I have never seen a GF with so many crucial calls going only one way.

We are talking about almost all their tries here.

It is an absolute ****ing disgrace.

And it hurts...it physically hurts.

It sure as hell does.

There was no excuse for that decision. Everyone saw that as a knock on except Hollywood.

That try takes the game beyond our reach and we fell apart at that point.

Just wanted to copy what I wrote in another thread on this very thing:-

On watching the reply, in the Dean Young try.
The head on shot clearly showed the ball touching Aubbo, they then showed the side on shot to the right which was inconclusive, then they kept replaying that same inconclusive shot about 3 times, they showed one angle from the left which was blocked by the goal post, then they go back and show the inconclusive right angled shot again
"Benefit of Doubt"

It was only BOD from the right side shot. The head on shot which clearly shows the Aubbo touch (and knock on) and yet they only showed it the once, and yet they kept going back to the inconclusive right side shot 3 or 4 times .... unbelieveable !

With the Morris bomb where Perret was penalised, I think Morris would have dropped it anyway, if Perret had timed his run abit better and lined him up for a king hit as Morris was touching the ground he may have been able to regather the loose ball and score.

More paranoia.

Yes there were shit calls, dragons had a couple against them too.

At the end of the day the ref is always going to influence the score in some way, it happens every single week to every team, but a lot of people on here always seem to take it like there is a big orchestrated conspiracy against us.

Ahem
That looks out to me.

My sentiments exactly Johnny Tobin.

Perrett's run was illegally blocked by a saints player.

In total three of our contests were illegally screened out before we could contest the ball in the air. How could officials who couldn't see that a guy was standing half a metre out with both feet in touch and ball in two hands be expected to pick up the finer details of kick screens,.......
