He wasn't happy, and his last comment as he was getting up, no questions on the officiating?....
Interesting lol

There were some average moments but we lost this one ourselves, we had plenty of opportunities and made plenty of errors.
He should have mentioned the refs weeks ago when Gough smashed us against tigers
Yep absolutely should've
Smart snide comment by Ryles! can't fine him for that either.
Wished he could've said same about tigers and the six again ridiculous ness of storm game too. Not the reason we lost but it has to be said.
Don't think this was the right game to make that statement especially when the last couple weeks he has said that eels can't blame the refs. Tigers game was the one to do it. Not this one when we dropped the ball so much and gave away stupid escort penalties. Yes the ruck was slow and questionable penalty try but we played shit
I have to agree with all of that EA
Yep like simply put it this way. Not at a single point during the game did I feel we were winning the game regardless of the ref. Just knew we would conceed a soft try or drop the ball
Yer, same here mate, never felt confidence. Our defence is just a shambles!
He obviously doesn't want to get fined $10k . His salary is more important than speaking up against obvious continual incompetence in refereeing Eels matches. Despite the fact the refereeing was sub par, the Eels did have their chances but stuffed them up with poor decisions
When there is blatant things like no 8 point try when Penisini hit high as scoring a try, the penalty for attacking kicker that even Ennis couldn't believe and the difference in ruck speed each team was allowed I think Ryles should be questioning the ref win or lose.
But he needs to learn the game, and ask a reporter off record before the press conference to bring it up. Maybe if it was bought up he was going to reference things like it hasn't changed since the tigers game when a ref got dropped only to return to referee the Parra game.
If he just brings up ref alone it is useless as we were our own worst enemy but framing it as hard enough to win with a young side, the speed of game and fatigue but then fighting for equal share of 50/50s and the blatant wrong calls additing fatigue makes it impossible.
