When being interviewed by the BBC [ibefore[/i the French game Sheens was whinging on about the officiating from the previous week.

Australia haven't lost yet despite all these terrible officials who aren't Australian and called Shane Hayne, in fact they seem to have done just fine and topped the group stage of the competition.

And there is no politics at play – it was a coin toss.

That doesn't solve anything, he'd probably whinge that it was an English coin.

It was a double headed coin the RFL actually borrowed from Del Boy off Only Fools and Horses according to Tim Sheens.

No, it would be more like the Australians have the best s, they toss harder than anyone else, they have the World Champion Tos=white[size=9.[/sizeser, holder of the Golden Tissue, and he can't understand why the best tos=white[size=9.[/sizeser in the world wasn't appointed to do the tossing.

Hayne can't referee, he's not used to the sole referee system that international rugby is played under.

Sheens has been reading about Alex Ferguson while he's been over here.
Sadly for him, Sheens doesn't have the credentials or reputation of ferguson.
Stop whinging or retire, in fact, the aussies have been toss so he can do both. Ganson's better than Hayne anyway, it's just that Sheens has realised his pack is too soft

Sheens has already whinged about the refs after the england game, saying that his boys had a few too many bruises..........

Pretty poor how they do this every year.

Does anybody actually know what happened that they are so miffed about?

Poor loves.

I'd guess Lee Smith was involved in a few of them so they don't need to worry about him. He was winding Slater up all day with little digs on the floor.

You'd think they were totally clean mind. Sam Tomkins was getting little sly digs all day long from the likes of Hodges and Gallen.

It's part and parcel of the game the big sheila's

The Aussies have been arguing all tournament trying to get Hayne gets the final. Thats why they are kicking up a fuss again. It's only them moaning. They call us whinging poms!

The first game Hayne reffed he seemed to call Held almost as soon as the players made contact in the tackle - he didn't allow any time for the players to go to ground or offload in the tackle - he seemed far to keen to start the ptb.

If we do get Hayne, there's only one team who this will favour and I can see why the aussies are desperate to get him - nothng at all to do with a few 'sly digs' which they did more than their fair share of.
