Justice for the Wests Tigers

Hey dickhead

It's already happened to us three f**king times already

Check out the video below

Have fun whacking off to it

Once again it's not our fault the refs are shit

Is it karma if the sharks, easts and manly get f**ked over in the finals too ?


Can't speak for other Wests fans, but I don't hate the Cowboys over this. Gamesmanship is practised by every team, every week. No one set of fans can claim the high ground on that. It's on the referees to weed that shit out of the game, and it's also incumbent upon them to make sure they follow their own rules and procedures. The Cowboys pulled out the stops to try and salvage the win, and they did.

It was an otherwise great game of footy, the Tigers actually f**ken showed up for once which was nice to see. The last ten years have been f**k all to talk about.

Even without that crazy ending, I thought the Tigers deserved to win and were the better team on the day.

Dane Laurie will get the 3 Dally M points for sure, he had an absolute blinder.

Hey there Dick,
If I'm gonna have a whack over a footy game, it'd probably be the '05 semi. Or, the GF ? Decisions, decisions . . .oh well, looks like a multiple.
Oh, and I don't hate decent Cowboys fans either.

That's a discretionary penalty - which can't be challenged.

Full-list:
10m offside
Ruck and marker infringements
Time-wasting
Dissent
Deliberate forward pass
Scrum penalties
Forward pass
One of the most common challenges is stripping the ball in a tackle - isn't that considered a ruck infringement?

So the Captain challenge by James Tamou was NOT allowed claiming the kick was illegal and called offside..Ref says already cleared.....mmmmm
I don't understand how it could be cleared when townsand challenged the non ref decision on the escort. He didn't challenge the offside. Tamau did so it should have been looked at

Unfortunately Klein, in the bunker, had called them all onside at the kick off. He erred twice in his ruling.
It meant that Tamou was challenging the bunkers decision, which he cannot do.
If Tamou has challenged the offside before it being sent to the bunker, then that would be another major issue that may come out in the transcripts.

According to press reports, it was being offside at the kickoff which is what Tamou wanted to challenge.

Yes, I have posted on that. It was Holmes and the way he kicked off, it was offside. This isnt what I posted about, it was the timing of the Tamou challenge.
The bunker calls the Cowboys 'onside at the kick off'.
Once he has done that it cannot be challenged.
Tamou then challenges for the offside AFTER THE BUNKERS DECISION, he cannot challenge the offside as the bunker has ruled them all on side.
Even so, Klein obviously didnt check the kicker for being off side, like I said, he erred in two places.
If Tamou in some way has challenged for the offside before it goes up to the bunker then the transcripts will show that.

Your right, If you look at the kick-off Holmes was offside right in front of the referee. Remember when some clown of a ref had a hard-on for anybody being in front of the half way line at the start or kick-off. Anyway dip shit ref never considered it , even though it was right in front of him.

Just goes to show how blind these refs are, that an indiscretion could happen in front of them and totally miss it.

1) no one has said it was incorrect, this is you saying that which means as much as me saying it was correct

2) you cant say that decision in the 43rd minute changes anything. for all you know the cowboys get the ball, drop it from the scrum, tigers pick it up, score and go on to win by 20
The commentators thought it was incorrect and the video referee couldn't see any evidence of a strip, so you're being incredibly dishonest by saying I am the only person whos saw it. You're downplaying this incident because it puts everything in perspective. If you're going to be obtuse and pretend it never happened then you'll lose credibility.

Your team was unlucky at the end of the game, but there's been occasions where these decisions went in your favour and helped your team win. See the 2019 game between these two clubs for an example of the referees awarding a dodgy decision in favour of the Tigers that impacted the result. Tigers fans and their coach celebrated that decision and didn't offer to concede the premiership points to the Cowboys.

I never said you did and I have nothing against the tigers either (I was at the final in 05, the Benji flick pass happened right in front of me)

What I was getting at was your hope that our club gets f**ked over by the refs in the finals

Newsflash, it's already happened. Three times.

And yes as a club and as supporters we went a bit nuts for a while. I get it. I've been there. That was really the point I was trying to make

The one that really f**ks me off still is Simpkins not letting us have a scrum after we had it packed and ready to go v the roosters in 04. Simpkins can go f**k himself. Once again odds are we lose anyway and I've got nothing against the roosters

It's almost like people don't give a f**k about this sort of thing unless it's a Sydney team involved.

Don't forget about the 2019 game between Tigers and Cowboys. Cummins awarded a try to the Tigers after a blatant knock-on in the lead up to the try. He refused to send it to the video referee. Annersley apologised to Cowboys over it. Tigers won that match 27-26 in Golden Point. The Tigers coach said his team were lucky about the try and celebrated the win. It could be argued that the Cowboys' 27-26 win over Tigers on Sunday is karma coming back to bite the Tigers.

That '04 game will haunt me til I die.

NQ were stooged throughout the whole afternoon, I don't play the blame the ref card but that game was f**king criminal by Simpkins.
