LIVE GAME Round 9 vs. Bulldogs

[Tiger_Yoshi]

Papalii 4 runs for 26 meters….rubbish

 

[TV Ted Ellery]

We could be without Seyfarth and Sezer next week. Fainu has been bog average at hooker but I'd like to see him get a run at halfback if Sezer is suspended.

 

[Stevec]

Not blamed ref this year but Casey Badger reffing a debacle ! We win all our Capt challenges proof her bias she calls lost ball on suspicion and 11 vs 13 absolute rubbish
To Annessley and co this officiating causing me and many to lose interest in THE NRL

 

[Droppy05]

Another spoon coming. Completes the set.

Cop a fine benjin and ask for an investigation

I agree we are ill disciplined. But it's obvioud other teams do the same I'll discipline a lot yet only get penalised half the time. That's the issue. It is physically impossible to have the line speed the dogs had without being offside. Yet they get away with it. That's the problem with the ref.

Absolutely....the bulldogs should be in the olympic team

Did he go off injured? I'd didn't notice him in the last 20 mins.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Did Papali’i even play?

 

[Wiz]

Agree. I know I'm desperately trying to gain momentum for a Bateman aging, but we know that won't happen. So get him the he'll out of the Middle. His link play is shocking, slow and clunky.

Don’t just get him out of the middle l, get him out of the club. He’s terrible. Small and slow and a penalty machine. Everyone knew he was a bad signing except Sheens. Unfortunately he’s got two more years after this year. Richo has his work cut out trying to rejig our roster, we are just so small, slow, weak and lacking IQ compared to the other clubs.

We didn't deserve to win .....but the refereeing was poor

How can the NRL let the wife of a ex employee of a club ref their games

 

[TYGA]

Badly officiated second half allowed dogs offside and shut us down completely. No dummy half runners is our biggest problem. Turuva will make a massive difference. Api badly missed.

 

[stephen]

How you ever seen so many successful challenges. We have played shite. But she is awful. Should never see FG again

Like most of our squad.

 

[LARDS]

I'd love to know the stat's on winning three challenges

There was at least one more obvious challenge we should have made and we would have won that.
It's not a good look for the ref

 

[tigers4ever 0]

A bit upset with Bulas effort at the back in defence tonight! He put 100% effort in with every defensive play last year... this year is so so.

 

[innsaneink]

Agree . But when they are allowed to shoot up all game when the ball barely touches the ground , it kills the game .
She had no control of Mahoney and no u sweet and how that’s not possible …

You dont understand line speed....its how you win the ruck and that wins games

 

[Telltails]

Badger made some horrible calls today, but we definitely lost that through bad discipline

The ref created that by not controlling the game fairly. Three captains challenges all won against the ref. Let's stop making excuses for a terrible display by the officials

 

[Droppy05]

Bulldogs were very disciplined. Their completion rate was close to 100% and their line speed was phenomenal. The officiating may have been a farce but the better side won.

They are an average side. Should have put 40 on the useless tigers.

 

[18thman]

Gender equality? Referee womens games then ..........NRL standards need to be adhered to!

 

[balmain boy]

We're just ab absolute joke of a club. So many lazy, stupid players, in every grade.
That was one of the worst halves I've ever watched. No one was trying. No one. We averaged about 15m a set nr second half. Just embarrassing.
We have no game plan, and players that are too small, too slow and too stupid.

Most of the players on the field today shouldn't be there next season.

I don't think Bula sprinted once in the entire bloody match! Where has his desperation gone? He walks back on much returns, and could have got to the dogs second try if he just tried. Yet he got out sprinted by a prop?! He didn't dive for the ball, he just gave up on the play. And this sets the tone for the entire squad. When he walks back on kick returns or just generally strolls through the game. Where is his support play? He wasn't our worst today by any means, but as our highest paid player he needs to produce so much more than he does

 

[craigtob]

There seriously needs to be a review into Casey Badger.

That was the worst refereeing I've ever seen.

Disgusting.

Totally agree
Was the worst i have seen in years.so far out of her depth, not 1correct decision an appalling performance.
