I can recall people on forums 10 years ago claiming the refs were the worse they had ever seen. Some things will never change...

Totally agree. It was a bad error but that is part of the theatre of sport, these things unfortunately happen and it's particularly rotten luck it's happened twice in two years to the Cowboys. All the refs can do is apologise, learn from it and move on. Obviously these officials won't be...

I don't like seeing ex-player after ex-player being rolled out in the media to heap shit on the team. While some of their points may be valid, this is what clubs like the Eels have to endure all the time and all it does is create more instability in the club. So what happens if Walters takes...

If this is the 'worst Broncos team ever' then we really don't have much to worry about.

I think diving is the same as walking in cricket. It's down to the peer pressure of players to set their own standard on what's acceptable in the spirit of the game. In both cases I think players who dive or don't walk on a clear 'out' should expect to cop crap from spectators and other...

I'm happy for Griffin to have another go next year. The only concern I have is if he starts playing players for the sake of not hurting their feelings again (e.g. Hoffman at fullback) like what's happened this year with Norman at fullback and Wallace at interchange hooker, neither of which...

This also happens in other sports (rugby union, hockey) where they communicate the decision and reasoning back to the referee/umpires which the audience can hear.

It shouldn't take a broken jaw for someone to be sent off.

Imagine the score if Storm had clicked from the start... Snowden send off was a good decision.

The cap is going up next year isn't it? If so I don't see the issue with $700k for a player. Hopefully as part of the salary cap review they will consider dispensation for clubs who have players with long-term injuries. Otherwise we aren't even using the full cap as it stands with Yow Yeh...

That game made me realize how big the gulf is between the top couple of referees and the bottom group. Those two had no feel for the game at all. At one point there were 12 penalties after 48 minutes, i.e. about one every four minutes. Made it very hard to enjoy it, especially the second...

Eels are specials. We rarely play well against them and tend to find a way to lose.

who cares about the clause, it's clear the guy wants to leave the Raiders and I find it difficult to believe he'll want to stay at the Raiders beyond his current contract given how they are carrying on about this.

If it was a set play I doubt Hannant would've been the one in the plan to make the final pass :P

Rabs "We're no longer sponsored by Home Timber & Hardware are we" .... then Home Timber sponsor shows up on the field. The guy is senile.

So long as we don't end up like Parra and their former players 'saving the club' by voting against each other each year.

Did we even have a set of six in our attacking half in the second half?? The try was a long range effort, can't think of any actual sets where we got to attack their line. Golden point was painful to watch; it would be so much better as one 10-minute period. 5 minutes doesn't allow for...

what, 3 tries in 7 minutes, 0% posession, two kick offs for zero tackles in the opposition half, one of them out on the full, pathetic goal line defense?

Re: It's official ........ I think this thread is a little unfair on Wallace. Even if most of us agree he's not the answer in the halves, the guy does try hard week in week out.
