I'll tell you objectively why you lost those 3 games against Sutton. Sutton is awake to the Sharks antics in the ruck i.e holding tacklers down, thrashing around like a fish out of water, moving to oneside to get the marker offside and inlike the other refs he wont penalise as much for this.
The Sharks need those penalties and actually receive the most amount penalties in that area compared to other teams. It gives them easy metres upfield and they can execute their plays, which they do very well.
The problem for the Sharks is that is how the semi finals are reffed, so you will need to adjust.
This is from an unbiased observer.
really? that's funny because i can barely remember many ruck penalties like you have describe going against us, maybe a couple
i can however recall relieving penalties for the opposition when they are pinned in their 10-20m zone for offisde, which most teams are, or the the odd high shot, bit like gallens shot a few weeks ago that hit the shoulder and made no contact with the head, theyre always funny to watch those ones
can also remember another few funny ones, like the try the titans scored off a sweep play in the second half where the second man caught the ball inside the lead runner, that was really funny that one, watching gal explain the rule to the ref with his hands
its also funny the amount of dispossessions weve encountered through hands on the ball with two in the tackle, happened against ennis in the titans game at a crucial stage and happened last week, again at a crucial stage
i could go on and on, the amount of shit we've whitnessed in 3 weeks under that f**kwit
you can guantentee anything with a bit of grey will not fall our way with that wanker
why the f**k any team gets the same referee 3 weeks in a row, questions have to be asked, and why right now at a the point were finals contenders are building momentum for the finals
flanno needs to tee off like robinson did to put these merkins on notice
when youre performances are down the last thing you need is to be playing off an uneven keel
for the record, we are the most penalised team in the comp, so we are hardly relying on penalties for our game plan to be effective
