Penalty counts

[Andrew Walker]

Once again we finished behind in the penalty count in a home match If anyone out there could bring up some statistics on teams records in penaty counts in home matches I am sure this would make some disturbing reading I bet over the last couple of seasons We are the side who has won the least penalty counts when playing at home

It really is beyond a joke It actually doesnt really seem to matter whether it is home or away The one thing you can almost be certain of is we will be behind in the penalties come full time I am ****en sick of it

If the club and coach don't go after the referees and the NRL bigtime in the media ...this season will just be like last year and all the recent years before that.

The refereeing of our match last night was a joke...as usual.
Warriors offside all night, nearly every ruck, lucky to be back 3 metres at times.
First penalties of the match to the opposition, same as every other week.
Plus all the other crap penalties.

Our club is spending big bucks for nothing in the NRL.

I saw a kick yesterday from Johnson and almost every single player including the chasers who made the tackle on Mini were literally 3-4 meters offside. And the refs head was facing the direction so he saw it? I was waiting for the whistle but nothing.

I agree and said as much at the game last night Saying we cannot win the comp this year whilst we are being refereed like this. Unless something changes I have come to accept we are just there making up the numbers

Everyone else at the ground saw it too.
And it didn't only happen once either.

Not a good look for the NRL, but they don't seem to care.
New Commission, big waste of time...what's changed?
Answer; nothing much.

We just have to do the little things better, giving away penalties like taking too long to get off the tackled player, hands on the ball in the ruck, markers not square and offside penalties are things we can improve on. We lose the penalty counts because we give the refs something to penalise us for.

That's about it in a nutshell.
Maybe the Club will speak out when the stadium is 'empty'...too late then.

Fans will simply not keep attending matches in any great numbers to see their team 'robbed' all the time.
They can cop it when the team gets beaten fairly and squarely, but not 'robbed'.

[sydroosters]

the reffs deffinetly don't wont us to win the comp this year, I started relizing this at the end of the cowboys games where they got 3 penalties in the 79 minute but its preety funny every team that plays the roosters are very disciplined

Im still at a loss as to how the warriors player did not get 10 min in the bin for a blatant holding down of jenko after that pick up

Yes, but...the refs 'don't' penalise the teams playing us, who are doing exactly the same things.

Warriors markers weren't square all night.
Warriors were offside all night.

They basically only referee one side, like last night...Warriors got away with 'murder'...Warriors won.
We were basically penalised out of the match, were made tackle for the first 25 minutes...penalties to the Warriors, our home game.

Our lost possession every 'second' set, dumb passes, dropped ball, no idea much in attack inside 20 didn't help our cause.

11,000 crowd last night, there'll be 5000+ next home game.

You and every other supporter.
Fans around me weren't at a loss, but for legal reasons I cannot repeat what they were alleging.

[Andrew Walker]

I dont go to away matches Because of biased refereeing against us I am getting to the point where home games may be next on the list

[Guest]

I'm the first to whinge about refs but they didn't cost us the game last night.

What cost us the game was the same 2-3 players who come up with their usual rubbish.

Some weeks we can cover them, other weeks it will cost us the game.

I agree with you 100% but the team can only work on their indiscretions, the rest is out of their hands. Whilst we are still giving away the silly penalties we will get hammered, give the muppets in the middle very little to pin on us.
