I have never seen a more officially biased game

I can understand the Knights lost the game they were supposed to win last week and they could be better this week.. And I have never bagged officials for losses But that was the worst set up of a game i've witnessed in the years, with 6 officials looking at everything?
Big plays
Maloneys first try? was 100%
Knights second try? was dead off their fullback and lead to a try
Knights last try? BJ never had control and the ball was at his forearm not his hand.
Aaah well better LUCK next week.

I disagree with the last point. Leilua unfortunately scored that try but there were a lot of dubious calls against us. But we are shit and we won't go far in the finals if we play like that.

We've had a 'rough' run with the refs for 10 years without fail. Hardly a new thing for us, but tonight was beyond a disgrace.

utter rubbish, you were lucky ur $BW wasnt sin binned for a pro foul. But then again you guys make an art form of the pro foul defending your own line. Hell u even won a comp using those tactics and of course this game had the manatory $BW forward pass that was allowed. Hows the Knight junior Coydner going for u guys ? do u have any juniors ? or just buy them ?

lol

i watched parts of the game and all i saw was the ref rule 2 tries to the roosters which were correctly overturned by the Video refs.

The Roosters game is to push the limits of all the rules in order to fatigue the refs from penalising them. They should be penalised MORE in my humble opinion.

Badger the spadger ref'd one side only in the second half. If you can't see that you're an idiot.

Chook.

I think the last Maloney disallowed try was the correct decision as he didn't ground the ball but the first was a try, the ball clearly went behind him before he touched down.

8 times we have received fewer than 5 penalties a game this season.

As a comparison, Souffs have received fewer than 5 penalties a game ZERO times.

Just let that sink in... we're being refereed out of games... not through the penalties we give away, but through the staggeringly below NRL avg. amount we receive.

Let me make it simple .

Souths are coached that penalties are a MISTAKE by the player and the coaching is aimed at minimising mistakes.Teams also are penalised against Souths , as Souths roll down the middle of the field , other teams try to slow down the Souths play the ball and are rightly penalised. As this is a recognised bonus for Souths , Souths also are coached to minimise this advantage to other team.

Roosters are coached to push the referees limits . Also noted early in the tackily count ,especially near the Roosters try line . A penalty at this time really makes little difference and actually puts a break a on the attacking play.

P.s. of course i am biased , however there is element of truth in above.

Sonny wasn't binned because you guys threw a forward pass before he made the tackle. We were inside the 10 hence the penalty and no sin binning. Something every knights fans has failed to acknowledge so far.

Lol you just spent 90% of your post talking about pens conceded. Im talking pens received.

"Rolling up the middle" doesn't justify those stats. Especially when we do that better than anyone just like you.

not going to add to your premiership tally for a few years! The closest you got since '01 was last year, and even then we thrashed you on route to premiership #13. you tried developing your own. didn't work. tried buying Benny and his top players. didn't work.

Any bad luck the roosters had was balanced by the lucky tries they got.........games over, move along.
