I get that but Lol its funny coz theyve only won one game and either way score shouldve been 20-12 because one of them just wasn't a try and it wasn't even checked lolHe is playing it smart, they have a losing record with him so they are basically forcing the nrl not to pick him to ref their games.
100% right, that try that the roosters knocked on didn't even get a mention and trent is sooking fuck off you clown I hope you get 10k fined.Robinson is a twat
Roosters scored off a forward pass which could of been seen from out of space and another try which was a clear knock on, which didn't go to the bunker even though picking your ass gets sent straight to the bunker

That was a great pass if you where playing NFLwhat about their first try which was due to a 10 m forward pass from Jake Friend himself
Also he reffed last years semi against usTalking Sport ( on the TV) dispelled at least one of the complaints that Robinson made. Both he and Jake friend maintained that Cummins did not look at the Roosters captain whilst he was speaking to him during the game, being very disrespectful , but they had a video clip which showed Cummins eyeballing ( in a good way) Friend by keeping direct and focussed eye contact with him the whole time he was talking to him ( This is one way in which people can diffuse a volatile situation) and in fact Friend actually looked away himself.
Cummins refereed only two competition games involving the Roosters last year ( lost Rd 13 vs. Sharks and won Rd 16 vs. Dragons) and in the finals first week (lost vs. Storm) all by narrow margins. I do know that they have made a rod for their own backs over the years with their tactics of deliberately giving away penalties to disrupt the flow of the game ensuring those ref cheat sheets got a good workout. Can't have it both ways fellas when things don't go 100% your way. Last year they were on the wrong end of penalty counts in a lot of games from other officials like Klein, Cecchin and I am talking something like 10-2 and 7-2 against and but still won majority of those games.
As much as I feel our on field officials have got it wrong many times you cannot blame Cummins for the fact that the bunker got involved. He had not directly asked them to adjudicate but they did whenever they had the opportunity if they felt it was a reportable offence. An awful lot of things wrong in that game yesterday but not all of them went against the Roosters. Guess that Trent has just had enough and needed to vent his spleen and it was not as if what he said was not what a lot of others have pinpointed as a massive deficiency in the game. Referees are now unable to make the decisions on the field because they have the bunker at their beck and call. What did Slats say " Like the fact they now let kids uses calculators in a maths exam" meaning they second guess themselves. Just came across as a bit of a whiney bitch that all.
That's a good point. He would sacrifice 10-20K for that too.Good idea by Robinson.. deflect any attention from potential pressure on his position, by blaming the refs.
The old "its not me it's you" approach.
Cecchin was the principal referee but yeah I get your point. No complaints from good old Trent that day.Also he reffed last years semi against us
Imagine if they levied a fine for every inappropriate comment ( NRL perception of the press conference) he uttered yesterdayThat's a good point. He would sacrifice 10-20K for that too.
