Set Restarts + Are Ruining the Game

I'm sure not everyone will agree but in my personal opinion Set Restarts in particular are destroying the game and allowing the referee to basically control the outcome of games. Combine the Set Restarts with diabolical refereeing and bunker calls then the whole fairness of Rugby League has long gone. Seriously today's game was disgraceful refereeing ( yes the Eels made some poor mistakes and the younger players are still learning) but a 10-1 penalty count and not 1 repeat set 🤣. This seems to be a continual report on 85% of refereeing of the Eels games. In my opinion the Eels hierarchy need to speak up about the appalling referee and bunker calls. It's not only the Eels coping it but it seems the lower placed teams get the raw end of the stick. Ricky Stuart isn't afraid of speaking up when things go against his team with refs. About time the Eels did the same or they'll continue to be the NRL doormat team

        • Though we also had similar issue last year. It has only been last month or so where we drop off on the back end, before we used to be better 2nd half team.

        • If he had NFI like you imply JR has NFI as he would have been part of the hiring process.He wasn't sacked he walked I was told as much form my inside guy at the hurricanes.

      • Same here Coryn. Friends that work for the org have said numerous things and shambles is the most polite word used.

        Ive mentioned things along these lines before and have been labelled a 'hater' lol

        • He's worked for a Japanese rugby team . Crusaders and nz rugby 7s hardly anything to write home about. If he was so good he would of been snapped up by a better run nrl or rugby team. 

          Yes we need better administrators but blair mills is not the rob Rowland smith's of the world 😆 

          • I'll say onething not anyone gets to work for the Crusaders there rugby unions version of the Melbourne Storm they don't take on people who don't know what there doing.Mills is highly regarded in S & C circles here in NZ.

            • Brad Arthur was highly regarded as was Stephen Kearney 🤣

              • Arthur was and is a better coach than Kearney.

            • Fair enough 

        • Give us example of what is shambles, enough for Mills to want out? Not saying you are lying just want clarification.

"You forgot that we don't start well either. They were 12 up after 7 minutes and scored 18 in the last 8 minutes.
We tend to go alright for 40 minutes somewhere in the middle of the match.
Absolute rubbish."
