On field decisions

Going to bed.Score QLD 16 - NSW 2.When our codes biggest spectacle is held for ransom by on field desicions by adjudicators who penalise a team for transgressions they would do on a normal weekly basis, there is seriously something wrong.Penalty count 4 -1 allows QLD to score two tries from poor decisions.Channel 9 just lost another veiwer for the night.

  • It's just not cricket
  • Totally agree, I've seen head highs (Dugan copped a hand across the mouth big time) chicken wings, Hoppa did not knock on, if you look at the replay, the ball was raked in a three man tackle.. Inside the 5 (never mind the ten) a few times.. No Penalties. We are getting every rule in the book thrown at us nit pickingly!! Over this unfair shit in the NRL
    • Yeh that was shocker. After all the relieving penalties they got for us supposedly being in the 10 then Sutton swallows the whistle on that call. What piece of paradisital poo.
  • It gets worse. Getting blown away now. Embarrassing.
  • Hahaha the blues are an embarrassment. They aren't in the maroons league.
  • LOL I'm a NSW man thru and thru but seriously you have to be kidding the blues side is sub par compared to these dirty toads, their bloody reserves are making a joke out of our so called hard men!
    • What you have to realise about footy, or any team sport for that matter, is the importance of momentum.  Qld got it thanks to being awarded unnecessary penalties in the first half.

      Yes, it's a blow out, but Qld scored their first half points on the back of penalties - all of one (the horrific Merrin tackle) silly and undeserved.

      Even Mick Ennis said to Sutton that "he was getting overawed by the crowd".  And he was right.  The refs made an erroneous call against Qld in the first few minutes re Gagai's 'knock on' (which clearly went backwards) and spent the next 35 minutes trying to make up for it.

      It was a completely unprofessional and inept display from the refs and that's what caused the blow out.  Had the game been closer at half time, irrespective of the final result, I think everyone (the two-headed, failed abortions that are Qld'ers included) would have been happier.

  • The game was over in the first half thanks to the refs. Not saying NSW should have or could have won but when there is a lopsided penalty count, farcical one sided calls, it's SOO and it's being played in Brisbane. QLD don't need any leg ups, so when they get all those calls it's game over. Waste of time.
  • Wow, they are making the division 5 punchbowl under nines team look like worldbeaters.
  • Getting blown away .. By the refs whistle..
