They have mobility and speed we just can't match. New rules suit their side to a tee.
I don't want to come across as a sore loser but the new rules suit us also but I really don't think we get a fair share of the calls.
I watch closely and we generally tackle and jump off pretty quick as the ref is always yelling at us to get off and they get 6 again calls. It seem like we are scared to really tackle them with extra players as this is in the back of there minds.
On the other side I have seen a heap of times where we have made a break and pushing for a quick PTB to exploit the defence and they lay all over us and nothing ... no penalty or 6 again calls but when we do this the ref kills us straight away.. Its just not consistent in my eyes. The numbers might not say that but we seem to get calls at the last few seconds of the halves or when the game is dusted.
Once again I am not saying this is costing us games but I do believe it has an effect. We need to be better but as a player in any sport all you ask for is a fair rub of the green.
Jonesy ..we defend like we know we can't defend ..and it stands out like dogs balls
