Cummins and the Nrl are a joke.

[punchpunchtiger]

What’s our win% with Cummins as ref ? How transparent is it that players like Latrell and teams like the bunnies are getting everything there way !!!
And that egotistical prat Cummins ! Lets the bunnies lay all over us and coat hanger defenceless players. Every possible call Cummins can have an influence on he goes with the bunnies. Never realised how much bias refs can get away with.

I hate blaming refs. I think it’s an easy way out, but last night was a joke. AD cops a shoulder charge, bleeds from the chin. If that isn’t bad enough, Souths still win a challenge after its replayed over and over. It was clear that he didn’t wrap the arms.

Souths get away with this crap every week, holding down in the ruck, not square at marker and not back the 10, but there is no stat for penalties not given against them, that is how they won in 2014, and it is happening again.
But even with the refs onboard they won't beat the good teams this year, so that is something I suppose, but I would love some equality and consistency in the officiating

He is in a stable relationship with latrell

Well it also comes down to the Captain challenging the Ref on there decisions, when JR accidentally kicked the Souths player then Mitchell comes across with a signing arm how is that any different that what Joey did last week apart from it was early in the game. Why did not Mybe also raise it for foul play, he said nothing and took the penalty.

Allowing extra time and looking at the screen that was a joke as well the Ref should of stated time elapsed seemed a long time.

I am not a ref blamer as well but some questionable decisions for sure, although the better team won on the night.

Official, Grub and Latrell facing 2 weeks suspension, a bloody joke

So how is this any different than Joey last week?
Bennett said he never saw it and the Ref was blind.
2 weeks for this and two weeks for the high shot later.
He should be facing 2 charges, and i don't like what Madge said about the incident when we all know its an charge for any contact with the head, either player.

Those things (offside from the kick) are only called when the ref chooses to. I saw at least one when Souths were offside from the kick but ref didn't call it.

 

[Yossarian]

So JR is looking at the same suspension for trying to kick the ball and accidentally making contact as Latrell is for deliberately swinging his arm at the neck/head of an opponent without the ball???

And to think people believe the NRL is biased towards certain clubs...

I think the standard of refereeing in NRL is woeful consistently but I’m not going to use it as an excuse. Successful people often say, “the harder I worked, the luckier I got.” Yeah we get bad calls and I agree that subconsciously it’s easier for a bad ref to favour the favourite but our unforced errors, at critical times, is what kills us week after week after week.
I respect what you are saying but I can’t accept it as the reason we lose consistently - occasionally yes (Klein vs broncos for example) but consistently, no.

That was piss poor and the idiot even looked at the ref giving himself up ?

 

[gallagher]

The ref was bad but we were worse. Who stuffed up from the kick off?
