All we ask is the NRL and referees is for consistency in all games not selective games. too often lopsided penalty count help teams win when they were not so perfect in that game either.... also, when the refs make a mistake, it is ok to admit it and learn from it, stop insulting fans intelligence... Fans are what keeps this wonderful game going. consistency and respect for fans as well as accountability for refs is what we ask.

Inconsistent interpretations ruled the season.
The tackle and the ruck is an absolute disgrace. Referees have the tools to rule in these areas, and the entire rugby league community wants it fixed. What is stopping you guys? Are you under instructions not to from above?
Dont live on your knees! Make instinctuve decisions. Be brave! Out those responsible or fall on your swords. You are making a mockery of your chosen profession, surely something you had a passion for!
Hoping that you can rectify this for your very own sakes, and secondly for the game.

There is no excuse for the video refs to get it so blatantly wrong. Refs call is a joke too. Unless the ref states he has an opinion and wants to have something checked he has already declared that he has doubt and/or cannot make the call. If there is no clear video evidence either way the benefit of the doubt rule should apply EVERY time. Isnt that why there is actually a rule for benefit of the doubt. At least then it wouldnt matter if the video ref is drunk, has forgotten his glasses or been paid to ensure the outcome of the game. Its not rocket science boys. The video refs should start being fined for blatant errors. If the NRL put penalties in place they might actually do their jobs. These dishonest mongrels are a serious blight on the game. Its appalling to see any NRL team on the wrong end of some of the most incompetent video referee decisions I have ever seen in any sport.
