Sports Ears

[Easts75]

Who the **** would want to watch the footy and listen to the refs ?? Sorry but it would be like knocking the back out of Miranda Kerr and looking at a photo of your mum. It just would destroy the moment. Sorry but I don't need to hear the refs to know they are doing us dry.

Someone who likes to be informed about what she's blowing up deluxe about.

I leave the Miranda Kerr & Mum fantasies to you. I'm not that way inclined.

So now that someone is 'informed' listening to sports ears, do you think they enjoyed the game more ?? I doubt it , I'm guessing they are more frustrated and it detracted from the spectacle. Rugby League is the best sport to watch in the world, ref's are a blight on the game. Sports Ears are for people IMO who want to complain about the refs all game, I do my best to ignore them as much as possible

RWB, I'd prefer to know what's going on than just blindly watch the game not knowing the background to what's happening.

Sometimes listen to the refs actually helps understand why penalties are given to either side, eg, you can hear them telling a player he's offside only to have the player ignore him. Quite frankly some players (Easts and non-Easts) get what they deserve on some occasions.

It's also good to hear their views when they send tries upstairs as to why they do/don't think it's a try.

I actually feel bereft without them at games now if it runs out of batteries.

While I don't always like what I hear - I'd rather listen to it than not. Far prefer it to radio or TV commentary, espec Channel 9.

That's fair enough NC. I find it funny when it's 2 teams I cannot stand eg. Souths v Canterbury as the refs are confused as to which grub to deal with first..but when its my own beloveds sometimes I would rather not know..
