Referee under pressure for the Parra Chooks game - Lurker

Posted by Wile E. Coyote on May 1, 2017 at 12:17pm
4Archer has target on his backRoosters coach Trent Robinson will be making the short walk across the Allianz Stadium car park to NRL headquarters this week for a face-to-face discussion with referees boss Tony Archer.Last Monday I mentioned how the Roosters had gone two games receiving just three penalties - a remarkably harsh stance by the referees against the Chooks.Predictably, the Roosters then won the penalties 9-5 the next day against the Dragons - and won the match.But yesterday, the Roosters were again caned 7-2 in Auckland as they fell to a controversial loss to the Warriors.Two crucial calls - the sin-binning of winger Daniel Tupou and the offside penalty against Mitchell Pearce that decided the game - had the Roosters camp seething.Oh to be a fly on the wall when Robinson vents his frustrations to the under-pressure referees boss.

    It sounds like the Lurker is a Roosters supporter.

    Just hope his little visit to the NRL headquarters (with his brown paper bag) doesn't have detrimental side affects for the upcoming game between Roosters & Eels! He should really wait until after the Eels clash and then he can visit the NRL all he likes.

    It will have an effect, and let's see who the ref is...Klein? Perenara..?

    EVERYONE except for some Eels supporters hate Parramatta

    Not sure what's happened of late. I actually thought for the 1st month of footy the refs weren't going to badly. The last 4 weeks have been terrible.

    GET RID OF THE BUNKER

    My money is on Cummins.

    Why don't they give Kasey Badger and Belinda Sleeman a run with the whistle?

    We will get ripped off in that game for sure, got to look after uncle nicks roosters. What a joke. Brad should target the refs to. Oh that's right he will get fined not Robinson though

    I thought that the refereeing in our cows game was quite good? There didn't seem to be many ruck penalties and the ref let the game flow.

      Best reffing performance for Parra I've ever seen. The refs were very fair and pretty much faultless.
