LIVE GAME Round 26 v Cowboys

[EllisFan]

Payten has been on the refs for rorting the lower clubs before, would be nice if he conceded they got the favours tonight.

 

[Mystery]

Had enough ball to win two games … took me back to the Broncos game

And the souths game before that

 

[innsaneink]

Hes had a few opps this year to do this and ignored it....why start now
The fine comes outta his pocket doubt HB support him

Well i was wrong here...good to see him give em.a blast...cronk and Brandy, all the fox commentery agreed with him too

Atkins is up there with Ben Cummins, Harrigan and Hartley

 

[Dr_Ice]

Atkins a shocking referee

Apart from other areas, the three supposedly best referees seem to have the most six agains that I can’t understand what they are for.

 

[weststigerman]

Agree. Mak has the same issues. Club wide we don't have a defensive system, let alone anyone who could coach it.

Taylan was fine in the system.

Maka is 19 so needs time to get there. Needs to play on the wing until he’s ready.

Solo is 22 this year, is worse and probably doesn’t have the agility to be a back in the NRL. I’d let him go.

 

[Dr_Ice]

Cannon fodder in the finals

They are the type of side who will pull off a big win in week 1 of the finals and then get flogged the next

 

[Rock Hopper Steve]

Gawd the bunker and ref were worse than a male skunk tonight, absolute stinkers, talk about extreme home game bias.

 

[achilles]

Way to go Benji, atkins was corrupted to the point of diabolical

Whats new

 

[EllisFan]

On the positive side, Dogs season cooked Roosters season cooked. Not a bad day really.

 

[Toothless Tigers]

Benji is guttless and won't say shit about the ref.

You didn’t listen to the Fox commentary and watch the Press conference then

 

[wstigers11]

Wow gave it to them

 

[EllisFan]

Wow gave it to them

Have noticed A few new refs getting starts lately. Time for Klein, Gerry and Atkins to bugger off to Coles nightpacking.

Yeah all shit

 

[Dr_Ice]

Wow Benji actually questioned the ref decisions at the presser

But, but, but , he wouldn’t

 

[Yossarian]

What did he say ?

Said they were on the wrong end of decisions all night. Criticised the call against Api when Luai “scored”. Basically said what is he supposed to do? Was critical of the decision against Pole - said Cows defender makes a decision on Pole. Criticised us getting penalised for contesting a ball when they did the same thing and no penalty. He looked really pissed off to be honest. More so than I’ve seen him re refereeing. Implied it happens when you’re near the bottom.

Whole thing went for 3 and a half minutes and most was Benji ranting about the calls. Also mentioned Pole playing his 100th. Api was then asked a stupid question which he barely answered.

 

[Yossarian]

I missed the livestream of the presser. Waiting for upload. If we don't get a 50k fine then he hasn't said enough. I'll happily donate to a GoFundMe to help cover the cost.

It’s on the NRlL website

Depends where it is...even thats doubtful

Thanks … just watched it on YouTube…this was a timely public criticism

 

[Rock Hopper Steve]

From a depth point of view Herbert really has a go, strong performances last few weeks.

Bunty too I hope he's kept on for depth, noticed he has a good pass from the middle of the field as well as being a battering ram.

 

[mtd#2]

Typical Tigers night in Townsville.

The refereeing was all over the shop.

So sick of feeling defeated. Even when the boys put in we get screwed.
