What about the penalty count???

Was at WT Ashfield in a packed auditorium with a few beers under my belt and we were all blowing up with the penalty count, although we were a tad one eyed. I just seemed to think the refs did not reward our defence and for 70 minutes were trying to get a win up for Billy, than with 10 minutes to go thought their will be a royal commission if they dont put the whistle in their pocket.

Alls forgotten after a gutsy win, but I think we could have had pages of people blowing up if we had lost

Was it bit like one of the old fashioned Ashes games tours , we are playing the French Presidential 13 and Gerard Depardieu is ref and we get penalised 25-2 and Australian players are getting penalized for not getting up quick enough to play the ball or tackling too hard :roll
 
I was at Wests too great atmosphere wish I went to Melbourne though.
18-8against us reminded meof 80s matches when rorted.
Think we only had possession once when Mats was off and lts of one sided jubious calls.

And we still won.
 
Penalty count was ridiculous ….
No way were we that ill disciplined ...no way !
But we overcame adversity with an EPIC win !
 
In the end it just made the win sweeter!! BUT it is a real problem. I don’t think refs cheat but I do think refs that are not mentally tough favour the ‘champion’ side. There is no way our wrestle and ruck defence was that much worse than Storms. There were a number of times their markers were caught not square but no penalty was blown. Of course this won’t happen but the refs should be addressing this bias that everyone sees each and every week
 
Storm do nothing wrong SC… :deadhorse:

NZ Tiger and I comented in the 2nd half that some penalties against were desreved and our discipline in that area needs work but some seemed ummm scripted...

Was it 9-1 or something...?

9-1 against for the second half
 
What about when Munster tripped/back slammed on of our players. I thought that would come under a dangerous tackle or a least not in the spirit of the game

Apparently the refs have lodged a protest stating our win was not in the spirit of the game!!
 
While Esan was lining up his third penalty kick Cam was in the ref’s ear for an eternity that was our last penalty for the game, well refereed Cam.
 
Absolute joke. 18-8 penalty count for the game to the storm, 9-1 against us in the second half. Makes the victory even more sweeter.

Does anyone think we did it deliberately, especially when they were in our 20 to stop their momentum and expansive plays .

Yes!

Great to see our guys backing themselves though in Defence!
 
Then again , they could of let the forward pass go , I didn't think it was forward from the hand

Yes we are backing our defence , but eventually playing with 12 every week will kill you

The worst in my opinion was Rowdy getting taken out when he went for the kick off in the last 80 seconds

Even EB picked that one up

Young fella has been hinting/joking about becoming a Cowboys supporters , that has changed LOL ,even the threats of boarding school and living with his Grandad wasn't working
 
With this penalty count, the Storm fans still believe they were hard done by the refs.

One of the forum members' comments:
"Suli needs to cut out all the little careless mistakes near our tryline. Really hurt us tonight and it has in the past aswell. Tigers had to of been offside all night tho, they were always right up in our faces" - Deadpool

They can suck a big fat one the maggots.
 
I would’ve been fuming at the refs if we lost that. All the calls seemed to be going the Storm’s way. I’ll be interested to see if there is any talk of the penalty count tomorrow
