NRL 2025 wishlist

[Saxon]

How many would've expressed similar sentiment this time 5 years ago if someone said > Panthers to win 3 comps in a row and then make it 4 just to get one over the dirty Eels

Nah, Panthers 5 years ago were clearly building. Knights are treading water at best.

1. Dragons win every game by 19+.
2. Voss, Brandy and Cronk commenating every Dragons game.
3. Blues clean sweep.
4. More Crumb NRL420 episodes.
5. Listerine to become an official NRL sponsor.

I second this

Bobbing around waiting for Ponga to go to Easts

f**k the bunker off.

I'm happy to live with errors in the run of play if it means we don't have to put up with two minutes of super slow video and still get the wrong decision.

And no @Chins get the wins, I'm not complaining about any particular decision.
Just years worth of f**k ups by the video ref.

Yeah I really think they need an extra guy in there, just a random knockabout pisshead, that calls it asap, then laughs at them, when they take the 3 mins to basically agree with his assessment, seriously unless is a complete fk up, it does not need to be reviewed over and over on live TV.
I mean we already get the 3-4 angles of play to show the try on tv and at the stadium, why are we then having to see it another 3-4 replays after the ref decides it needs to go up for a review GezUS, just show the one that is evidence of a no try, it's not like the ref on field is making the call afterwards

Yep, I could live with that. Just send it up to Gazza.
Sutton says "I'd like to see that another seven times in super slow mo", and Gary goes "Oh f**k off! Looks like a try, it's a try. Lets get on with the game".

I’ve said it many times - I’d like to move to a place where the bunker is only used for tries, captains challenge (if we keep them) and serious acts of foul play missed by the ref (where it’s a send off).

I’d also say they’re not allowed to use super slow mo, needs to be at full speed, and can only use super zoom for ball grounding. If they can’t see an obvious error in the refs decision, then it goes with the refs call. Gets rid of the howler, and stops the nit picking.

One of my pet hates is when 2 players contest a bomb, one player comes down with it, but then on super slow mo and super zoom, they see it brushed his fingernail a thousandth of a second before the contest, so it gets ruled as a knock on. Forget that, let them compete for the ball, and unless it’s an obvious knock on into the other bloke, then whovever comes down with the ball has won the contest.
