It should come as no surprise that I completely disagree with you.

I'm as sick as JT with all these shonky refereeing decisions.


A referee isn't some omnipotent being who is right all the time every time. These people aren't gods.

They make mistakes.

Lots of them.


Barry McKenzie feels it's correct they are made aware of these mistakes.

The ref had a shocker and he knew it. That's why Thurston got away with it.

So change the rules of the game then... specifically section 15, para 1.g...

I'll spare you looking it up, it is part of the definition of misconduct - 'disputes the decision of the Referee or Touch Judge'. Misconduct is punishable by a penelaty and, at the refree's discretion, 10 minutes off the field.

I agree wholeheartedly.

The rules of the game should be changed immediately.

Just because a referee makes a decision it doesnt mean its correct.


I applaud JT and indeed anyone else who reminds officials that they have made a mistake.

I'm sure that, now you have pronounced, the powers that be will immediately take action. Well, at least in your dreams.

Lets hope so Jimbo.

Barry McKenzie doesnt like to brag about his connections but lets just say the good people at GPO Box 3498 are aware of my concerns


Hopefully 2 of the biggest names in League (McKenzie and Gallop) can sort this issue out once and for all.

Well, when you and your chum set up your anarchistic little haven, please let me know where it is so I can avoid it.

How can you call Thurston a 'big girls blouse'? The guy takes the field with men 3 or 4 stone plus on his weight. He shines in every game and is just a awesome talent in general.

The lads got passion which all great players have. Farrell and Sculthorpe used to whinge at Refs aswell.

And non of them could have competed with Shaun Edwards and his little tirades when things didnt go his way.

In short he deserves what he gets , this isnt football.

Nah Sinfield by a country mile and then some!!!
