A fed-up Graham Annesley has admitted the quality of refereeing in the NRL is not up to standard but there isn’t enough experience in the ranks to replace underperforming officials.
In his most scathing round review of the season, Annesley revealed he is so worried about the errors made over the last two weeks that he arranged a meeting with referees boss Bernard Sutton specifically to deal with the mistakes.
Despite his frustration, Annesley, the NRL’s head of football, won’t be addressing his concerns with State of Origin referees Ashley Klein and Gerard Sutton ahead of Wednesday night’s decider in Sydney.
