To beat Souths you have to slow down there forwards at the ruck. Pretty obvious to me why they always get more penalties and its nothing to do with bias.
Its hard to make a case that we've been victims of ref bias after 8 years of sustained success.
Refs stuffed up big time with the tackle count, happens every now and again. If I was JT Id be more pissed that Stephen Hawking would have done a better job getting that ball down then Kane Linnett

Also Roy says he cant make a decision if he is unsighted, he can though if he consults his touch-judge.

He is allowed to tackle him - but taking his legs out like that is not a tackle which is where the problem is.stormy wrote:gus saying he had every right to tackle SISA.. gus is full of shit. I think I am watching a replay of 2006 GF but shame hayne has taken over from simplekins.
I've never understood the rule where it's supposedly for safety to not be able to tackle a defender in the air, but it's completely fine to tackle an attacking player in the air. Surely it's either a safety issue or it's not
Great article. No mention of the ridiculous decision to disallow Slater's try thoughItzbek the Purple wrote:Interesting quote in the Roy Masters piece in the fairfax Media "The last eight times Hayne has refereed Souths, the Rabbitohs won the penalty count seven times (59-38)."

Sorry mate, but imo that's rubbish - no player deserves it. Heckle/Boo on the field all you like, but getting in blokes faces and giving it to them after the game is poor. I'd be disappointed if it was Storm fans doing it, and you know as well as I do that if it happened to any of our players we'd be blowing up deluxe because it's completely inappropriate.LESStar58 wrote:Poor form by the NRL but Tate deserves it. He's a grade-A *lima lima lima duck*.
I agree wholeheartedly, but I'd have to think about it if it was Paul Gallen.steaming stormer wrote:dLESStar58 wrote:Poor form by the NRL but Tate deserves it. He's a grade-A *lima lima lima duck*.

Our players have had to put up with some vile abuse over the last few years.I witnessed this here in sadelaide the other year when the Storm`s coach pulled up at the ground.The rabid dog supporters were spewing filth at my CHAMPION TEAM. I even reminded them that whatever they said about my team they can apply to their own as the dogs were the original cap cheats.I told them they were worse off as they had anus as a captain.

You'd be surprised at the number of Bullfilth "fans" who plead ignorance on 2002...stormy wrote:Our players have had to put up with some vile abuse over the last few years.I witnessed this here in sadelaide the other year when the Storm`s coach pulled up at the ground.The rabid dog supporters were spewing filth at my CHAMPION TEAM.

Does anyone know if the finals shorts will go on sale? I mean with the Hostplus logos on them. They looked pretty nice to be honest, the regular season shorts looked too plain to be worth buying
The NRL is amateur hour. And it needs to pick up its game real quick. This David Smith clown should be sent back to England before he lima lima lima duck it beyond repair.
Surely we have an Aussie or Kiwi who can lead our game? And I don't mean Todd Greenberg- he's just another shifty bastard who'll serve his own interests (and bulldogs) first.
