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

I have had issues with the 6 agains as well. Any thoughts about a better way to handle the infringements around the circumstances to address the issue around slowing the play the ball and offside issues?
I'm sure there have always been infringements in the game but in the end it sorts itself out without the ridiculous 'repeat set' nonsense. Just let the game flow and the players will sort it out against each other.
Yep bring back the biff.
I would absolutely watch that....hell i'd be a paid subscriber. It would be a wtf bloodsport.....There's a dollar in this for the right guy.
Upskill Wiz, you got this
That's exactly what needs to happen Wiz but it seems most fans are too caught up with NRL narratives to put some time into this.
I think we would be amazed at how obviously corrupt the NRL refs and game is, if this is done for an entire round of footy.
I have no idea even what the set restart is for it's a complete gamble if you get them or not the tackles all look the same from both sides it's a farce and should scraped
I don't know if consistent errors or perceived referree bias are reviewed. Players if they don't perform are constantly considerd to earn their place.Does the same apply to referees?
The 6 agains were purely introduced to allow the NRL to have a bigger say in results , as Parramatta fans we have nothing to bitch about when you look at all the years we were in the top tier when it came to receiving 6 agains .
You would think Clubs who have legitimate issues have power to change or improve obvious stresses in the game?
Agreed Frankie we've had our fair share in the good years.
The key here is we've dropped our arses so quickly we are now at the mercy of them even though I think what ills our side can be controlled but we seemingly continue doing the samething.
