Just another avenue for the vidiots to f**k up tbh.
Bring on the captains challenge. Next year.
Its got me stuffed how any fan can enjoy their team winning NOT on their merits, but on assistance from officials
They might grow up one day
Bring on the captains challenge. Next year.
Score should have been:
Cowboys 22
Manly 6
Manly were given 90% of calls in this game. They had one call against yet them Manly fans are continually whinging about that call. That sort of thing happens every game. What about Tafua grounding the ball in-goal and he was allowed to run the ball out? Another decision for Manly.
Fact is, the Cowboys were robbed.
Fact is, the Cowboys were on top when those two bad decisions came against them.
Your post proves one thing, Manly fans are bad winners!
Taking the emotion of last night out of it there are massive questions that need to be asked about the two people in charge of the reffs program.
I think you can look back at who they have promoted through the ranks, the standard of on field officiating, the utter lack of respect for the captains, the men in the video box making wrong decision after wrong decision at the big end of the season and the silence, meek defence or calls to move on to next week from the guys in charge.
It is a disgrace, the standards have slipped every season since they took over.
When you are in a situation where Robert Finch looks like a consumate pro in retrospect you have a massive issue
I'm sick of refs being stood down.
Just sack the bastards.
Exactly. Harrigan and Raper have taken the referees backwards at a rate of knots - Harrigan thinks he is right all the time. The NRL need to sack him and put someone in charge who doesn't have an ego.
The two referees system works - but we just don't have enough quality. Get some more of the ex-players in the system (like Luke Phillips, Henry Perenara). Or fix up the rules to make them easier to understand and interpret.
How stupid did Shayne Hayne look pretending not to hear Thurston last night? f**king arrogant twat.
I have never laughed harder at a thread in my life. f**king drama queens.
So what I got from this thread is:
Tafua try 50/50 most of agreed Yeh momentum took him over fair enough try.
And its clear to say most of you thought Foran knocked on. No try.
Ok fair enough thats a no try according to you guys.
Do any of you whinging merkins wanna mention the strip on tafua that they scored.
Does anyone wanna mention the 5m forward pass for there other try?
So Im my counting thats 2 dodgy tries for cowboys and 1 from us.
Manly wuzz robbed. Dey took our jobs!!! Derp derpa Derp Derp!!!
But anyway continue Im seriously pissing myself.
Was this after Taufua's non-grounding?
If so, he told JT he wasn't going to address him if JT was going to approach him disrespectfully.
JT was a little over zealous but Hayne should have shown some discretion, there was a lot on the line at that time.
Henry Perenara is probably the worst referee in history. He is bloody awful.
The problem is that the NRL referees group is an old boys club. There are some damn good referees out there who deserve a chance, the problem is once you're in, you're in and unless you're mates with the right people it really doesn't matter how well you go in Toyota Cup, NSW Cup or wherever, you've got no chance.
Some of the best Toyota Cup referees are comfortably better than some of the arrogant twats in first grade, but they'll never get a look in because it seems the only way a referee gets dumped from the first grade squad is by retiring.
Bill Harrigan really is the start and the end of the problems at the moment. As long as he remains in charge, the situation will only get worse.
