CROSS FORUM NRL 2023 Round 23 Discussion

Not getting binned or sent off had no impact on JWH doing almost the same thing, so nope.

Mate did you never play the one of these things is not like the other game on Sesame Street ?

One the guy shot out of the line and smacked the guy in the head . The other just a regulation smack to the head . Ashley defined it at the time . You shot out of the line , then jumped and hit him in the head . You`re off .

Like the have they got the white thingy situation . If you shoot out of the line and jump its a harsher penalty .

JWH - aggressive towards a sideline official, a female no less
Teddy and Brown - literally swear at the ref / in his vicinity

Result - likely totally ignored

You forgot Nico at the touchie.

The six-again rule has become boring, predictable and too subject by inconsistent interpretations by referees. It's ironic that when a team is attacking close to the line the game is almost back to the days of the tedious unlimited tackle rule eliminated in the 1960's. Referees give a huge advantage to an attacking team on little more than a gut feeling they deserve another six!

"Has become"

Always has been

The Titans getting another good whistle to start the game

Mystical bunker decision

 

[JayPee]

[Harry Sack]

Wow, I'd like to see another angle on that one. Also, how the hell is Badger back in the bunker ffs?

 

[Foordy]

not sure how that isn't at least a sin bin given what we've seen the last few seasons

 

[Harry Sack]

Lol, Soul glow not having a good night with the hair

 

[Harry Sack]

Shut the **** up Blocker, we got one angle of the last one ffs

I have had a completely different view of Klein over the years compared to others. I think he has clearly been the best referee but the last month and a bit he has clearly either got a word in his ear or has completely changed his approach.

I believe he was one of the referees that didn't dish out many 6 agains or penalties but lately he hasn't stopped. Alot seem to be quick triggers too. He couldn't raise his arm at all in origin and now he won't stop. Has been terrible. That game last night was unwatchable. I actually prefer the way Cummins has been refereeing. Getting the balance right with 6 agains. To be fair to Klein last night both those teams were just deliberately giving away everything. Somebody should call out Robinson. That team has implemented it for years. Luke Keary has never found the 10m in his career there.

I don't give a shit if he's blowing the pea out of the whistle, as long as they are for genuine offences. The frustrating part would be that if he starts blowing them for one team who are constantly pushing past boundaries, he'll then do the same for the other team the moment they so much as cough, in order to seem impartial. I'd love nothing more than a 20-0 penalty count against teams that constantly bend the rules (Panthers, Storm) so that they are reffed out of games and have to start obeying the same rules as everyone else in order to compete. But we've seen what happened the last time that happened, and the "media" blew up about how it was ruining the sport.

Mo Fo will get sent

 

[MrMoore]

If he's that fucked up take him off

 

[ZTop]

Mo Fo will get sent

How's he supposed to avoid it?

 

[JayPee]

It's not as bad as it looks. CNK known to put some sauce on some stuff. It's a sin bin. See if Badger tries to be a hero

 

[ZTop]

If he's that fucked up take him off

Yeah no point wasting half n hr for him

 

[JayPee]

That is absolute rubbish
