One or two I’ll give you but all night? If we were offside all night, it should be easy for you to give me a few screengrabs of these offences.

I can barely type, so that's not going to work.

There is also nowhere to get any stats on Red zone tackles either.

Try the CNK 20m restart in the 33rd or so minute. KEary & others 2m offside. If the ref doesn't even have the awareness or cojones get you back for set occasions then take it as illustrative that blue murder was committed during the flowing parts of the gaAs for grabbing screenshots. Piss off mate. Do it yourself.


Yep, gets out early. As for all night, I‘all just take your word for it. Check out the previous set, however.

Being offside all night & sitting on players like riding horsies while they try to play the ball (JWH & the forward with the big Okunbor hair) was fairly glaring.

Of course the raiders didn't any of that because they are of higher moral standards? Only problem there is that babyface gave you an example in this thread.

2 days after a game your team won and you are still having a sook.

... i mean, thats always gonna happen with one ref right? look at his view, on the ruck. Either the sideline ref has to take ownership of it or vice versa. Not sure you can expect much else to be fair.

no doubt it's a massive fail though, either way.

The game’s gotten to fast for the refs. As long as you make an effort to get back and not get involved in the next play, they’re happy to keep the game flowing. Not saying that’s right but some in the media want them to give the whistle a rest.

Of course.

Babyface is merely pointing out that it happened both ways.

We weren't good enough on the night, it is as simple as that.

A lot of fans of teams that beat us like to think that not only did they overcome overt salary cap cheating but also some refereeing conspiracy against them.

it's definitely not right, i agree. i see your point.
i've noticed the ruck becomes too focused on, and like players and coaching staff ain't gonna take advantage of it? come on....

i tend to think nrl is simply a game of attention. for better or worse. if you can win the refs and the crowd, or the media after you win.

lol...

Nice screenshot mate. I'm pretty sure you noticed that the entire Raiders line were still moving backwards toward the ref while you were taking it.

Lol no they weren't.

The three players closest to the ref are clearly moving forward.

The winger to their right is midway through turning around whilst at least 2 metres offside.

BYC is retreating. The rest look close enough to onside although Papa is marginal.

But they never get back behind the ref before turning around to defend. Despite being accused of being offside all night, the one/only incident highlighted so far happens after this set where we kick the ball dead giving you seven tackles and the Keary misdemeanour causing said outrage.

lol, f**k off dude. Go watch the video and you'll immediately see how deceptive that screenshot is.

Every player to the right of the ref is moving backward while facing foward. Difficult concept to understand, I know, but go watch the video and your brain will figure it out.

Anyone that doesn't make the full ten is offside by half a meter at most. And they turn around and wait for the ball carrier to come to them, they don't move up.

Compare that to the one you were responding to where Keary is at least two meters offside before CNK has tapped the ball and moving up.

Watched it.

You're right, not moving forward. They are not moving at all actually as they have stopped retreating.

Clearly offside

"not moving at all actually"

lol, the only person you're successfully lying to here is yourself.

Ha! Everyone said I was wasting my time arguing on the interwebs. Now I have Roosters fans arguing about how offside their own team was. Now that's change I can believe in. We can all make a difference, every one of us.

God bless your little wobbly wattles.

No we are talking about the raiders being offside.
