Roosters' success does not refute the claims being made in regards to penalties received. It is another strawman argument from King Strawman.

OK. So, in summary, (a) it's Jarred's fault; (b) the relentless flogging by the referees has only lasted 14 years (actually it's closer to 20) and that's not long enough to cause concern; (c) in the 1990s the refs were nice to Phil Gould (maybe less so when he tried to get his team to walk off after one outrageously one-sided refereeing performance); (d) there can't be anything wrong with the refereeing because we continue to win games; and (e) Robbo, Ricketson and Politis are mischievously attempting to manipulate the referees to get an advantage going into the finals.
Thanks for clearing that up. I won't argue with any of that.

That phrase that goes something like 'In the end, it all evens itself out' is just BS as far as I'm concerned because we've been waiting for that to happen for over a decade. I feel that had we had a fair & balanced officiating for all of those years, it would have been easier for us to win more trophies...and I used to be one that thought that the whinging about referees here had no basis but after those results published during the week, I now change my opinion. What happen last week and last night with the no sin bin and the 'I saw nothing' from Klown and Peranara is just more evidence that there is this unconscious bias from the officials.
