Is this your first time reading Annesley's round-up? He backs the referees 99% of the time unless it's absolutely blatant.

Imagine the carry-on if they'd actually lost the game, Jesus Christ. Is this what it's like every time your team gets outplayed?

Most of them have only been Panther fans since 2021.

No, only when an opposing team’s fan base pisses and moans about being penalised for hair pulling as an excuse as to why they lost the game.

Yeah the only good thing about his round up is seeing what bullshit lie or new rule he's going to make up to defend bad decisions.

The other link demonstrates this to an almost comical level:

The NRL has stopped short of saying Lachlan Fitzgibbon should have been penalised for a late tackle on Nathan Cleary in Saturday’s game between Penrith and Newcastle at McDonald Jones Stadium.

But Head of Football Graham Annesley admitted it could have easily been a penalty, suggesting he would have backed his officials had they made such a call on the night
Umm, what?
