used them as scapegoats? The Raiders would have lost regardless of the video refs decision, doesn't make it any less abhorrent.

Do you know what the official explanation of the no try was? Bronson Harrison stopped his run. That's why the try wasn't given. Do you know what that means? If he had kept running and completely cleaned up the defender, it would have been a try.

:crazy:

Not if they are competent.

I daresay everyone on the forum has had a go at officials for something this year, whats wrong with skeepe doing it when its justified?

 

[Raider_69]

that dugan no try was utter bullsh*t, the fact the tigers scored a try off an identical decoy late in the halves was absolutely hilarious

as skeepe says, doesnt change the result one bit, we were garbage and in the end probably lucky the tigers didnt make it 40 or 50, but refereeing standards this season have hit an all time low

Yeah, the Dugan try was a try for sure. Since when do you now get a "no try" ruling for NOT taking out the defender? :lol:

I saw a few interesting stats come up on WIN news here tonight. The Raiders are only awarded tries 40% of the time when the decision goes upstairs. The NRL average for all teams is 64%. And teams playing against them are awarded 86% of decisions going upstairs! :shock:
