Video Ref to be sacked

It was reported in today's tele that the video ref for the tigers- bulldogs game( I think it was Hampsted) will be stood down.

I am not suprised. The shepherd decision and the farah ref's call decision were absolutely shockers.

Fat lot of good that does us.

I know. I am still peeved off about it. The game should of been over after 80 minutes with the tigers winning. There would of been no extra time meaning that Farah would of not fractured his hand.

Yet he'll be back again in a week or two….they always are

Referees coach Harrigan yesterday conceded he 'had reservations about the decision' but would refrain from making further comment until tomorrow's de-brief.

"If a decision has impacted on the game from a video referee, all year we've stood them down," Harrigan said.

"We'll do exactly the same thing here. We'll review the decision on Monday and then we'll work out what we need to do."

then we'll work out what we need to do.

Only thing they need to work out is whether to stand him down or sack him completely.

Your exactly right ink. The referees ranks are in turmoil.

*Slow Clap*

Bra-Farking-vo.

While we are doing things like the captians/coaches challenge - here's a thought - scrap the idea of Refs Call - lets FORCE the Video Ref to make a decision.
 
The thing that annoys me most is that the decisions not only impacted the game, they've ruined our season. Had the right decisions been made, tigers would have won, beaten the table toppers and only need to win one game to guarantee a spot in the finals. Instead, we have to win both games without or captain and hooker, just because the one bloke with the red and green buttons is a monkey

I only half agree with this. It's not the referees fault that we've essentially had that poor a season that we relied on winning the game to scrape into the finals. Their decision(s) ruined the game, we'd long ruined our season all on our own before Friday night.
 
Are they allowed to strip the dogs of the two points and give them to us? we would of won 28-16 bloody referees always cheat us.

Totally agreed!

On a side note, Maxwell has been butchering our games for years. That man is the grim reaper for the tigers when he refs our games.
 
what do you expect harrigan to say? first of all and acceptance of being wrong, then maybe an apology? not that it helps us much, but that's something.
 
I am so pissed right now, we could of been sitting on 7th position and a win next week would of probably kept us safe in the finals but no the bloody referee has to screw us this is pathetic it is a disgrace to the game and it is getting stupid. We now have to win both our games to just make the finals. We need changes and straight away make it one referee again and we need a revision of the rules.

God, you really are a bogan. Does not matter where we are on the table, they cost us that game period. Wise up. I think that it is time to go back to one ref. If he gets it wrong then so be it. At the moment we have twice the number of refs and half the performance.

I may be a bogan, but my comprehension skills are far better than yours. Try reading the post in it's entirety next time before taking a pot shot, it might stop you from making an utter goose of yourself :laughing:
 
& in fact they have changed the way video refs work immediately after they stuffed us up.
Too late now.

Harrigan said plans to have an NRL referee sit in the video referee's box from next year had been brought forward after the latest controversy, with Jared Maxwell ordered to help video adjudicator Russell Smith at Toyota Stadium last night.

'' 'Stuey' [fellow referees boss Stuart Raper] and I had a plan for next year and we're going to implement that now,'' Harrigan said yesterday. ''We're going to put our first-grade referees into the video box when we can - subject to when and where the game is - as assistance to the video referee.

''Especially coming into the semi-finals, we think that would be a positive thing to do. That will start as of [last night] with Jared [Maxwell] going to Shark Park and Ben Cummins going to Brookvale [today]. When it's possible to do it, we'll certainly do it.''

I am angrier and angrier over this…Two clear try decisions went against us...We should've won that game by 12 points..and not played extra time...we would've been in the semis for sure and had Farah as Robbie broke his hand in extra time...a period we shouldn't had to play!..I'm sick and tired of these crucial decisions costing us big time....like the scrum against the feed against the roosters in 2010 and the knees in the back "no call" on Lote against the saints in the final...when are we going to get a break...you never see Melbourne or the Cowboys suffer these sorts of bad calls against them!...news limited!!
