Is that the most one-sided refereeing performance you've seen this year?

[no name]

Archer seems to confirm the impression that his referees are concerning themselves with managing games rather than officiating them.

It's a f**king joke the way they coach the players through each play.

Can they ref the dragons a bit more then?

Please?

 

[t-ba]

It's quite bizarre mocking someone's side for winning a premiership 3 years before your last a decade ago.

Will this weekends match be the much vaunted war?

 

[El Diablo]

that was last years GF

Derp, When was the last time one of those dopes with a flag made a decision on offside that wasn't referred?

I don't believe there was anything 'sinister' in what was said, but shouldn't these dickheads be alert well positioned for the full 80?

Just goes to show how bad the leadership and processes are that they have to remind each other of what may happen in a close game.

I have no doubt there was something sinister involved. Are they saying that if the scores aren't close the referee's will ignore the rules of the game? Why use the word 'only' in the 'only 12 points in it badge'. This implies that it is closer than it should be. Those 2 refs are as corrupt as it gets.

In the interview on nrl.com, archer said that the reason for communicating the scores between officials is to give them a heads up whether to be on the lookout for field goals/ players shooting the kicker from offside.

Make of that what you will. I can't figure out if I believe him.

 

[El Diablo]

players shooting the kicker

you'd think that might warrant a penalty no matter how close the scores are

 

[SBD82]

Ha. Probably.

Unless they did it with minimal force, or the judiciary couldn't prove there was intent.

 

[THE CHAMP]

Unless you play for the bulldogs.

Anyway there are epic levels of salt and butthurt in here.
The only questionable call that went ths Broncos way in this game was the Oates dangerous contact penalty. And that was 50/50 anyway.

The rest of the game was reffed just fine.
Some of you merkins need to clean your glasses.

 

[Shorty]

We'll take your word for it, Champ, oh most impartial.

 

[This Year?]

If the Dragons got reffed like the Donkeys did last Friday I'd be thinking it was 2010 again.

I get that but it is a load of shit, as i said, why not say '12 points in it' not 'only' 12 points in it. That changes the context of the comment. Secondly the match should be refereed exactly the same regardless of the score, not make comments that the refs remind themselves of the score so they properly enforce the rules. So what circumstances should they not enforce the rules properly. Archer is always full of spin.. None of it believable.

I am fine with that penalty, I don't agree with it being awarded but they are pretty consistent with how they treat that situation, which is more down to the fact that no one involved in the game has any feel for football. They are just a bunch of yes men. I wouldn't call straight bias on that one..

 

[THE CHAMP]

When kasiano kicked Parker in the face we didn't even receive a penalty. Didn't hear anything out of the butthurt union then though.
We cop shit calls all the f**ken time but the salty merkins can't see them because the butthurt has affected their vision.

 

[BuffaloRules]

Just watching the U 20s game and have just seen the worst decision of the year...

Player stepped out of touch 5 metres out and placed the ball down on the Sideline but a try was awarded.

This game is surely up the creek with officiating like this...

 

[Rhino_NQ]

Yep that was disgusting
