Post-Game Discussion Eels v Manly [Round 11, 2022]

[WiseyEagle]

There was absolutely NOTHING wrong with that tackle over the side line!!!

 

[Rafferty]

Earlier this year after we copped an absolute hiding in the penalty count from this same dickhead, Dessie said something like, "Benny Cummins is a better referee than that." I hope Des takes the opportunity to take that back. Nine ****ing penalties to two, and those two were given to us by the bunker. And that last forward pass from the Eels that was let go, on top of Tippytoes being penalised for an excellent tackle (as was Aloiai earlier on), just killed us.

Let fly, Des, and pay the $10K yourself.

Not happening if Des has to pay

How many fkn offloads did we let happen ffs, there's no attempt to lock up the ball carrying arm, I'm over it

22-5 offloads. And half of those would’ve been Maddison.

 

[ABTK]

How many late tackle penalties were there?

Just seemed very inconsistent

And there we have it, @lsz. It's not so much what the ref called, it's what he didn't call when he obviously should've...

 

[QueefRichards]

Cherry should have passed on the 2nd last tackle rather than go himself, looked like an overlap

Rarely has the composure to make the right decision at critical moments unless there is a field goal begging

 

[Highflier]

I have to say I’m gutted foward passes let go corrupt interpretation of penalties and bone head interference by that disgraceful bunker
Corrupt and I fuking hate it
And fuk u Cummins u crooked ****

 

[krusty]

I do not believe refs cheat but there was a lack of consistency in the rules

But after watching that you must believe it now surely?

 

[wedgetail eagle]

The most one-sided referring performance I think that I have ever seen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Penalties 9 - 2 to Parra
Set restarts 2 - 0 to Parra
We were never going to win that game.

Plus, Eels got penalties at the most opportune moments. Stuck in their quarter, or on Manly’s line. Timing is everything. I’m proper wild about it.

 

[Red Pill]

The footy gods and the ref have forsaken us

 

[Daddycool]

Really proud of the effort but Cummins was the difference between the two sides. He’s a disgrace. I just hope Turbo is ok.

 

[joeboy]

Some terrible calls

But we are a
Clueless team, so much dumb. Same players every week committing astoundingly stupid plays and decisions. Just no awareness of what the game situation calls for and how to execute it.


Bad options, not locking up the ball, falling of tackles,, poor discipline.

We baked the **** cake, Cummings Just iced it with his ineptitude.

Parts of our game were good, but the dumbness negates nearly all good we do.

We lost Tom too.

Not Much to be happy about

Several of our players need to be jettisoned with extreme predjudice

 

[Son of Manly Beach]

Most dishonest refereeing I’ve ever seen
Definitely an agenda against manly

 

[joeboy]

If des doesn’t have his say in the presser nothing has a chance of changing

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

If des doesn’t have his say in the presser nothing has a chance of changing

Even if he does, it'll just be seen as a "Manly whinge".

 

[Nordburg]

Sipley was great the first 21 minutes and was not seen again,unless he was injured,Des needs to be questioned about this

 

[davohan123]

Keepie dumb dumb decision

Again costs us badly.

Marty no much better first half penalty lead to a try.

In saying all that Cummins never gave us a chance tonight.

Haumole I can see being cited and off for a few weeks and turbo gone to.

We should of won that.

 

[lsz]

But after watching that you must believe it now surely?

Nope

I think refs are humans and Can make mistakes. Is there a mass conspiracy against teams and clubs? Man the NRL can not organise a chook raffle let alone a conspiracy

Take the pen against Tippy then the No foul against Marty T - they should have been the other way around…which is what I mean

 

[Karshy]

If Des doesnt front up 10k tonight im joining the fire Des crew.

 

[HoldenV8]

So effing pi$$ed right now......

Can we all chip in for the $10k fine??

 

[Budgie]

I've always been a bit cynical about fans blaming the refs, but that game tonight was deadset fixed.
