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

Absolutely. No sport to my knowledge comes close to the NRL in constantly changing.
Less is better than more Eddie and Cappy, so unfortunately one final set? Lol
We've been in and out of games, but the amount of calls that goes against us. I cannot sit there and watch our team get bullied by the officals, we need our CEO and board to get on top of this and ask why are calls going against us, the knock ons last week and now this week with the non-stop six agains its becomming a hard watch.
Agree... absolute dog shit rule. The sporting equivalent of a corporate blank cheque, signed and with no audit procedures.
Cheque's will be gone by 2030 Will......audit procedures not so easy .....we need a benevolent dictator....hmmm!
Benevolent dictators are only benevolent to certain interests.
I thought that one would attract you Tad.
Please tell me who is not interested in benficial interests.....Maybe the socialists countries "by the people for the people" how are they looking lately? Of course at the other end of the spectrum we have Trump.
Looks like we are not backing too many winners Tad....I sit marginally on the right of centre and there aint much there either. Old fashioned Labour is Albo, he is probably the most trustworthy in that he is fundamentally transparent.
What aspects of Socialism are you against Poppa. Health care, Free education, Housing, Public transport, Public roads, Bridges.Pensions for the aged and disabled, council services, law enforcement, and defence. I think we would do well with private ownership of all these community interests with a benevolent oligarchy.
Blame V'landys and abdo. These two are rotten to the core. They have their favourites and parramatta ain't one of them.
V'Landys bought to you by the super-clean not-corruption-infested-at-all "sport" of horse racing....The Land Where Gambling is King and "connections" are everything
Vlandys is well comfortable turning our sport into an entertainment product. They invited a fox into the NRL henhouse
He thinks we will watch no matter what. Is he right?
