Watch the game watch how easy the dogs rolled through the middle of a soft useless forward pack. Nothing to do with the ref.
This is not much different to the crap forwards that cost cooke his rep jersey and also decide to leave

Lol, this guy. I make one comment about the Sharks saying they might not have performed as good as they think they did (they went on to lose their next 2), and this clown proceeds to follow me around the forum like a small child. I'm flattered, sweetheart, but I'm married.

You can dish it but you can’t cop it.

Don’t worry I’m sure Uncle Wayne will get some more magic dust again when you play the shyte teams.

As a wise man once said, you missed the point more than Michael Bay missed the point when he made Pearl Harbour...

In fairness the referees are there to police the rules, not make it an even contest. A few years ago the Tigers got absolutely towelled up by the ref in a golden point loss to Souths. In the media briefing on Monday Annessleley admitted three crucial calls were all wrong against the Tigers. Paul Kent then wrote an extremely well worded article about sub conscious bias against so called 'shit teams' by the officials. Essentially it was saying that referees never go out to purposely be against a certain team however in 50/50 moments then 'good teams' will always get the call, this will happen even more so when the game is on the line or the 'shit team' is leading, as sub consciously the referee is programmed to believe the good team should win, the also know that there will be less blow back and less scrutiny if the 'good' team wins as its whats expected.
Your 1st sentence is 100% correct. But the trouble is every week the referees insist on not making it an even contest. My point is that if they can’t resist interfering with the game then why not give the rub of the green to the underdog. Putting the boot in to a team already getting smashed on the scoreboard results in TVs getting turned off and lower ratings. In short it’s bad for business.

Which one lol? The dude in the crowd is shaped like a poached pear, you just know he wouldn't run his mouth at ground level

That makes bogan Jai even softer tbh. Old mate in the crowd looks like a background character in Dilbert and Jai looks like Michelangelo's David if it had a shit haircut and its' face got shrapneled off in WW2
