Last week against the Sharks. The Sharks were pinged 4 to 1 and had 3 players put on report.
Fair.
I thought I'd do a bit of research to see if I'm being unfair, here are the stats in terms of penalties and six agains:
Round 1 - Panthers win 9-6
Round 2 - Draw 10-10 (1 Cowboy sin binned)
Round 3 - Draw 9-9
Round 4 - Broncos win 4-7
Round 5 - Broncos win 10-4
Round 6 - Draw 7-7
Round 7 - Broncos win 11-9 (1 sin bin to the Titans)
Round 8 - Draw 4-4 (1 sin bin each)
Round 9 - Broncos win 10-7 (1 sin bin each)
Round 10 - Sea Eagles win 5-3
Round 11 - Storm win 14-10 (with 3 Broncos players binned, 1 Storm player)
Round 12 - Draw 8-8
Round 13 - Warriors win 9-6
Round 14 - Broncos win 5-4
Round 15 - Knights win 7-5
So:
Broncos win 5
Opposition win 5
Draws 5
So yep, you have fair points on the refereeing. It is interesting though that there is a good reason of us feeling like we have not won a penalty count for a while. Aside from the Cronulla game, we haven't won one since round 9.
Also shows how badly refereed that Storm game was.
So what is it that changed round 9 from us being one of the better disciplined team to suddenly being one of the worst?
