Will Manly Dessie be fined as much as Bulldogs Dessie and the voldemonts :)

So I notice there 2 of our former "greats". Have they said anything about any of our games & how we are consistently ripped off? They are part of the media hacks these days.
Not gonna bite the hand that feeds them...hurts tho when they bag us.

This is a very similar penalty count handed out to the Bulldogs by the same referee in the same city in round 1.

I have always thought Cummins is a "home ground special" ref particularly in games well away from Sydney where the big majority of fans are for the home team and he succumbs to crowd pressure.

1 penalty to the away side with 11 seconds to go.

Disgraceful.

That is so true. I commented to hubby about exactly the same thing. Funny isn't it how the home town decisions granted to the same side by the same official were against two sides that were still in the game and the Knights were having trouble putting them away. Not many points in it and first penalties to the away side granted late in the piece in one game and not at all in the other. Means the Knights were perfect for all but a few plays in the game.
Round 1 Count was 5-0; penalty and ruck infringements 7-3 in favour of the home side . Our infringements awarded @61.26;63.55;74.52 when game was gone.....
Round 12 Count was 9-1 penalty and ruck infringements 1-0 in favour of home side inside 10 2-0 favour of away team.

The refs are not as dodgy as some of the touch judges - home town touch judges have decided plenty of games. There use to be one in Brisbane that was a shocker when it came to crucial decisions - he ripped off the Bulldogs on a few occasions with his one eyed calls on off side and forward passes.

Nonsense.
The pressure they are under. One wrong move and they get dumped. Do it again and it’s career ending.

Yes, just like the touch judges that didn't call any of Starling's forward passes against us a few weeks ago!!

I have 2 theories. Maybe the nrl is panicking that all the QLD sides, Newcastle and Canberra suck and might not make the finals so want to give them a leg up. Or maybe too many people had too much money on Manly 13+
