Yep. If the NRL just invested in more comfy couches, there would be no complaints about referees.

Coxy said:The problem with the refereeing mistakes this season is nothing to do with the 2 referees. It's the constant attempts by Finch to make rules black and white and taking common sense out of the equation. As Dexter said, there's too many penalties for things that have no impact on the play.
The new advantage interpretation was a joke, implying that you only got an advantage if you ran 10m past the point of the error. The obstruction interpretation is all wrong.
I don't actually think referees have made too many actual mistakes. They've simply done what they're coached to do...it's that coaching that is totally wrong.
Finch must go.
The Rock said:Quick question regarding advantage rule. Ok so what happens if you go through a whole set of 6 and you don't make 10 metres? Are they seriously going to call it back?
