Thoughts On the GF now the dust has settled

[Guest]

Great post.

It's amazing how the great "momentum theory" doesn't apply to Leuluai's blatant knock on. Or how a team that loses penalty counts all year and (surprise,surprise) loses the penalty count in the Grand Final isn't a sign of an ill-disciplined team, but is because of some fanciful (and ludicrous) conspiracy.

Actually the Roosters have apparently been ill-disciplined since they sacked Brett Finch. Funny thing, before he was sacked, many thought we got the better of the refereeing because of it. Have a look at Nightingales try in the 58th minute of the GF, pass goes 2 mtrs forward from Hornby, hits the ground before Nightingale picks it up, right in front of the touch judge (he is right there). Doesn't see a ****en thing. http://refgotitwrong.com/dragons-v-r...nal-201057-19/

Not only are you a cun.t, but an extremely stupid one at that. Other posters have tried to enlighten you about how you have completely missed the point but you still don't get it. Stupid, thick cun.t

I'll take that as a no comment on the Leuluai blatant knock on / momentum thing. **HINT** 12-0 down sort of slows down your momentum.

Did I miss a grand final or something... when did we sign Leuluai?

More silence on the actual point. And you forgot to call me a cun.t.

I don't think you're a ****, you just come across as genuinely thick. Misunderstood because I don't think you're intentionally trying to be a troll you just assume the role of one naturally.

So you mention Leilua's "knock-on" but don't mention all the things that went against the Roosters. But then I wouldn't expect balance from you.

In one way I'm glad the "merge scum media darling ref favourites" "won" the GF because the 2010 premiership has an asterisk next to it which says "Not all teams were able to compete for the premiership therefore the "win" is tainted". To my mind it is a Clayton's premiership like so many supporters of other teams branded the Roosters' 2002 premiership. Enjoy your fake premiership 4".

Yeah....I'm the unbalanced one. A team get's whooped 32-8 in a wet Grand Final and it's everone elses fault except the players and coaching staff.

Oh dear Julz. You've watched it many times??? WHY??? Why put yourself through that? Time to move on with life. The cricket starts in a couple of weeks. Maybe give that a go and forget about footy til March.

Yes, and we can watch Ricky Ponting and Michael Clarke help drive the Australian team into the dirt by losing to the old enemy.

I don't think the GF was refereed in a fair manner. Not saying that the Dragons still would not have won but the decisions that went against the Roosters actually cost them points for and points against.

Little things like going to the video ref, it seems as though if you put Benefit of the Doubt on the screen you can get away with making refereeing mistakes.

The Roosters needed those decisions to go their way because they were on fire in the first half and put alof of effort into dominating the Dragons and didn't have as much petrol in the tank to keep it up in the second half, so they needed a greater lead going into half time.

As I said, enjoy your Clayton's "premiership" 4".

Only morons believe in a conspiracy theory. Well this one anyway.

We got beat.

What a fantastic year though. That loss hasn't taken the year away for me. Just glad to have been competing again.

I reckon you have one of those 'Magic Happens' stickers on your car.

Yes, I've had a look at quite a few Dragon's forums and they've all been quite downhearted and distraught since the win. Most feel they should hand back the trophy.
