Message: [QUOTE="Foordy, post: 2599747, member: 1769"] Just wondering everyone's thoughts on this... For those who aren't aware yet it was in the Eels vs Storm game yesterday. Storm were awarded a penalty and Sandown says to the ref (Cummins) "how much are they paying you?". Cummins then sin bins Sandow, while Sandow wad in the sin bin, the Storm score 3 trys to take the game away from the Eels. Before the sin binning of Sandow, the Eels were only down 24-16. After the match, Arthur had a go at Cummins for taking the opportunity to win away from the Eels and referred to the Sandow comment to Cummins as "trivial" and us laying little to no blame on Sandow.

No ref in any sport in the world would tolerate a statement like that from a player, it doesn't matter how poor the refs performance is. If Arthur wants to blame anyone for the sin binning, he needs to lay the blame where it belongs ... on Sandow. I also think there is a good chance Sandow will receive a charge from the MRC. [/QUOTE]
