Refs

[CBDoggies]

I find it hard to believe every time we are in a game the refs always blow us off the park. Yes some were our fault but it’s just plain cheating when your counts are 3-4 times the amount of the opposing team.

I’m over the 6 agains and stupid rulings, one team gets more leverage then others and a lot of the time it’s the higher placed teams who get the rub. Nrl is gona die a slow death if this keeps up. 13-4 infringements in that game… cmon what a gee up

 

[Stinger]

Agree. **** ref fucked us over and beat us out the game again. Hard to see out boys try their guts out without reward.

 

[Costa84]

And it seems to get worse every time Baz highlights in a presser

 

[bulamakdoggy]

Ruck infringements 4-1 Bulldogs
Inside 10 meters 3-0 Bulldogs
Penalties Conceded 6-3 Bulldogs

 

[B-Train]

I'm not one to blame refs and we still could have won if Meaney didn't have a shocker and if Lewis had a brain. But I'm sick to death of the opposition getting minimal six agains against them while we get pinged for everything.

You can argue in the blowouts that we deserve it and most times we do. But in the close games like the last two weeks, there's no way Souths and the Roosters were faultless in defence.

Honestly we don’t do ourselves any favours. Hetherington And napa give away the dumbest penalties every week which fuck us up. Hetherington is proving to be a dud signing

 

[Howie B]

Yep happens every week

It’s ok to vent but until the club grows a fucking backbone and calls it out in the post match presser then nothing will change.

Cop the $20k. Baz just needs to say there are rules for top teams and rules for bottom teams. 2 weeks in a row we have been despised outsiders and would have won with a 50/50 share of ref calls.

Gus will give it to refs when he comes. Like he said in origin 3 game at 1/2 time, someone needs to knock on the refs door and tell them crowd isn't here to watch you.

I swear the ref called a six again late in the game (maybe 10 mins to go) for us, but bell never rung and we had to kick away two tackles later (Lewis kicked it)...

Can’t wait.!!

I thought I heard it also but he prob meant held… I was like what happened to the call

 

[Heckler]

13 to 4 in total. What a hammering

 

[w00t]

Hopefully with Gould on board and the fact he generally has a bigger influence in the game we eventually get our fair share.

When you have millionaire and billionaire backers like the Souths (Crowe), Roosters (Politis), Storm (News Ltd) and etc you are bound to get the calls go your way. Panthers seemed to have come out on top after Gould worked his magic there, we need external influence as this world and this game will always be weighted heavily in favour of the rich and powerful.

Maybe someone with more time than us can check the replay. I thought it was when we were only down by 4 too.. anyways could be wrong

It’s blatant cheating… it’s so obvious nrl have an agenda and if it’s not the nrl then it’s obviously the individual ref who’s in charge.

 

[Ribo Flavin]

Dumb mistake ridden team with no one to blame but themselves.

 

[Mr. Ditkovich]

What about the time where we had a 20m tap, and every Souths player was offside. They were right in front of Cummins so he couldn’t miss it.

Even the commentators pointed it out.

 

[dogluva]

The six again are a real lottery and if you get them after only one tackle and not in the opponent red zone it is worthless. It would be interesting to see just how many six again are given well into the tackle count and the position on the field they are given. Big difference early in the count and in your own half as to late and in the opponent half.

You can argue in the blowouts that we deserve it and most times we do. But in the close games like the last two weeks, there's no way Souths and the Roosters were faultless in defence.

In fact, in the last bombed try by Souths there was a blatant obstruction, yet we didn't get a penalty, just a restart on our ten.
We were pinged for everything tonight. It was close game, but we were starved of possession, and it's become standard every game that we chase decent possession. Yes, we are poor at holding the ball, but the opposition get some pretty cheap repeat sets to keep pressure on us.

 

[KLil]

Will be the fittest team by the end of the year leading into pre season BUT it wont mean shit because the NRL will probably just scrap the 6 again rule.
