Damn Referees

[Ralphie]

The St Choke 1st try came in the set of six after Bailey was penalised and I still cant work out what the penalty was for. The 2nd penalty goal where Ballin was penalised for a flop was absolute BS.

I'm so disillusioned with the refereeing.

I'm so proud of the first half effort, I have tears in my eyes!!!!

 

[bob dylan]

Was Hornby onside for that try.

They never checked that and I have my doubts.

 

[Nthn NSW]

3 crowd penalties in first half.

 

[bob dylan]

Referee's are the ones punting on the game, not the players.

 

[Jethro]

Was Hornby onside for that try.

They never checked that and I have my doubts.

That's the question that I asked in the "Half Time" thread. I'm sure that he was about a metre to a metre and a half in front of the kicker.

 

[bob dylan]

And that Cooper try was off a forward pass.

 

[Nthn NSW]

And that Cooper try was off a forward pass.

Agreed!!!!!!!!!

 

[Jethro]

The game shouldn't be called Rugby League. It should be called Referee League.

 

[Nthn NSW]

The touchie that got Watmough binned looked like a Bulldog fan...

 

[Ralphie]

St Chokes 2nd & 3rd tries were off forward passes. I'm so sick of it and I'm so proud of the effort today.

My wish now is that St Choke don't even make the GF.

They now become my 2nd most hated team. The purple filth will always fill the No 1 spot.

All of the ir first 14 points came after a penalty

 

[Dan]

Blame our discipline not the refs

the penalty was soft for a hand on the ball.

However the dragons were offside most of the game

 

[Fluffy]

Dont know what discipline problem Ballin had

 

[castle eagle]

i think the dragqueens will have trouble winning in 2 weeks unless they preform a hell of a lot better- or they get the same ref's again

You're entitled to your opinion, but you are just plain wrong on this one.

 

[Dan]

As you are yours.

The penalty count was like that because of stupid  ity on our behalf and often. We have been doing it all year.
Sure there were a few penalties that were dodgy calls but by and large we cost ourselves.

You can't honestly be that blind to think the refs cost us that game.

Watmough had a brain explosion with knees in hornby. We laid all over tackles and played at the ball often.

 

[Ralphie]

I don't think 4 of the penalties were warranted, but that's life. If I was St Choke I would be seriously worried by the stats.

Canberra will beat the Pussycats and then beat the Chokers. Chooks will beat the other pussycats and then beat the NRL pets. Canberra V Chooks grand final for mine, and I don't care which one of those wins.

 

[bob dylan]

Funny how everyone is wrapping the chooks, they scrape home by one point.

If they lost they would be out.

 

[ayjay007]

We can't really go blaming the refs.The rorters won only 3 out of the 26 penalty counts in the comp proper,and look where they are!We are our own worst enemies.BTW,I think Balin (was it Matt-for the hit on "dracula" soward) could be in trouble too!That would be 3 top line players on suspension.Not a good look!
