Message: [QUOTE="Organix, post: 3301268, member: 8187"] I was thinking on my jog this arvo that the issue is consistency and in arguing whether the Broncos are getting a rough end of it or if we're just shit, and the the question I kept coming back to was: is it more likely that one team is playing hot and cold (inconsistently), or more likely that multiple referees are adjudicating inconsistently, i.e., shouldn't a defined set of rules affect all teams equally if all referees adjudicated consistently based on said rules. Of course, it seems obvious to say then that the referees are human and do make mistakes. But therein lies the problem. Were the rules applied consistently inconsistently across all teams, then all teams would essentially run hot and cold. But some teams seem to be flawless nearly every week. Which in itself implies some bias, because noone is perfect. But are the Broncos so hot and cold that they can beat a top team one week and not concede any early set restarts, but then the next week concede multiple, especially when compared to every other team in the league? I really do not think so. I think if we were to honestly inspect and analyse each match we would see incredible inconsistencies in refereeing and I think we would see a large bias against the Broncos for whatever reason. And that has really ruined league for me the past few years. 2020 was essentially me ranting to my girlfriend every weekend. [/QUOTE]
