This whole saga is just a case study in the hopeless position NRL refs are in. They are never going to placate us imbeciles. Dumbest fanbase in the world.

I came into say something along these lines (maybe not as blatantly) but yeah, I agree with the sentiment. That was literally a no-win position for Atkins.This whole saga is just a case study in the hopeless position NRL refs are in. They are never going to placate us imbeciles.

Yeah, it was. Again, weird fans - it was an intense first 40 minutes, the pace was insane...but I dunno, it wasn't 28-20 so it's not entertaining? Because it was. To me, I guess.I'm obviously biased, but the 1st half was a cracking contest.
Some people see what they want to see or whinge for the sake of it. I get that it didn't have a "Sattler Tackle" or a "Benji Flick" moment, it was just a good old slugfest. It probably wont feature in too many highlight reels in years to come, Turuvas try was pretty to watch though.Yeah, it was.

1st half 9.5/10I'm obviously biased, but the 1st half was a cracking contest.
I'd go higher than 2 on the 2nd half, but I agree it wasn't as good a contest as the 1st. The score was still close, but at no point in the 2nd half did I feel worried.1st half 9.5/10
2nd half 2/10
6/10 overall. 2021 probably the best whistle to whistle contest of the 4.
2023 obviously had the most drama.
