Message: [QUOTE="broncos4life, post: 3123483, member: 7802"] I think we all need to take a few deep breaths here. Some points from the way I see it. [LIST] [*]This team as a whole is very inexperienced, especially in the forwards. This will take time and the club knows this which is why they are investing in the key players and the coach long term. Consistency will take time which is why we will have games like this and then play like world beaters in another game. [*]I don't care what team it is you can't even come close to winning games with 36% possession, TBF they did well to keep the score to what they did with that possession and really it was only a blowout in the last 15 when the weight became too much. Yes the possession issues were their fault but it also shows that this is an outlier and not the rule. [*]I hate the 1 ref idea. They couldn't get it right with 2 so what makes them think they would with 1? This is not an excuse and I don't think we would have won regardless but I cannot believe that Parramatta were back the 10 and not leaving early with that line speed and some of the calls were just ridiculous. Clearly Parramatta realised that Sutton wasn't able to cover everything so they made sure they were good in the ruck but took advantage through leaving early. [*]The idea of the 6 again rule is sound in theory in terms of opening it up the game but it is never going to be applied fairly with the caliber of refs we have. They already struggled with grey area and this has just introduced more. The first try on the back of 2 6 again calls for 'holding down' there is no way we were any longer than the Eels were in the ruck. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
