You can't just get that call wrong given he's 5m away with a perfect view, and the ball being on ground and dropped is as obvious as that. I never buy into ref bias' or whatever, but that was unbelievable. I have never seen anything like that in my life.

Haven’t bought into bias before but that is so blatantly incompetent. -
He made a mistake, not cheated. Seriously!
and I feel like he’s tried to square up since!! That Simms dropped ball gets given against us 9/10 times.
our completion rate is 90%. Let’s believe we can do this instead of blaming the ref alreadyComment

Fox commentary calling him out on it big time.
Then to add salt into the wound he blows a bogus penalty to gift them field position for a try.
Worse than inept this guy.Comment

I don't think he cheated.
But the question is, if a first grade ref is that bad, what on earth is he doing officiating the top level.
An amateur ref at an under 10's match would spot that knock on 999 times out of 1000.Comment

I don't know if he cheated but it's hard to imagine what he thought he saw... sometimes a player goes to catch that with two hands and it's touch and go whether they get their hands under the ball or there's a little bobble but his hands were so far away from the ball I just don't know what the thought he saw.
His view and proximity to the call makes it one of the all time shockers but I don't think he's a cheat as he's notorious for making clangers.Comment

I never buy into the cheating but like you say 6, what on earth did he see? Like you say, it wasn't even close.Originally posted by Rooster_6 View PostComment

Disgraceful game by klein...... he should lose his refs ticket for that blatant robbery.
Gutted for our boys, they deserved to win that.Comment
-
Robinson should call that out. But I don't think he has the balls.Comment
-
We didn't lose because of Klein....even though he is incompetent
We lost because come this time of year we just cant seem to field a quality team due to injuries.
Honestly, they were brave tonight...but we had 4 players in our backline that aren't first grade players, that is going to make it tough. Throw in the fact our halves CANNOT kick us out of our end it was always going to be very tough even against a very average Storm sideComment
-
We say it everytime.... how does Klein keep his job with some many inept performances that have changed final results??Comment
-
He made it unnecessarily hard for us with his 1st half reaming.
Proud of the boys for fighting their way back into the contest.Comment
-
and then all through the rest of the game after he made that call, he was generous to us, almost squaring things up in some way. Including the no penalty call on Walker at the end.Comment

Reckon we watched different games mate. Chooks were the better side, we played well. The blokes who filled in did great! This is Roosters footy. Ignoring the ridiculous reffing all game, the six again on fifth tackle from a blatant milk is beyond ridiculous. That’s why they got in position for a try. I’m ok if that’s called consistently but Klown was off his chops tonight. Anyway great end to the season, they left it on the park and we’ll go into next year with a shite load more confidenceOriginally posted by Easts75 View PostComment
