The referee in fact makes an ASSUMPTION on field as he watches in real time that Stimson did it deliberately. Annesley says " he sees a player with a handful of hair and makes an immediate decision" Just blah blah comments comparing it to the five other incidents charged this year.
Brent Read made a point of saying that Barrett has been involved in two sprays at the officials this year...I didn't think that he sprayed the officials in his match interview last weekend, Read is just stirring the pot.....
"A massive avalanche of criticism not warranted" another comment that is very dismissive of the problems in the game with officials. If they didn't keep changing their view on things week in week out people would probably let it slide but they don"t. Consistency is all we ask for and unfortunately we don't get it.
Yes I think Analslee has made a huge negative judgement on Bulldogs fans by saying the pile on has been way over the top by us....it's not just Bulldogs fans mate.
It's virtually all the commentators on TV and radio paid to tell it like it is.
It happens so rarely that it's ever put under examination (purely because it's ONLY the Bulldogs, so who cares) and highlighted the hypocrisy of the NRLol, ref standards and gravy train imbeciles ruining the game.
