nrl from the uk armchair

[ME SO HORNBY!]

I think this system needs to be punted. It doesnt change the fact that alot of the time the ref has no idea. So if he calls it wrong and theres no camera angle. You are screwed.

Better than before. Haven't been any real howlers this year in the matches I've seen. Before there used to be 2 or 3 howlers every week.

do people still f**king believe this shit in 2014?

It's true compared to Super a League which is what the whole comparison was about. Yes, you get breaks from inside your own half and teams do throw it about if they have to but it's only as a last resort. That's not to say they don't pass the ball but it rarely goes more than 2 sets of hands. Why would you too? A mistake in your own half in the NRL is deadly. In the SL, not so much unless you're playing one of the top 5 teams.

Oh, that part was tongue in cheek because of all the errors they make.

Has this post been pre dated for the year 2016?

Sadly the majority of our errors in our own half come from basic one out plays that they still manage to consistently f**k up.

Hell, at this point I'd take a little bit of throwing the ball around in our own half. At least they'd be trying something.

watched a few games this weekend, its clear billy slater is past his best, the young wests tigers fullback looks great though, whos reffing? the officials or the players? whats the point of debating it will never change a refs mind-get on with it or get marched back 10m that was the best way.

Hey, has anyone here told you about the LOL@50UFF5 phenomenon ?

one of the reasons I subscribed to the uk channel was to see the great -benny barba- how come he is total crap these days?:roll:

Hi Bedlam.

It's mostly because of playing for Brisbane who has a coach that has no creative ability apparently and probably coz his form has dropped massively as well.
