Just saw a replay of the first Widdop try.
That right there is a consequence of the NRL trying to speed the game up, an absolutely howler was made because the bunker are under instructions to get to a decision as quickly as possible and didn't even bother looking at the contact on DCE which was a clear penalty.
Just more amateurish shit from the NRL and just shows out of touch they are.
There is too much focus on speeding up the play they are forgetting the more important thing, getting the decisions right.
The game was still very entertaining back when we had one ref.
Then Archer comes out and defends the bunker saying they couldn't look at it.. Rubbish. The bunker has been used before to look at incidents before the play the ball, mainly from the player playing the ball.
