This is not tigers season but the NRL overall. Try and justify your vote on how u enjoyed the new rules, game experience, officiating etc.


Edit- apologies for the layout, as soon as i hit post it mixed all the numbers
 
I gave it a 2 if souffs had won yesterday it would have got a 1.Administration and Referees are destroying the game i love
 
One of the least entertaining seasons ever! Was saved by a good finals series because the refs massively pulled back on the six agains and started giving more penalties, most of the regular seasons were just blowouts with games being decided in the first 25 minutes

Scrap the 6 agains

Think of how good the 2020 season started

That match between storm and roosters was one of tbe best rugby league games ive ever watched

Its night and day
 
Very very predictable results...im regularly got 7/8 in tipping.

Usually only one or two decent games per week

Our efforts were dog shit =. 3/10 overall

I think this sums it up pretty well, finals series shows that more tries doesn't mean a better game.

This year was boring to say the least, majority of the close games were from poor teams. Usual suspects winning every week.

Stop penalising every single minor detail, have the balls to call out the milking/diving/whinging as the BS it is live in game and that will deliver the right type of faster game the NRL wants so bad.
 
10 - we were supposed to get the wooden spoon again. Go Weststigers! Sorry, skim reading didn’t work.

I will applaud the first referee in the NRL who has the balls to penalise a player milking for a penalty.I have seen it in junior football and it didnt happen again in the game,when i asked the ref after the game why he did it he said the player was notorious for doing it and he knew he was milking at the time.
That is what we need at the highest level of the game
 
Terrible year, blow out after blow out, terrible rule interpretations, inconsistencies week I and week out by the refs and the review board. Struggled to watch games, even tigers games. I went from a fan that loved my footy to a fan that would take a better offer on game day if it presented itself

Of course supporting a team like the Tigers probably clouded my judgment as for me personally it was the the most abysmal year in living memory and I go back to the early sixties.

Sadly I don’t see anything that is going to change soon
 
The main problem this season had was that there was a clear divide between the top teams and everyone else. The rules didn’t help as it limited the opportunities for teams to try and get back into a match.

The 6 again rule just needs to be tweaked by having any 6 again on tackle 1 or inside your own 30m area a penalty.

Not sure how they even the comp up in terms of teams being more balanced without a complete overhaul for the salary cap system. Which the players union is against
 
First half of the season was a joke - ridiculous rule changes destroyed games with players in the bin and rules impossible to abide by in a collision sport. Last night's game pretty much back to where the game was last year. The NRL need a review on their ability to make decisions that impact positively on the game because they screwed up this year.
 
One of the worst seasons i can remember. The gap between the top teams and the rest is wider than ever with no solution in sight. Not just myself but others i know turned off the footy or didn't even bother watching games this year where in the past they didn't miss one. The NRL will talk it up, but i honestly think the product itself is in serious trouble unless some common sense prevails.
 
rules changed over the season, different rules for start, middle, finals and grand final. How do any team recruit when there are 3 sets of rules in a season?

6 again is poor and just gets rorted. Crusher is sensible but also rorted

Teams mis matched, teams get a roll on and the contest is done. they need to penalise set restarts on tackle 1 or 2 and on your own line.

The game is boring and relies on errors and kicking to win. the exact opposite of what anyone wants

worst season I have ever seen. Completely lost interest after about round 8. you knew who would be in the finals by then.
 
They should have called this years' first grade competition the "Knock Out " Cup. So many players wer hitting the deck and feigning injuries in turn for penalties. The referees, fully utilising the six again rule, did their best to knock out any enthusiasm the fans may have had for interesting matches.
 
Gave it a 2, would have been a 1, but this is the worst season ever in the NRL in relation to blowouts.

41 games winning by 20+
20 games winning by 30+
13 games winning by 40+
2 games winning by 50+
1 game 60+

and then the finals 2 20+ win, 1 30+ win
 
Rubbish from beginning to the end.
Rubbish rule changes, rubbish refereeing, rubbish standard of football.
The fact that we knew who the to six were going to be from about 6 rounds in tells the tale.
Really getting turned off the game.
 
Probably our worst year since 2015. Not a lot to get excited about. The odd game where we showed heart that sucked people in to believe that things were finally turning around. Only to come out the next week and have our pants pulled down.
