  • Are we the only team that has their tries reviewed?

    FFS it is getting beyond a joke, every farking time we score they go upstairs to find a way to disallow the try, even the obvious like SST’s try, other teams score and it’s just awarded move in, am I being paranoid? Or is this really happening every week

    To answer the title of your thread, no.

    But it I agree, they scrutinize almost all of our tries. It’s just part of being the Roosters. It’s expected.

      Some teams are reviewed more than others.

      sometimes it is almost orchestrated. Souffs score dubious try. Go upstairs with try. Then they show angles that show nothing to overrule, make fast decision of try then a few moments later show the definitive angle that shows no try but too late.

        Slightly paranoid as they love their 3 piece feed advertisement dollars. Maybe it's a pay as you go upstairs to the video ref arrangement.

        The SST referral though was an absolute farce. I was flailing all over the lounge room in excitement, sounding like a horde of Native Indians on horseback in attack mode, and then the pink munchkins had their little sewing circle and ummmed and arghhhed before referring it for no reason... it completely ruined the moment.

          Tbh, I don't have a problem with refs reviewing tries, especially now that the bunker is doing it much more quickly. You'd rather get the right decision than a quick decision.

          Still, wouldn't surprise me if our tries get reviewed more than other teams'. (That's not good.)

          Btw, yes Cummins reviewed Latrell's try, but he did send it up as a 'try'.

            That's not the worst of our problems, I'am getting sick of the continued dropping off of defence, letting opponents back into games, good sides just don't do that, we have been lucky to date that it hasent cost us a win, but sooner or later it will, a week of tackling practise might help get their mind back on the job.

              Even Cummins had a rye smile on his face when the boos rang out after going upstairs for what was about the 6th or 7th time yesterday.

                I thought Cummins had a decent game and he went upstairs on the SST try on the touchie's request I think.

                  Fair Dinkum! WHAT the HELL were they reviewing??? There was nothing! I don't think it is paranoia to say it smacked of desperately trying to find something to take it away from us. That guy does it all the time!

                    For anyone supporting Easts, why would any of this be a surprise

                    Apart from the obvious, maybe a Steggles KFC cross promotion lol

                      I don't think we get more or less reviews than any other team, probably every supporter feels their team is reviewed more than other teams as that's all they want to see.
                      I would rather reviews on every try and wish they could rule on obvious forward passes, nothing worse than everyone seeing a pass forward by 3 metres but it can't be ruled on. Yes, it may mean an extra 5 minutes during a game but at least the correct call is made and a team has won from correct calls. They still will get some calls wrong but it is better than what we have now.

                        Can I ask one thing?

                        Why the the touch judge on the other side of the field feel that the offside had to be reviewed on the SST try when the other touchie who was right there gave it the all clear?

                            Yes, me too. He was ok today. All the other farkwits called out to him.

                              Probably they have a protocol that if any of the officials has a doubt, the decision goes upstairs. Sometimes the closest touchie can have his vision obscured.
