Another cricket score penalty count against us

[weplayforprems]

Yep.

Nothing to see here, LOL.

Penalties conceded now up to a massive 117 for us now, with Bulldogs next on 89, almost 30 less than us.

Broncos only 66, almost HALF our penalties conceded.

I mean, really?

I shouldn’t let it ruin my enjoyment. But it does.

There was an embarrassing sequence in the first half where we are 16-0 up. Tigers have a terrible play the ball. Knock on all day (play on). The very next day their reserve grade forward drops it (penalty strip).

Klemmer on Collins is just a sin bin all day. Play on. As is Bateman’s dog shot on a prone Gus. Play on.

I’m so over having to play 14 every week. And teams getting different rules when we pump them.

We have won 10 games this year (most by huge margins) and won the pens twice. It’s borderline impossible unless you are judging shit differently.

4 Tigers placed on report, 3 of them missed by the on field ref.

I found it very hard to track the rulings around offside, didn’t seem to be any consistency to the rulings.

[Vasco]

Collins gets penalised for a love tap when the player slipped. Next set of six he gets whacked across the head and it's play on.

[Seventy Five]

I don't think the officials missed any high shots or foul play against the Roosters tonight. It was all too blatant for that! Instead, just like in weeks gone by they chose to ignore it. The question is why!

[elo]

Ricky is very kind when he says the officials are "guessing" when it comes to six agains.....it's pretty blatant game management as far as I'm concerned, some of the offside six agains that get called compared to those that don't is far beyond guessing. There was two blatant times Tigers markers got caught offside and nothing, yet Radley get pinged when he makes an effort to push out the defensive line, it's just bullshit - the game does not reward effort defense anymore.

My favourite was against Parra a few weeks ago. Manu bombs a try on the 4th. On the final tackle an Eels player nearly catches the ball at halfback before it reaches Walker. Had to be 7 metres offside. Play on.

Just another casual penalty count and 6 again count loss against a team we pumped by 40 who also avoided 2 blatant high tackle dog shot sin bins.

You didn't really expect anything less did you?

How is it that a team can so completely dominate another team, yet they're the ones who got caned in the penalties?

I think that most of the penalties we got were delivered from the bunker. Either that or there was no other choice but for the ref to blow one.

It is getting beyond ridiculous.

Don't forget the knees in the back.

Another hopeless refereeing "performance" by Klein today, we would have scored 60 again without this cretin trying so desperately to keep it close. Any slight high contact from us an instant penalty, multiple high shots on our players ignored yet again, ****er.

Give it a rest.
We won.
We're third on the ladder.
The 3 best teams are at the top & will fight it out.
The best team will win the comp no matter who the ref is.

Not really responding to this in regards to referees, but I reckon there are a few teams who have won the comp while not being the best team. Cowboys in '15 would probably be the biggest example. I think possibly the Sharks in '16 as well.

Not necessarily….st George grand final 2010 were gifted 3 tries that should have been disallowed. Up until about the 50th minute today Klein had been one eyed in his reffing and at 12-10 had he continued reffing the game that way we may well have lost. One 6 again our way and we score a try and st g heads drop they make a poor kicking error by hunt …Lindsay to teddy and game over. It would be great to always see the best team win, but you’re being overly optimistic to think that is always the case.

The Sam Walker “offside” where’s he’s dead set about a foot off when the Dragons were on about their 5th set in a row, 1m out, is just peak Klein. No other team in the comp is penalised there

You're taking him way too seriously, he's just another forum troll who likes to become the focus of attention and predictably injects himself. A boring shit stirrer.

Spot on.
