This reall needs to be questioned sent further. Players were missing games for touching refs last year. This is clearly a bad look on the game and shows they were defiantly against us this game.

Good point! so nrl like isn’t it... even yesterday’s taboo rule is always old news a few months later
Hmmmmm... I am usually the first to say the refs aren't corrupt. I usually put their mistakes down to human error, poor judgement, laziness, stupidity, lack of awareness etc.
But I can't defend this. I am at a loss. This is disgusting. I hope they come out and explain it because I love my footy and this is hurts.
No matter what reasons the NRL give for this incident, none of them are of a professional nature!
Officials should be made to identify players by number only, as well. Total garbage to expect to be called Sir after approaching a player with "Ay Clinton!" An exception would be the Captain.
Hi fiving, low fiving, secret handshakes, winking, etc. between officials and players is absurd! I'm all for the ban on players touching officials but why the double standards here?
Also bullshit is the coaching some players receive during play! Statements like "you've been offside the last 3 tackles" or "I won't warn you again" is hard to hear when we're behind! The refs counting penalties and discussing on-field performance is another joke!
"The young Manly 7 played really well against the Panthers this evening. His name is Joe Walsh or Joey Walsh. Same name as the Eagles ( Music band) guitarist Joe Walsh who by the way was an extremely great guitarist. Hotel California and his own…"
"Lol if mitch was the 7 at nz they would be 9-0. Tannah boyd was shit at the titans ffs. Last year he was rubbish for nz and metcalf was great fuck me some supporters jack off to early"
"He is a mixture of D Walker and I Yeo. Very high IQ lock that controls the middle of the park. Knows when to run and when to pass. Can cover 9 as well if needed. Best player for us in HM this year for sure."

It certainly makes you wonder........
Nice Professional look from an Un-Professional organisation.
Todd Greenburg will brush it under the carpet and pretend as if he never saw it.

Pretty sure Brisbane got warned 3 times last night that if they gave another penalty someone would be binned.
