[QUOTE="Organix, post: 3281488, member: 8187"] This is true, if the refs were in any way consistent. Laying on a player, flopping, hand on the ball, interfering in the ruck is all very subjective, and without stopping the play cannot be contested. It's easy for you to hand wave away a lot of it as bias, and sure, I am, but having seen the shift in the game affect a lot more teams over the past year it has reinforced my belief. Looking back at the start rd 3 of 2020, the Broncos were the Guinea Pigs. First game each round, first to cop the worst of the calls before moderation through the later games of the rounds. I suppose, I could essentially hand wave your opinion as your bias, but I believe that each game should be looked at individually, then on the whole. As I have shown you, based on play by play reviews, the Broncos tend to be heavily penalised early in matches, resulting in a roll-on effect. If penalties are more evenly shared throughout this early period, the effects may be the result of other factors. BUT, in games where the Broncos are heavily penalised early, they lose heavily. Saying "don't have hands on the ball, you won't get a penalty" is proven false when it is ignored for 90% of the game. The games where Broncos have not had this early punishment, they have shown promise. The question is WHO is being inconsistent? In viewing two different matches one after the other, it becomes evident that the refereeing is not consistent, and unfortunately it's typically to the detriment of the Broncos. Particularly last year, where the psychological damage was done. Heck, look at the start of a half compared to the end of the half, the reffing is very inconsistent. Penalties that were given in the first half are ignored in the second half. I am honestly just asking for consistency, and that's not something that we have seen even when we win. Hetherington sent off but Radley stays on? I don't think this is fair. and? give me a better explanation... because the one we currently have is pretty bad. Furthermore, the more information we get regarding this, the more it looks like a good ol' coverup. Also, Sports Rorts sound familiar? Track records can go further back than we know. [/QUOTE]
