I couldn't give a flying **** about any of this.

And yet you continue to reply.

I was dragged into the thread with a question to my ID. I don't tend to ignore direction questions.

Does that mean you have to reply?

As far as I'm concerned once the final whistle has blown, the game is over and the referee's decision - whether mistaken or not - is final. That's the agreement between clubs, players and administration.

Short or long whistle?

I'm not aware of a game's result ever being reversed after the siren, regardless of admitted referee blunders, only competition points being docked due to major infringements (salary cap, 14 players on the field). Also, referees are subject to being sacked, demoted, etc. But the result always stands. That's the deal we all understand.

Yes...except this happened after the siren.

You're basing the credibility of your insane conspiracy theory on the outcome of one game that's been post-mortemed beyond bowel tolerance?

This was a nice turn of phrase.

I guess most people are just finding the spectacle hard to enjoy lately (i.e., during the game), and use the time after the spectacle to consider where things are going wrong. I mean, the NRL clearly does this too. Otherwise they would not keep changing and reassessing the rules, right?
