St George Illawarra should recieve a written apology from Gavin Badger and Ryles should be compensated.

Ryles shoulda got 10 mins. I had no problem with the ref trying to get some control back in the game like he did - but send off was a bit too much.

It must be friggin frustrating for the ref when boofheads wont listen. But still - Badger Brainsnap!

Blokes - the politically correct no serious contact game of today is killing League.

You are my enemy. But I will make an assumption here. The current crop of whistle blowers get brownie points when they "kick a goal" on blokes like your Ryles and our Gallen.

If the opportunity arises to make their mark on the game by taking out a baddie then they cream at the chance to show how strong a ref they are.

Not only has the game got boring through Kick, kick, kick, it has gone pathetically soft.

You only have to look when a bloke makes a real hard hurting tackle. If the flag boy doesn't come running in, the replays are shown over and over and over again hoping to pick up an indescretion (check me spellun) .....

The players have picked up the cancer too. They stay down when hit hard trying to milk it. The good old days they would of been snotted by the tacklee for being a girl.

Honestly if it wasn't for my loyalty to my side I would walk away from the code.

The netball is starting to look more attractive - and the forwards are tougher then most.

Cheers

How do you work that out steel dragon, when the storm player kicked ryles 1st?
Indeed.

1. Lima stomps on Ryles' foot.
2. Ryles pulls his foot away and tries to the same.
3. Lima tries a kick with limited success.
4. Ryles kicks back and makes contact with Lima's foot/shin.
5. Referee has a panic attack and makes the news.

Ryles should never been sent off.

At most, it should have been a penalty to Saints. But even that would have been an overeaction from the ref.

They should've both been told to stop being boofheads and play footy. Pack the psuedo scrum, and away we go.

you were going well up until this.


gallen is a straight grub. i've never seen ryles face-rake, play dead or blindside opponents.


don't attempt to compare the two.

one is a straight grub & deserved of any decision he cops.

Yep. The whole incident should have gone by without notice. The fuss that Badger has brought upon himself is extraordinary.

ryles simply has brain explosions... gallen has pre-meditated intent

do refs cop fines or get dropped when they have sh!t house games??? I havent seen it in ages. they can just turn up each week and cost a team 2points then walk back into first grade.

It happens with players and coaches so why not refs :sarcasm:

Gavin Badger needs to publicly apologise for his actions under the pressure he was feeling. If not him, then Finchy should stand up and tell the public.

An absolute blight on rugby league, the refs are.

It also showed me and thinking back through history that the Refs DO have a thing for Ryles - Prove me Wrong Finch

They may have just rubbed him out of the game.

I hope their proud of what they do!

Ps... Here's my $10,000... I can afford it!

Gavin Badger is a disgrace !!!!
He should go coach netball , if he wants to make rugby league soft . All the old boys of rugby league must be in huge shock after seeing the Ryles send off and how soft rugby league is becoming . I don't reckon any players should of even been sin binned . We all know that dragons and storm don't like each other

They talk of 'growing the pie' and keeping our players from going overseas but why in the world would Jason Ryles want to stay and play for the NRL???

Look at what happened to Craig Smith FFS. He was driven out of the country.

Benty yebi of a ref is nothing but a big pitchka in my opinion.
Da?

What about the tackle put on Creagh by those 2 MLB forwards and that pitka penalising that as well?
That was a great tackle and he awards a penalty saying dangerous position?

The game is turning into basketball where any contact will be deemed -

I give up.

I'm being turned off RL as the years go by these days.

P.S. and there was nothing in the Jamie Soward tackle for that blow up either.
Soward didn't do a thing and it turned into a melee.
He gets 10 just for being tackled then mauled?
