Which is????????

I wasnt even stating rules are going against Saints.

I meant in general.

The kick out over dead ball line is a crap rule where you then start on your own 20.
The is it a knock on or was he going into the tackle is crap too, if its a knock on, it's a knock on.
Same with a forward pass, scrap the 'momentum' rule, if it is forward, it is forward, let's not get like rugby union where you can pass forward all the time.

I know, thats why i stuck up for you.

Steady pal.



Seriously though, there are aspects of the game which need looking at, before any more crazy systems and rules are introduced.

Think what you like pal, it's your opinion.

At the time, i didnt think that KC touched Stosic that much, but on reflection, something should have been done yes. It didn't help though that Stosic was being a soft git and "had he, hadnt he fractured his eye socket".

I have complained about referees, rules, RFL for more than 5 years, which co-incides with when we have finished top. Finish top, second, third, etc... it's irrelevant, the RFL needs to buck its ideas up.

Quote: OoOGazOoO "Yes mate, i can have a conversation without having Saints tinted specs on.

It's about time the RFL had some backbone.

Every now and then things happen within the game which question the integrity of the game and it makes it look a laughing stock.

It's no suprise that referees bottle so much on the pitch, when people above them in the organisation bottle it as much as they do and more besides.

The standard of officiating in the league is a joke, there isn't a single referee that you can say is 'good', they are all much of a muchness, and by that, i mean they're crap.

Some of the rules within the game are ridiculous and need changing, and the new playoff system is crazy too.

They have to stop being soft with suspensions, start officiating games better on the pitch, and also get rid of some crazy rules.'"

All of that

Plus this

Seems a bit of a Dummy Spit to me!

Whether he is right or wrong on some of those individual points is a different debate to me!

The same Panel that gave JJB 1 game also gave Mary 1 game, KFC None and Pryce 2 IIRC allowing him to play in the CC final a couple of weeks later.

When questioned about those decisions 99% of Saints fans defended them, you can't have it both ways!

I agree with you with reagrd to some of bull$hit the RFL come out with but I don't think you can have players coming out and saying what they like about referees/ the judiciary. As a professional, you just have to get on with the job.

As I said, I fully agree with you on one point, but there's no way any player form any should be coming out and saying things like that. It is the same as a coach criticising a referee and look what happened to Justin Morgan a few months back.

I agree.

Which is what i am getting at.

If an offence is committed on the field then they need to look at it properly without looking at the rugby league calendar 2/3/4 weeks later. "Ooooh he has a cup game here, he cant possibly miss that", and so on.

I agree with what you're saying, but JM was right.

That's beside the point.
