Sorry Mark, time to go. 47 points in 8 games is not acceptable, less than a converted try a match.
I won't be dragging my kids to this rubbish a week on Sunday despite us having season tickets. Better things to spend our time doing.

Not a peep from the club. They really are
burying their heads in the sand.

Griffiths controlled it well and very evenly i thought. Given he didn’t police the offside tightly for either side and Cas are hardly attacking well themselves them it surely also made it more difficult for Cas as well did it not? It cancelled any advantage either way out, they suffered as much as us.

Pretty sad and pathetic take that when someone doesn’t agree with an opinion they have an ‘agenda’. Thought you were better than that.

It’s not that I don’t agree with things you post on occasion but I acknowledged the there are issues that need foxing with the team and wanted a separate discussion on the officiating which I honestly think is putting fans away from the game.

The reply of playing victim mentality in part I thought aimed at me but that’s not the case at all. I’d already said there were key errors with Ashurst/Dagger etc that cost points but wanted to talk about the officiating without it leading to a blame the ref scenario.

As I said with so many calls in each game being wrong or poor I really think the investment isn’t sufficient in the officials. The technology isn’t there either to help them and in this day and age it should be.

Lets be honest every single club in pretty much every game in every sport since the start of time can point to where decisions have gone against them. It happens and as long as there is human interpretation it will also be thus so. They are not robots, they different people see things slightly differently even within the same rule framework. They really do tend to even out over time though.

Having increased technology at games would help to some extent but it’s hardly foolproof, look at the controversy VAR in football has caused as an example. Even in the NRL the bunker has cost millions and they still get plenty of things wrong. It’s only ever as good as the people operating it and people don’t get it right every time, or see things differently to others.

And its worth bearing in mind that Sky were willing to introduce a video ref at every game as part of this current TV contract but the money would be deducted from the current payments. But the clubs, including our own, turned it down preferring to have the money in their bank accounts which they were perfectly entitled to do. So they are as much to blame for the lack of technological investment as anyone else. Quite simply there isn’t enough money in the sport to do much more than they are currently doing. There are only 9 full time referees for starters and a couple of those are young rookies. Standards are pretty low i agree and there is much room for improvement but unless there is a willingness from all parties to invest significantly, and lets be honest if it hurts the pocket they won’t, then it won’t change.
