Every single Knights try has come from a dodgy call by the refs. The Sharks were robbed blind by an incorrect forward pass call.

If the calls were made correctly, it's currently 6-0 to the Sharks.

This is a f**king disgrace.

What was questionable about Uates try?

What was wrong with the other two Knights tries?

I understand Archer's call... in that once the video ref told him it was stripped it's now just a decision on whether the player had downward pressure on it... I don't though get the refs call, call. You can't call that a strip, the blokes making a fair dinkum tackle. He's also I don't think fully sighted of the ball. You can tell a strip, the bloke intentionally goes for it, I don't think thats a strip for your life - poor ball control, should have been no try.

Agree.

How is Houston running through a massive gap become the fault of the ref and not the fault of sh*t defence?

Sharks have been dudded a tackle in this set. Clearly knocked on by the Knights, yet Archer called 1 instead of zero.

Houston was in front of the kicker, and therefore offside when he batted it back to Uate.

The second try, the Knights got their field position due to a disgraceful high tackle call that was completely around the shoulders.

That's not rugby league. The video ref should be sacked for sending it back down to Archer. I don't care if he thinks it was stripped, that's as clear a knock on as you will ever see.

Wow! Just wow.

How on earth could he award that??

Well EVERYBODY needs to understand there is nothing in the rules stating that you have to have control of the ball when forcing it. That is an imaginary rule that the tv comentators invented.

Tony Archer explained the reason it was awarded and under his interpretation he is correct.
