Biases exist in all of us, conscious or not, and we are all a product of our upbringing. Refs are coached, and if that coaching is biased, they may not even realise their inherent bias. You seek to hold our own bias against us. Please be consistent. Would the same not also apply to refs in all sports? There is documented evidence of Refs involved in match-fixing in almost every sport. Why not the NRL? Do you know what the common factor in most cases is? Gambling/Money... Do you know what our current NRL Chairman is trained in? A gambling-based industry. Also, does this statement not also apply to clubs and their employees? Seems to me that their employment and their legitimacy are determined solely by their employers. The fans have proven that regardless of definitive proof of scandal, cheating, etc. there is still a demand for the sport. The Storm were shown to have cheated MULTIPLE times and yet they are still in the competition. Is the entire legitimacy of a professional club not also reliant on not cheating? If we are supposed to sit quietly and accept their inherent innocence, then there would be no investigations made in the first place. That is circular logic. Coaches are ordered to do this, and when incidents occur they are always attributed to error. What if it is a pattern? Professional NRL members Darcy Lawler - suspected Benny Elias - [/QUOTE]
