Lol, did Wobbo mention the Jennings knock on before the Manu try? Or the Collins knock on from the kick off? Or the late hit on Hughes that went unpunished before Munster was binned? Or the obstruction penalty that cost Melbourne a try, when it was Keary who made the defensive decision to tackle the lead runner?

What a sook.
Hang on, Robbo was watching another game to you. Lol.

Robbo is trying to put pressure on Graeme Annesley

Thats all he cares about.

How about the fact that Easts were terrible with ball in hand.

Robbo, try and fix that.

Storm werent great, which probably says a lot about how roosters played. Storm keep winning despite looking a shadow of their former selves at this time. Makes for more interesting games I suppose.

The NRL just keeps giving him something to whinge about

That's our last 3 losses by 6 points now with a key mistake by the bunker in all 3 of them. There was the ridiculous obstruction in the Penrith game, the Radley binning in the dogs game and now the 'driver' in this game. The NRL admitted the first two were wrong and will have to do the same for this one on Monday. Meanwhile, I don't recall any such incidents in our favour.
You don't recall any such incidents in your favour? Really?
Tedesco's hacking kick at Paps leg maybe? Or Hughes being taken out as he was trying to chase a kick through into the Roosters in-goal?
JWH getting a smack on the wrist for a late hit on Welsh? If that was a Storm player on Teddy that's 10 right there.

I think you are Karen Robinson and I claim my 5 pounds.

In referring to outright wrong bunker decisions.

Teddy got the appropriate in game punishment that was established in round 2 when luai didn't get binned.

The reffing is bad for all teams, my issue is with the bunker who have time to look at plays and still get it wrong.

The only wrong bunker decision in last night's game was Klown not sending the kick into the ingoal that led to Munster's sin bin up to the bunker. Hughes taken out.

Nelson had minimal impact, and Remis a) was contesting the ball, and b) was bumped by Watson, hence contact with Manu in the contest.

Having said that Robbo is just answering the questions posed to him. Is he supposed to say he agrees with the decision which was clearly wrong? He laid out very eloquently what the NRL communicated as the rule in the pre-season and unless the NRL want to say that is wrong then the bunker has f**ked up a black and white ruling... again.

The next question he was asked was around the 10 minute period where we had an extra man and our failure to score. He spoke about his disappointment in our inability to build pressure and score and commended the storm defence in that period.

He ain't blaming the refs, he is answering the questions the media are asking him.
I tend to disagree. I feel he is going a bit overboard with his complaints. Consider the Dom Young high tackle sin bin. He complained about that when it was clearly forceful contact to the jaw.
