Ripped off by Cummins again

[[email protected]]

How can the NRL be so blind look at the record referee Ben Cummins has with Manly games he is biased beyond belief and always has a significant impact on our games with his decisions. I dread every game he is in charge of he is a disgrace he needs to be relieved of his duties immediately.

He and his Bunker mates must be doing very nicely financially from the gambling powerbrokers who now run the NRL.
I'm just about over RL.

Why didn’t the bunker pick up that Nathan Brown was offside in that grubber kick

What about the forward pass. What a joke

I was up at Newcastle for our game against the Knights last year and he completely rode them to victory that day. Somehow tonight he has managed to rip us off even harder. Seriously concerning that this bloke has been reffing for over 15 years now and has just gotten worse and worse over the years, yet is still seen as one of the top refs in a very very bad bunch of them

Look - I HATE blaming a ref
I had 25 calls from different mates who hate Manly after that game, who said it was the most 1 sided referring they ever seen- not the penalty count, but the general decisions over the 80 minutes to decide the outcome

Same. Lots of unbiased league fans texting to say it was a rort. Usually it’s just the club supporters that notice the 50/50 calls. When they’re noticed by the casual observer, something is dreadfully wrong.

yet we have so called "supporters" on here blaming some players for losing the game, knowing the ref had a bearing on the outcome..

Lmao....we have pulled out the "true supporters" tag again.

Is it possible that us so called "supporters" can be critical of both the referee and also some of our players individual performances.

 

[StuBoot]

The powers that be will say that the penalties were justified whilst neglecting the fact that the penalties you don't get are just as important.

 

[Wyllie Eagle]

Blatant bias. Sheer incompetence at best. Des did well keeping it civil at the presser.

critical , yes, but don't blame them for the loss, parra penalties were meant to get them out of their 20 mtr area, we didn't get any near our 20, that loss sits wholly and squarely on the ref..!

 

[wedgetail eagle]

I normally have a whinge about the refs & forget about it. But this’s something else. There wasn’t the traditional end of game even-up penalties, either.
Cummins will be a hot favourite in the running for the ‘Shayne Hayne 2013 GF’ award.

pretty sure Des will take it further tomorrow, doesn't like spending his money..🙂

I'm more loling at you and pulling the "supporters " line.

It doesn't get any more Silvertails after a loss than someone dragging that one up.

loling all you want, can't be a supporter and not support the boy's knowing they were robbed...

 

[sheridanstand78]

Cummings has form against us. Too many times I have seen him referee us and ignore our opponents. It will be brushed off as oh well its only Manly. It is a pity cause tonight I saw real effort from our boys and this clown aided and abetted the worms win tonight!

Who is not supporting the boys ?

I thought we were dudded a few times, but we also need better discipline.
I don't blame Keppie for the loss but if he didn't lift in the tackle the ref couldn't have binned him (pretty sure Wighton did a very similar one recently, got suspended but wasn't binned during the game)
We would have beaten both Souths and Eels without those loose moments, need to be better.
