The Ref

[TheDaBoss]

ik its common for fans to bag the ref after a loss

but geez u can not get more apparent then the bullcrap that idiot pulled tonight

Reynolds gets his voice box shattered- no penalty

wighton drops ball- penalty

 

[Shooter Mcgavin]

The CheeKam pass off the ground - Penalised
[5mins later]
Raiders player same thing and is called to go back and play the ball

Lots of questionable decisions

 

[bacon]

And there's only one we can blame lol...the other 2 aren't there anymore

 

[AL The Tiger]

Tapine dropped ball call changed the game.

Brooks was through off a MCK offload, and the referee calls a penalty to Raiders. Then doesn't allow for a bloody challenge!

 

[Newtown]

If the top rated team is not going well the referee feels that his judgements are wrong and so favour the top rated team. Human nature.

 

[momo_amp_medo]

Hopeless just hopeless performance which cost us ....
When are we going to get a evenhanded call from this lot?

The Sutton Mafia strike again

The bloke we had tonight was a shocker to be fair.

 

[Geo]

Sutton made it difficult....very difficult to overcome that sort of stuff against a team like Canberra.. but we had enough chances to do that and let ourselves down..

Lot of fight though which was encouraging..

I'm choosing not to blame the ref. That's what bulldogs supporters and Ricky Stewart do. We just have too many weak players and it's that simple. I hope Madge never signs an over the hill player on big money ever again. It's been our Achilles heel for just too long now.

Tonight was terrible, zero reward in the first half for being the dominant team, yet in the second half the ref rode the raiders home.

Terrible terrible ref

How can a challenge not be allowed? Is that not against the rules? Should the club take this further?

 

[Fade.To.Black]

The Harry Grant forward pass from dummy half getting pulled up was laughable. See at least 20 of them per game that are forward from the PTB. When you are getting pinged for them you know your team's cards are marked for the game.
Get receding Cammy out there....he gets away with them.

Terrible terrible ref

You don’t mind losing a game by a small margin when the team has really given it their best, but to be given next to no chance of actually winning because of inane and biased referee decisions is just plain wrong and it happens way too many times to our team I’m afraid. I’ve bloody had enough of it! The coach needs to make some noise and put these officials on notice that we’re not gonna lay down and be trodden on by referees anymore! Enough is enough - Wests Tigers matter!

Agreed about the Tapine dropped ball call. That was a game changing bad decision.
The MCK call was the icing on top.

 

[jadtiger]

Another manufactured result,Sutton seemed to know who was going to win before the game and refereeed accordingly.

 

[JC99]

The fact there was only one ref means those calls like the elbow and the dropped ball that got given a penalty will be called wrong more often. Wasn’t the reason we lost but raiders got more calls their way that’s for sure
