2GB Mob on Last Night's Game

[kurtsherlock6]

Fans who think referees are the problem have no fi.

They're a PART of the problem, if you dont see that, you have no NFI.

Spot on. It's almost a certainty unless the other team stuffs it up.

But then again how come we were so disciplined against souffs and gave away only 1 penalty....and i don't believe it's a Hargreaves / Friend thing.

Hayne is the best ref, as he lets the game flow.

Very good points.

JWH is targeted just like Morley was

but half the player at the moment.

Are you referring to Jarryd? It's certainly not Shayne!!!

All the refs are awful, may as well look at a system without refs because 2 doesn't work. They're just rubbish at the moment.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees that. He is a fan favourite like Old Man Moz was.

The referees gave us Zero chance of winning the match in the 2nd half Honestly when was the last time you sqaw a side belted 7 or 8 2 in the penalties in the 2nd half ? Whe was the last time you saw 1 team get 4 or 5 penalties in the final 20 minutes of a match ? When generally the referees tend to put the whistle away and let the players decide the match

Personally I am sick of it I doubt I will go next week becuase of this I am just fed up with it

But I'm coming home for this one and I want to say hello. Please change your mind.

[redwhiteblue]

You can expect more of the same next week.
St George where allowed to lay all over Melba at the tackle last night.

So more of the same for us I dare say.

But it's funny when Melbourne get done though...

[redwhiteblue]

My Dad is a lifetime Dragons supporter, and even he has been saying for the last month or more that while we do give some dumb penalties away (nobody here will deny that), that the refs have been unfairly targeting us.

My family follow Parra and Brisbane and they always stick up for the Roosters for me even when we don't really deserve it.

[redwhiteblue]

Anyone who cannot see that the Roosters are so undiciplined need to take there Rooster glasses off.

The Roosters have been robbed in at least 4 games this year due to refereeing mistakes but losing the penalty count every week is due to a major discipline problem in the side which Smith has to take responsibility for.

You follow Melbourne closely Mickey. How many penalties as Ryles given away this year? I'm really curious to know the stats because when he was a Dragon, I had friends who were St George fans who were happy to see the back of him. I checked his stats in the UK and he gave away an average of one per game over there too. There have only been 2 Storm games shown down here this year on GEM so I'm not familiar with how many penalties he gives away now.

Very very small part of the problem.

Adding to this. Tonight I have watched 3 matches In the final 20 minutes og the 1st match two penalties were given 1 for a strip and one for offside from the kick off In the other two matxhes there was not a penalty given in the last 20 minutes of either match

So in 3 games tonigth only 2 penalties awarded in the final 20 minutes of the match As opposed to 4 or 5 in one match last night

The 2gb mob said it, Voss said it, we've been saying it here. We get rorted in penalties and 50/50's. But honestly some of that is due to some dumb ares in our side. Yes we get dudded overall and its there for all to see.

[Cockadoodledoo]

Even if it doesn't cost us a match doesn't make it acceptable. I thought Jason Robinson was largely decent last night but the other guy absolutely reamed us

[RooSta]

I agree that the refs have killed us not only this year but for a while now And yes there have Been a few decisions this year that have gone against us that cost us the game., I do believe the refs target A few of our players it's not hard to tell but in saying that those stupid players are too dumb and don't help the cause at all JWH friend and even FPN all know they are targeted but still Choose to lay all over the Ruck and try with the little wrestle on the floor before they get up and the thing that pisses me off most I think they must be getting told to do it because I've noticed nearly the whole team do it they don't take there hands off the man playing ye ball even as he's playing it they still got there hands all over them... There discipline or shall I say lack of is most annoying the fact it seems like it isn't being addressed or fixed in anyway at all...

I went to the game last night with my mate a titans fan, and he was saying all game that the Titans were terrible and that the roosters were loosing the game ourselves, he was actually impressed with our team and all our young talent as individuals but same as everyone else is saying that they aren't being coached like a 1st grade team it's like there all playing like they were in the younger rep sides as individuals... Everyone can see the potential we have in our roster it's just we need to find a proper coach that can bring out the best of each player and gel them as a team

Agreed but the discipline problems existed well before Smiff arrived.

This club is soft.

When the going gets tough, we get going, to the pub.
