He's right. I have been sure of it ever since the Melbourne scandal came out. The referees are influencing the games to create drama and keep the whole competition close. Honestly if you don't believe it, you are naive. How else do you explain the most obvious off side in history not being given within penalty goal range. How else do you explain the blatant John Sutton knock on when he went down injury being missed. How else do you explain a five metre forwards pass being missed completely. Incompetence? Every week? From every set of referees? Puh-lease. You are all the ones that need to wisen up. Interpretations changing every week with no announcement on multiple rules? How about that call when the Tigers escaped the in goal after Latu allegedly grounded it, BUT DIDN'T ANYWAY, and even if he had have grounded it, I have seen that exact things be called either way depending on what is in the best interest of the game remaining competitive.
Also, I firmly believe the Tigers will make the 8\. We will win next week, lose to the Eels, win the following week and then lose to the Titans. And you know what, the referees will make sure we'll make the finals.
