Going on from the bunkers bullshit when we played the rabbits last Friday night, I just witnessed another series of refereeing bullshit leading to the Raiders scoring their first try that never was one. How the fuck was that a penalty to the Raiders when the Roosters were smashing and hemming in the Raiders near the Raiders 10 meter line?? From there, the Raiders received a few leg ins until Ropana was awarded a most bullshit try.... "insufficient evidence" says the bunker... Fuck me dead. Seriously, the offerings and temptation to give up loving Rugby League comes often these days but I've yet to give up.  Our game is becoming more and more contrived.

  • Hopeless Henry is ruining this game, he gets influenced by the crowd
    • True, but the Bunker is back in Moore Park, that's unless it was recently moved to Kings Cross and something is happening below the desk with bunker refs no longer capable of staying focused on their paid job. 

    • Maybe we need to persuade them with some brown paper bags
  • Wouldn't feed the refs
  • He gets influenced by those who employ him, like all the refs do.

    Who is the next NRL fairytale?

  • The refs random momentum shifting penalties against the flow of the game are killing this great sport. The kick for touch needs to be replaced by a six again tap on the spot to cover for the lack of decent referees coming through with any understanding for the flow of a game.
    • Agreed

    • I'd say organised crime is more likely the problem than the betting agencies. But I refuse to believe that without proof. But what I do have proof of is refs lacking the ability to ref to the flow of the game. My answer to the lack of referee ability is to scrap the kick for touch on minor infringements.
    • Why should they ref to flow of game. Rules are rules. If rule is in place call it if iteam breaks the rule. That has been the basis of all sports. Have you heard any other sport talk about flow of game and referee?. Not really cause most sports have a rule book they enforce instead letting things slide cause flow of game.
      Problem is refs feel they going with flow of game or correcting flow of game when favourite team losing causing these stupid decisions.
