      Not convinced of what?

      Our team as it is, nearly beat all three. I said, if we were a better team we would have beaten them..

        There was a run of five games in a row where EIGHT video referee decisions were incorrect against us.

        Amazingly, I think we won all five games.

        The worst of this lot was against the Broncos, where I think Hodges scored a late try where the ball spilled free in a Minichiello tackle and the first few angles didn't show it. But of course the benefit of (****ing plenty of) doubt went to the Broncos. As soon as they give the try a front on angle 'miraculously' appears that shows Hodges clearly knocking the ball on. And Laurie Daley still somehow trying to justify the video ref's decision while Greg Alexander was about to kill him for his stupidity I think.

        Luckily, SKD scored a couple of minutes later to cap off an amazing win (from memory, Carney tore them a new one and we led about 28-6 only to blow the lead, regain it, lose it to the video ref and then win it right at the death).

        God I miss 2010.
        It was Folau.

        Harrigan and co. still claimed that it was a correct decision to give benefit of the doubt as they didn't have the vision available when making the call. All you could see was Folau going across the line with Mini trying to hold him up then the ball goes loose. Daley kept saying that it had to be benefit of the doubt and a try because Mini was trying to rake the ball. The subsequent replay showed that Mini's hands were nowhere near the ball and Folau dropped when in the process of reaching out to ground it. I was fuming at the time. There's doubt and then there's extreme doubt....this was the case of benefit of the extreme doubt.
