THAT video referee decision

[Tommy Smith]

Deadset the worst call of all time.

I know we won by plenty and loads of positives to focus on, but the major worry is if absolute garbage like that was to decide a Grand Final.

Firstly, he didn't obstruct anyone. Not even close. And secondly, and even worse, HE PLAYED THE BALL. And didn't freaking move.

What. The. Hell.

Just imagine that in a GF!

Have you ever seen a worse decision?

[Frozen Chook]

Agreed poor marker and A defender work gets rewarded with the ultimate donkey decision.

[Mickie Lane]

It wasn’t the worst decision ever but it should have been a try. I don’t know where Butcher was to suppose to move to.

[easts4eva]

Hands down shittest call this year. These c#nts seriously have no idea. No real feel for the game, or what fans expect.

[Rooster1908]

It just should not be possible to get those decisions wrong , blatant cheating

[stringaz]

It's all mercy crap. There is no place for it in professional sport. And it dosent help the poorer teams in the long run.

Only to keep fairweather fans tuned in and sports betting ticking over

I'm glad to see these high profile blokes are blowing up because I suspect Fox just giggled about it and said it didn't decide the game and let's move on.

Klein not giving a penalty also for Morris crusher , am I missing something, same thing last night got a pen

[The Marshall]

total WTF call, ridiculous call. The official should be stood down it was that bad.

[Mad_Rabid_Rooster]

Yes, it was an absolute disgrace, as I said elsewhere.

Imagine if it happened to the Storm, Souths, Parra or Penrith - the outcry would be relentless. The fact that it was against the Roosters - the silence will be deafening and telling. The inconsistency would be breathtaking, but not surprising unfortunately.

during the game greg alexander said something along the lines of 'i didnt really rate this video referee but this just confirms he's awful and should be in control'

the way these refs can just make consistently make the obviously wrong calls baffles me

[Hawkeye]

The worse video ref call ever was Bill Harrigan awarding a try to the Broncos against us (the game SKD scored 4 tries) when he clearly dropped the ball over the tryline.
Tonights c0ck up deciosion rates a close second !

[Grant Hedger]

Ashley Klein’s fault. He was making calls against us all night. Hates us. The guy is a dunce. He should be sidelined for being a fool.

My night was wonderful champagne footy across the park from all of our players, yet every time this maggot refs our games he makes me want to run him over, I lose my temper, (and I shouldn’t tonight was brilliant attacking footy) deadset cheats, one of the positives about the captains challenge is that it highlights how crooked some officials are, and if their not crooked, then their totally incompetent when is the NRL going to do something about this? How many incorrect decisions were made tonight by the Klown and his associates? 5? 6? 7? Losing count? Yeah that’s me.
Imagine if we had 3 Captains challenges Klown would be out of a job quick smart I hope this puts an enormous amount of pressure on refs they deadset deserve it, deciding games by robbing teams of fair tries (I understand not every decision will be the right one but that mercy rule bullshit was on full display tonight for the world to see, this is ****en embarrassing we have the dumbest and most crooked officials ever).

[OMR]

total WTF call, ridiculous call. The official should be stood down it was that bad.

Wasn’t Maxwell stood down few weeks ago for a similar BS decision and the NRL came out and acknowledged his f@*k up?

[Rooster_6]

Maxwell has been all over the place recently.

I think the bunker cop and unfair wrap a lot of the time but this season there's been some real basic shockers. Tonight was no different.
