Refs are having a big call in all our loses.

[Spud_Murphy]

I won’t be watching any games until something is done to stop referees being so one sided, which means I’ll probably never get to see another game ever again! And I really don’t care. I’ll come on here for a chat or whatever but as far as following the game goes, I’m done.

I just can’t cop it anymore. It’s hard enough for the guys to compete each week without the extra burden of ref bias against you. I don’t think we’ve had a fair go all year yet. It was only dogged determination that got us thru the first 5 rounds but now you can see the imbalance of ref decisions has taken its toll.

I know it’s not just our team being dudded all the time. I won’t even be watching other games because of it either, certainly not any games that the Broncos are involved in - it just makes me livid.

All I want is a fair comp and a chance for every team to have a tilt at the premiership, especially mine, but it’s not going to happen and I just can’t follow such a rigged sporting comp anymore no matter how much and how long rugby league has been part of my life.

The worst thing about all this is that the ref bias for certain teams and against certain teams is so bleeding obvious! Everyone can see, but no one does anything about it and it just continues from week to week until ours and a few other teams will end up being squashed into oblivion, once again.

The current 2018 refereeing is killing the enjoyment of rugby league for most followers. You never know how the referees are going to react and badly spoil the outcomes of many matches..

We have to be careful here as it's so easy to look at the refs' performances through black and gold eyes. However, having said that and trying to look at it impartially, I think we have been hard done by. It's obvious that, whether deliberately or not, the refs favour the 'glamour' sides and are tougher on the unglamorous sides such as us. Refereeing decisions should not rule teams totally out of the contest and that is what happened last night. Yes, we were poor and the Warriors deserved to win, but the officiating meant that we had no chance to win.

The problem with the ‘glamour club’ argument is the the Rorters are one of the most heavily penalised teams in the comp.

But Broncos and storm for sure - for many years!!

It is not the number of penalties - it is when and where they are given that matters.

We don't have the best defense… We scrambled well... But that's not good defense, that's hectic chaos and something that's not able to be sustained for a season.

We don't dominate in defense, we rarely push attacking opposition's back, we rarely get them on the deck let alone on their back... It where the ruck is lost... It happened against the Knights, again last week but not as bad... Big time again tonite

So true

So long as you are aware of the likely irony that there would be some supporters at every club right now, except maybe the Dragons, complaining about ref bias.

Dogs fans reckon refs are biased, as if Dogs never had any helpful runs into the finals. Never mind their salary cap cheating and severely backloaded contracts crippling their team.

Now this i agree with.

Need to hit and stick, dominate the ruck.
