Just on the the refs, you cant honestly tell me they have had a good year! lets look at the now infamous manly newcastle match, not one or two very bad decisions but three, all in one game from a full time proffesional ref is appauling.
Two of those decisions went against us and could have easily cost us the game. Firstly, when their winger dropped that ball and was deemed a knock back, in my opinion is the worst decision i have seen this year, secondly when both robertson and matai were taken out in the one play, he could have used the video. I dont need to repeat the third wrong call, but at least we got one to go our way.
It was only a couple of weeks ago that that shane hayne was dropped for an incorrect call that had no influence over the outcome of the match, yet simpkins stays in the top grade after three critical blunders. Robert Finch, please explain.
As for Johns saying he would walk, this has not been proven that he even said it \"and let me make it abundanlty clear that i have no brief saying he would\" (John Fordham daily telegraph pg 68) but still, shame shame shame daily telegraph for rolling out this dribble.
2 weeks is enough, besides matt checcin probably is a f...ing c..t, who knows?? we all agree that you have to respect the ref and his posse.
Finally in this rant i would like to mention that the final score of 14 - 16 to us was the end result of johns missing two goal attempts, which was also left out of the daily telegraphs frist rate jouralism.
