...if you can play poorly and still win comfortably then you are going ok.

Hang on, I thought you belted us?

And 'win comfortably'???

WTF???

You only had the game won in the final 7 or 8 minutes, you tool. Your own supporters (who I was sitting with) even admitted as much.

Clown.

We had the game in a comfortable position for all but about 5 minutes of the game and once you jokers got close, we stepped up and put two tries on, so yes it was comfortable.

I never said we belted you, I said you were outplayed and outclassed. We were poor by our standards, but if concentrating on our performance gets you through the week, then go for it.

If I was in your shoes though, Id be worrying about the Sharks.

Speaking of Refs I saw Archer in the Bridal Registery in DJ's in Miranda on Sunday Morning.
Even in the cool light of day he seemed like a tosser , reminds me of that bloke in Seinfeild called Banya.
His missus was average at best. :)

that was harsh I know but I'm one wave short of a shipwreck today.

Don't forget Merrits foot, benefit of the doubt my jacksie, his foot was over the line.
Bad reffing both ways, bad playing both ways. The reffing and the playing were of the same standard.

with due respect it didnt look that comfortable with 9 minutes to go and 2 points in it

sure

why are you so nervously trying to convince us of st georges ability to improve?

if you listened to triple M late yesterday afternoon, they interviewed Brownie and he said you have to give the benefit of the doubt

i have no doubt the (marginally) better team on the day got the result. scrappy from both teams but the sharks got what they deserved from so many errors and poor choices / executions. dragons were better - no excuses. barrett, sims and even riddell were all excellent.

but i also have no doubt that hampstead's run of crucial shocker decisions denied the sharks a fair go and gave the dragons points when they shouldn't have had them. all of the above incidents are plain to see on the footage. that's just not good enough.

shocking mr bean. if that's your best i think you should be fined for bringing the game into disrepute.

millersnose, thats two references to me being nervous. I can tell you I have nothing to be nervous about, Im actually rather relaxed and upbeat about the game.

I dont need to convince myself that we can improve, its there for everyone to see. If you cant see it, then go follow the soccer because your knowledge of league needs some work.

From www.foxsports.com

Two leading referees face the prospect of being dumped to Premier League today after the weekend's round.

It started on Friday night with the Matt Utai knock-on drama involving referee Tony Archer.

At Oki Jubilee Stadium, it was Sean Hampstead, the man dumped from Origin III, who Raper was unhappy with after a couple of questionable calls.

Adding further weight to Raper's comments were the voices of four other coaches - Tim Sheens, Steve Folkes, Brian Smith, Des Hasler and Michael Hagan - who all expressed disappointment about the standard of refereeing in round 20.

"The way the game was played both sides lost the plot. The whole game lost the plot," Raper said.

"The referee was in part of that. It sort of all went haywire. It was a mistake-a-thon by everybody on the field."


Referees boss Robert Finch refused to concede scalps might be sacrificed for round 21 but did admit the referees were under more pressure.

At Kogarah, Hampstead got off to a shaky start and never appeared to be completely comfortable, inexcusably letting a complaint about a head-butt from Dragons hooker Lincoln Withers go unchecked.

In the fourth minute Hampstead made a wrong call about a Sharks knock-on but fortunately video referee Steve Clark intervened to reverse the call.

In the 16th minute Jason Stevens was stripped in a two-man tackle but the Dragons were awarded the ball.

unfortuantely those quotes are mostly from Rapes so there is a fair bit of bias

but i read somewhere today an article that went through incident-by-incident a few of the bad calls

actually it might have been the rest of the article you pasted

:lol:

Somebody please tell me what there is to be worried about?

I couldnt give two sh*ts what you think millernose, or for that matter what any of you people think. We were average but it was one of those stop start messy games which are unavoidable during a season.

Like I said before, its about building momentum leading up to the finals. If we were playing our best football now, Id be worried.

I think we have a nice solid platform to make our advance on the semis.

What a bunch of wankers.

Yeah Im nervous, its bloody killing me.

I came on here to laugh at your attempt to blame the ref for your team's sh*t performance. Simple as that.

Out of the eight, goodbye.

hmm you spent 10 paragraphs justifying st georges poor performance and trying to assure us they will improve

now you seem to have lost your temper and are bagging the sharks

the fact is you guys have only won one more game than us

does that make st george 1 win from being a sh*t team?
