OT:The double standard

I’m over the double standard that is the NRL and it always seems against us. From Talakais supposedly front on shoulder charge to Chad Townsends forward pass, and Munsters crusher tackle (I think it was Munster that did. I was 3/4 pissed at the local when I saw it) against us last night.
You can call it the rub of the green or whatever you want. But it has turned me off the game. As it seems to me there are two different sets of rules and it’s us and the warriors that the NRL referees and match review committee don’t like.

I know what you mean. It can be easy to fall into confirmation bias and only see the things that go against your team, but I’ve been noticing it with other teams a lot lately as well

Blake greens gone for weeks with ribs after a late hit on a kick.
Drove his shoulder into green. No arm wrap around.
Green left the game.
No 10 minutes.
Wont miss a game.
Talakai 4 weeks and the bloke he hit played on.

Penalty and on report. Nothing much in that one. Could still get a ban but I doubt it's worth one.
 

Frenzy.

Confirmation bias and subjectivity is the biggest sport on here. All part of the soft, fluffball culture.

Hard charnts just move on.

Prix in here will be bringing this up in 2029

ummm Pardon my fluff But seems that after the last two debacles , the hard merkins in here couldnt seem to move past blaming Morris and his mum... Id love to get on board the "no excuses , Hard charnts move on train " When does it leave the station ? When do the Hard charnts tell Ma Bellamy sign or FO.? When do the "Hard charnts " say ,"Coach , Signed Coach , and dicking us around unsigned Coaching director, you are accountable for results NOW, and NOT in Three yrs time frame to be patiently waiting for to see results ,....Oh and of course while blaming Morris and his mum till then "?
