f**k off. Walter's raked that?

What fcking replay was the bunker watching?

JC! My default position is with the refs but they're hard to defend on tonight's evidence.

Saints get penalised for dragging the player into touch.

Ref "all you can challenge is if the player went into touch. You can't challenge the penalty".
Flanagan "I want to challenge".

f**k me dead. How can the son of a coach be so f**king stupid?

Just bumping in the inevitable event that the apparent best referee, one Ashleigh Klein, f**ks up tonight's match.

Sweeps anyone?

My tip is that his first of many f**k ups will be in the first 10 minutes.

Lol.

So Olakau'atu gets banished to the sheds.

And Nate 'I shit in sneakers' Myles gets a ticker tape parade.

His decisions over the years need to be seriously looked at. He is obviously using his position as a referee to manufacture close games. He's a disgrace.

Bill harrigan did that his whole career. Too bad if the better team eventually loses, at least it was a close game.

99 gf the most classic case.

Billy was a f**king egomaniac. Never forget the Eels Knights game where he binned four Eels, pretty much all randomly (it's been a long time but I recall one at least was legit, and probs frustration)...and then in his autobiography literally said "I knew what Parra were going to do and I made sure I stopped it".

Absolute f**knut and a terrible ref.

Couple of awful calls both ways tonight. As has been mentioned, the bunker check for a try 40m away from the tryline with NSW back up there with the ball on the attack.
The other big one that comes to mind was when the blues had the ball attacking 10 out in front of the posts, an absolute shit show in the ruck NSW player is pulled by the leg and goes back down. Klein blows time off.
I’m sure Qlders will have a couple of ridiculous calls they disagreed with as well.

Midway through the second half, Lomax finally gets a chance at a bomb after being blocked the whole game - he jumps, catches the ball and passes it back. Hammer clearly knocks it on, but play on QLD. However, the better team won on the night, and the series so it's pointless nitpicking little moments.
