WELL PLAYED BOYS. CANT HELP THE REF

Posted by Kerry George on July 28, 2018 at 9:22pm

Our boys played well tonight. Particularly Tim Mannah, Jarryd Hayne and Clint Guthretson.

You can't win a match this season without the penalties that count. I have watched the replay and the Cory Norman tackle is not one that you would give 10 in the bin for despite the warning. If he had come of his goal line early then I would not object to the penalty.

The last penalty when Gagai spilt the ball and we were about to continue play with a tap but was overturned by someone allegedly held off the ball tipifys the night we had.

Just as well we are out of the running. I would have hated that match to be the one to put us out of contention.

It was not the penalties we conceded but the ones we did not get. Without penalties you don't get field position.

  Thats not what is being said. Strange reaction you have for a supporter.

    Rocky never a week passes when eels fans dont blame the refs, its called making excuses for failure and mediocrity, nothing less.

Parra have this rubbish stigma associated with themselves. At 20-6 we knew they would lose, they thought they would lose, Souths knew Parra would lose and the refs knew that Parra would lose. This definitely assists the refs with making calls in favour of Souths because everyone knows Parra would lose. Simple.

we all want to blame ref. Howcome BA is not complaining. Howcome no one writes about it internet.
Well played boys pfft…
We are the most indiscipline team in NRL.
Moses should be permanently sacked from the eels and so is BA and the whole coaching staff.
We sucked. Our defence is a sh*&thole.
South were ripping on to us with big forwards. We are a disgrace...

    One minute you are into supporters for questioning for getting into the refs then demand BA does the same. WTF
