Stefano Sinbin

Next time there's a shonky decision the captain should just lead the boys of the field and bring the game into disrepute.

It will probably cost 100k but we will get it back in sponsorships and gates.

Got to call the crap out.

Even Anasta thinks it's obvious.

9-3 pens against a crucial sin bin against , 3 disallowed tries
The first is where lead runner ran right thru line a wide gap no contact with anyone ? The 2nd is if you are looking for something hoping to deny
The 3rd is a judgement call on whether a pass is 6" fwd or not .with our standing we are not going to get any judgement our way.
IT IS NOT A LEVEL PLAYING FIELD .for reference Gee on field Atkins bunker !!
The supposed greats always love to wax lyrical about how the good sides wear down the inferior sides....

Utter bullshit in this era where the refs who "unconciously??" start a game with an expected result based on the bookies odds.... and manage the game towards that expectation!!!

It is beyond incompetent and is borderline corrupt as to how the NRL allows it to perpetuate without question.

These refs are like typical coppers - just by aspiring to be in that occupation they are fundamentally psychologically unfit for the job!!

That is the real quandary!

Unpopular twerps who like hanging around footballers & not being booed by home teams....

AND THAT BULLSHIT mentality is what truly wears down the "lesser" teams!

Getting continually bent over by the mutt in the lime green dunce shirt & Mr Magoo in the bunker is what truly wears down teams like our who are playing with spirit & enterprise!!

A competent CEO who could put these legitimate concerns to the NRL would not go astray either - while Pascoe was again happy with hat sales on a sunny day & the Centre of Ambivalence will be open soon....


PS - nobody mention Balmain Leaguesy also burning down while Adam Gee had his way with us at Brookie....

Probably why Hastings gave some lip to the touchie
I'm unsure whether having 5 captains was ever going to work, in some cases it's going to go against you.
Cam Smith proved year after he could get his fair share of calls go his way.
I've seen a couple times this year when calls weren't challenged and if they were, we would've been successful.
I believe Hastings should be given the reins and see if things improve.
The point I'm trying to make is, if a captain quickly says something to the ref you want the ref to react and not dismiss it straight away. Some calls could be questioned straight away and not even be challeged.... that's the goal, make the ref to feel obligated to check these 50-50 calls. Don't brush us off.
Make Hastings captain and see if anything changes.
I'd like to see Jacko at press conferences because he speaks well and the respect from refs can be influenced off the field too.
 
I don't know what madge says away from cameras but I hope its loud
His test is today .Will Annesley be made to address any concerns from Manly Tigers game today or will this game not get a mention
 
Thought it was put about a while back that the Badge found himself out of favour with the power brokers at the NRL. Don't really know any detail but I thought at one stage there was a bit of nastiness around it.

Chechin went down the same path, was set to retire but came back a couple more seasons before eventually retiring
 
If Stefano got binned Manly should have had 1-2 players binned throughout the game. The Stef binning was atrocious. But when Manly committed 3 breaches in 90 seconds when defending their try line and got no punishment that's when you know it's a farce.

Maybe we all need to write letters to Vlandys. That's apparently the only way to make change at the NRL level, and only dinosarus no how to still do it. What's NRL's postal address, how much do stamps cost, $1-2?

Been saying this a while
 
In years gone by I've tried not to blame refs, and leant more to 'rub of the green', 'refs are human too', 'swings and roundabouts' and what we as a team could do better...

But this year it has become clear that there's more to it. Statistically, it doesn't add up.

And it's not just the incorrect, blatantly biased calls against us. It's also the calls the other teams don't get.

We get pinged for a forward pass that wasn't a forward (that looked likely to lead to a try), but if you look at Manly's previous try there was a blatant forward pass that eventually lead to points that wasn't called. That's a potential 12 point turn around in 5 mins.

Now the real question... What can we do about it? Complaining might give us a cathartic release but is there an avenue to actually make the NRL look into this? Or at least shake them up?
 
I watched about half of the annesley Rd 9 review no mention of tigers issues
Talks about issues concerning Penrith, Parramatta, Cowboys Are.we are not important to the powers that be . ? Please Madge your supporters want some answers.If you think Manly and Tigers were treated evenly on field and in the bunker then say so and we will drop it
 
It’s a better ball than anything Harry grant ever passes out of dummy half , FLAT. But hey the defence was so bad it had to be forward right ? ….. right ?
Actually a lovely ball.

And all the key decisions at vital stages.

I go as far to say if they didn't get the microscope out to tale our first tdy off us after holding manly out we go on and win....like last week.

If Paps ran onto a pass like that from Munster commentary would just focus on what a sweet ball it was.
 
Maybe we need to create a change.org petition to gather votes from spectators to see if the tigers are treated equally in the nrl.
Certainly a couple of unfair calls but every supporter can make a case for their own teams.
What annoys me though is the lack of focus when adjudicating our tries. They almost always get sent up as no tries.
 
I once contacted Slater & Gordon after a dodgy ref match vs St George back in the day. They were well-known class-action lawyers and I claimed that I and the attendees at LO suffered a "loss of amenity" over the result, given that I had paid for an event that ought to have been presented fairly. They said that whilst the action may have had some grounds given that the monetary value of the referee's decision was quantifiable given that the number of ground attendees was known (hence the $$ value of the affected amenity) - the fact was that if successful, no one would ever referee a Rugby League Game again given the risk of a law suit!

Maybe the establishement privately will take a petition as a compliment on a job well done.

Its reaching a stage where the incidents are not even adequately replayed and discussed.

It will force our club up the risk curve playing a very adventurous style in order to make our team popular enough to be valuable to the hierarchy to give us an even break.

Don't think we are ready especially with the injuries.
