Ah you all forget these words from Mason
"Its better Andrew Ryan is captain. Bobcat tells the referee what to do, and
I tell the boys what to do".
And seriously, its not like the referee acts like a UN agent. He is dictator, whether we like it or not. They may get dropped to premier league for a bad game, but ultimately that bad decision in the middle of a game can cost us that game. I think Ryan does fine.
Anyway, I've got this whole theory the refs are in cahoots with the Apec organisers, the govt. the Nrl and police to ensure we finish 5th or 6th and have to go to auckland or townsville for the semis so we don't have a game in sydney. So expect more Clarke like performances over the next 2 weeks.
