Old mate tripped over his own boots

Yeah and who was in the bunker ?
Good old Peranara who got axed from onfield duties ..

Says it all really

A former Parra player, and the onfield guy is the son of a former Parra player. Bit smelly.

I see better officiating on a weekly basis watching under 18’s

We had Mrs Badge as the touchie a few weeks back .....we can't throw stones

And what’s the appointment of badge done for us in regards to getting shafted on a regular basis ..
So not only do the players get bombarded with the whistle at training they cop it all game as well ..

Badge is the defensive coach ...isn't that clear to all ....
 
Cam Smith said that the Ref for our game was the best of the weekend.

That says that all to me,

Diabolical.
 
I totally agree with Madge's post match analysis of the refereeing in Sunday's match V Parramatta. The 10 minute sin bin sanction for Blore's minor man handling of the opponent while he's running back to defend is totally and completely out of kilter with the exact same penalty handed to Maika Sivo's offence for his act of foul play, hitting an opponent in the head and finishing his afternoon. THIS WAS AN IMMEDIATE SEND OFF just 4 rounds ago. The inconsistency and lack of parity is mind boggling and it's killing off the teams who are having the greatest struggle to be competitive in matches. Just witness the massive number of blow out scorelines this season. I have watched Rugby League for over 45 years. This game is in real danger of destroying itself through lack of fairness, lack of consistency and lack of competence from officials at all levels.
 
No amount of good preperation for a game and no NRL team can win a game against a biased ref.
In almost every game i can see and i'm left to feel that the bias is very evident against our team.
It was very evident against souths and it was very evident this game against parra
I'm hoping that the Tigers management drop everything and analyze all these games minute by minute and then discuss it with the shameless corrupt NRL.

10 in the bin. weak

You guys think we are inconsistent

Proctor doesn't get binned

Heatherington gets set off

Sivo get 10 minutes in the bin.

All head high tackles - all get ajudicated differently for the same offence.

The Referees are a joke, the bunker is a joke, because they are the referees as well.

Unfortunately the game is turning into a joke.

What do we do about it Russ. All when do is stop watching

That is the problem Tony - if only everyone could stop going/watching for a month - they would change, but that won't happen of course. The teams that don't get rorted (their supporters) wouldn't join anyway. Only thing left is email/write to V'Landys/Abdo and complain about the anomalies - won't happen either.

I guess fans put up with it until they have had enough and then give the game away.

50% of the people watching are always going to be happy. That’s why you won’t get a mass exodus. If we were on the right side of the penalty count and six agains we’d probably be happy right now


Not really, the current rules are a real turn off. I’d take a win, but the games would still be rubbish.

Would prefer the wrestle we used to have?

I think that now we've tried out the 6-again, it may be yes that people preferred the wrestle. At least you can say you've tried both.

You would think with the 2020 6-again, which seemed reasonably successful, they could just pair-back what they give 6-agains for, or make them 3-agains or something less brutal.


My maths may be a little rusty, but how is 3 again an option? I think the underlying motive for the 6 again is to modify the behaviour of players when dealing with refs. To promote authority of refs.

Correct, a 3 again early on in the set wouldn't even get you 1 extra tackle.

I think he means adding on 3 extra tackles to the set which I think would be a better option.

So an infringement on the first tackle you get 3 again so it becomes a 9 tackle set instead of a seven?

Yes, so any infringement makes it a 9 tackle set instead of being determined by how far in the set you are, I suggested it somewhere on here earlier today. Makes the penalties more conisistent.

The more I think about it the more interesting it would be.

For example the first-tackle 6-agains that teams don't mind giving away, they would become 9 tackle sets instead of 7, so a bigger penalty. Indiscretions on tackle 3 would be the same either way - 6-again or extended to 9. Late-set missteps would be a lesser penalty, e.g. being called on tackle 5 would result in 4 tackles left rather than 6.

Nah
It’ll just compound what is already a mess ..
The games already in disarray why make it worse ?

Oh so the current setup is working to your satisfaction?

Yes it might be a bit confusing to police.

Did I say the 6 again is working to my satisfaction?
I’ve hated the 6 again from day one !
Adding an additional 3 plays would be adding to the mess !
The games a complete ? show imo

I’d rather the knobs that run the show have kept onto penalising the wrestle as they set out to do at the start ..

I’ve never followed a code that has bastardised the rules so MUCH as this code .

It’s a farce

You clearly don't follow Union or football?

I think the point is - if they introduced 6-again for a specific reason, and that reason was based heavily in fan reaction to the style of football being played, removing the 6-again just takes us back to where we were. And if the new 6-again is not working, there may be a compromise position.

For the record: I have no qualms if they remove the 6-again rule, I was never particularly upset about "the wrestle" in the first place. I preferred tough tight games of football than this touch-football style we have. I think high-scoring affairs can become a bit of a farce.

As you say, if they are going to keep a 6 again rule of some description, it should be tweaked.

Under the old rules, an infringement on tackle 1 allows you an easy gain of 20-30 mteres via a kick to touch. Now, the defending team only gives up 1 extra tackle and it allows them to set their defensive line - A big advantage to the defending team when compared to the old rules.

I just reckon a 9 tackle set emulates the old penalty better, especially coming out of your red zone.

The bloke has improved to a level I never thought he'd get close to ..he proved me wrong

But if he can't fix this problem .....he will become the focus of many teams attack ...any side with a hooker with a bit if go go from dummy half will try and nail him every time ....

Yeah, I'm in that boat too. Might have called him a plodder a few times :grimacing:

He is a valuable addition, but that part of his game needs work. Hoping it's just a matter of switching off because his match fitness isn't up to scratch yet and not anything else.

