We are deservedly angry... lets turn frustration into action!

Lets keep this cool headed, and actually do something about this situation....

We need to go over the rule book on captains challenges with a fine tooth comb, then do the same with the game footage.

Before we go off half ready, compile a decent report on the matter, as irrefutable as possible, compose a package that can easily be signed outlining our frustrations with the situation.

Then comes the part of patience.... we need to have our ducks in a row. Forwarding these signed packages as individuals not only to Sport Integrity Australia to possibly force an external audit of the situation, though also to all levels of the media, media personalities, because having the situation blow up in the public eye, but also by an independent 3rd party, will definitely get the attention of the league itself.

As angry as I am, as much as I wish to rant on here with you all, that is just unproductive use of energy. Instead of kicking each others teeth in, in a fog of rage, maybe we could bond on this one, achieve something greater than the pack of muppets driving the club..... and feed it to the NRL itself.
 
Nothing will happen. From all reports, the club hasn’t even said anything. It’ll just sting for a few days, maybe a week. Then it will be on to next week.
 
Real good performance today. Needed two tries in the last five and got them. It feels like a win tbh cause I kinda want the spoon, and we're one step closer to that and we showed some genuine flair today to win. Doueihi and Laurie huge today.
 
They're not going to change the 2 points, don't wind yourselves up.

The coaches need to remind the players all week that they were robbed of a genuine win, rub dencorub into their undies, put bull ants in their socks, put a bounty on Adam Reynolds head and tell them to keep passing the ball because they were watchable today for the first time since Madgegate.
 
Told you no show at grounds by supporters when Klien has anything to do with us ...wilbe hard on our players but league needs a big message thistime
 
From what I've seen and read you can not make a captain's challenge on something no referee ruling was even made on.

As soon as Laurie was touched by the opposition player the game was over.

Everyone *EVERYONE* knows it was the wrong call on two fronts (wasn't even an escort) and the nrl should reverse the result and award the two points to the tigers.

For those who scoff and say it'll never happen, they have taken half a season's points off Melbourne, stripped them of 2 premierships, taken 37 points off Canterbury in 2002, penalised Cronulla and I think Parramatta similarly as well in the past.

This is only 2 points and is simply the right thing to do.

I think the problem with reversing the decision is the can of worms it could open.

I reckon the best we can hope to see is some refs being punted.

You are spot on but it won’t happen