He's has never been quick ...and is too easy to stand up in the middle ..we have enough problems across the park defensively

Games a shit show atm

I for one hated that stupid penalty-a-thon when they tried to penalise wrestling out of the game. What did they get, some 35 penalties in one Sharks match? Worse than anything I've seen with the 6-agains or sin bins.

You don't get a player's attention with a penalty, they just dust off and reset for another defensive set. You get some attention with 6-again because they start to get knackered. You get A LOT of attention with a sin bin.

Football bastardises rules as bad as anything NRL has done - VAR has been horrendous, it took them a million years to get goal-line technology and they use a dubious line-drawing mechanism in the Premier League for offsides. All that for what is supposed to be a very simple game.

10 in the bin. weak

You guys think we are inconsistent

Proctor doesn't get binned

Heatherington gets set off

Sivo get 10 minutes in the bin.

All head high tackles - all get ajudicated differently for the same offence.

The Referees are a joke, the bunker is a joke, because they are the referees as well.

Unfortunately the game is turning into a joke.

What do we do about it Russ. All when do is stop watching

That is the problem Tony - if only everyone could stop going/watching for a month - they would change, but that won't happen of course. The teams that don't get rorted (their supporters) wouldn't join anyway. Only thing left is email/write to V'Landys/Abdo and complain about the anomalies - won't happen either.

I guess fans put up with it until they have had enough and then give the game away.

50% of the people watching are always going to be happy. That’s why you won’t get a mass exodus. If we were on the right side of the penalty count and six agains we’d probably be happy right now


Not really, the current rules are a real turn off. I’d take a win, but the games would still be rubbish.

Would prefer the wrestle we used to have?

I think that now we've tried out the 6-again, it may be yes that people preferred the wrestle. At least you can say you've tried both.

You would think with the 2020 6-again, which seemed reasonably successful, they could just pair-back what they give 6-agains for, or make them 3-agains or something less brutal.


My maths may be a little rusty, but how is 3 again an option? I think the underlying motive for the 6 again is to modify the behaviour of players when dealing with refs. To promote authority of refs.

Correct, a 3 again early on in the set wouldn't even get you 1 extra tackle.

I think he means adding on 3 extra tackles to the set which I think would be a better option.

So an infringement on the first tackle you get 3 again so it becomes a 9 tackle set instead of a seven?

Yes, so any infringement makes it a 9 tackle set instead of being determined by how far in the set you are, I suggested it somewhere on here earlier today. Makes the penalties more conisistent.

The more I think about it the more interesting it would be.

For example the first-tackle 6-agains that teams don't mind giving away, they would become 9 tackle sets instead of 7, so a bigger penalty. Indiscretions on tackle 3 would be the same either way - 6-again or extended to 9. Late-set missteps would be a lesser penalty, e.g. being called on tackle 5 would result in 4 tackles left rather than 6.

Nah
It’ll just compound what is already a mess ..
The games already in disarray why make it worse ?

Oh so the current setup is working to your satisfaction?

Yes it might be a bit confusing to police.

Did I say the 6 again is working to my satisfaction?
I’ve hated the 6 again from day one !
Adding an additional 3 plays would be adding to the mess !
The games a complete ? show imo

I’d rather the knobs that run the show have kept onto penalising the wrestle as they set out to do at the start ..

I’ve never followed a code that has bastardised the rules so MUCH as this code .

It’s a farce

You clearly don't follow Union or football?

I think the point is - if they introduced 6-again for a specific reason, and that reason was based heavily in fan reaction to the style of football being played, removing the 6-again just takes us back to where we were. And if the new 6-again is not working, there may be a compromise position.

For the record: I have no qualms if they remove the 6-again rule, I was never particularly upset about "the wrestle" in the first place. I preferred tough tight games of football than this touch-football style we have. I think high-scoring affairs can become a bit of a farce.

Football / soccer yes I follow
Union ..no

As I said if they’d have policed the wrestle from the start with all the penalties they were dishing out and they didn’t succumb to the media we wouldn’t be in this mess now .

Games a shit show atm

I for one hated that stupid penalty-a-thon when they tried to penalise wrestling out of the game. What did they get, some 35 penalties in one Sharks match? Worse than anything I've seen with the 6-agains or sin bins.

You don't get a player's attention with a penalty, they just dust off and reset for another defensive set. You get some attention with 6-again because they start to get knackered. You get A LOT of attention with a sin bin.

Football bastardises rules as bad as anything NRL has done - VAR has been horrendous, it took them a million years to get goal-line technology and they use a dubious line-drawing mechanism in the Premier League for offsides. All that for what is supposed to be a very simple game.

Still not as bad as what’s happened to the NRL ..
It’s become a joke ..

Well you can have your opinion mate. I for one find football reffing to be very hard to tolerate, and they spend an awful amount of time talking about it, esp. penalties and handballs. And in a game won by small score margins.

Union is the worst globally. It all really depends how many rules you have and how difficult it is physically to police them.

How many rules are there in soccer compared to rugby league ..?

There’s is your answer !

How many rule changes has soccer made in the last few years compared to rugby league ?

There is your answer!

The majority of league punters all agree that the 6 again and the total inconsistency of the rules have turned the game to crap ..
And that mate is my opinion .


Cheers ?

Lol. I actually like the 6 again rule and the effect on the game with one caveat, it needs to be consistent. That’s where the issue is currently and when they get it wrong it’s a mess and cruels the game and certainly had a big impact on our game on Sunday.
