NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 25 - Take it to the betting thread you degenerates

I know it’s not an easy job at all but I feel the state of reffing is at an all time low. Compared to say a decade ago I’m seeing more errors now and not as much consistency. If they get blatant calls wrong they deserve to be scrutinised and not just go through 5-6 of them like Annesley does every Monday and smooth over the other 35 of them when there are at least 40 of them every week. Lots are over it many who support various clubs.

We should be aiming high but it feels the bar is set quite low currently.

Why don't you go do a refs course and give them a hand at setting that bar high then champion. There human just like you and me, they bleed the same colour blood and breathe the same type of oxygen. In terms of officiating, as Raiders fan we have had probably the biggest ref blunder in recent years with the six again call. Premishireship defining some may say. Is it that big of a deal though? The better team won that day and 9/10, the better team will win regardless of ref/bunker call. The real world isn't perfect nor is Rugby League - that's what makes it so entertaining. That's why we tune in to watch some tough bastards go hard for an 80 minute period. Sports is meant to be a release from the real world' and provide genuine smiles and happiness. Ref's don't go out there with the intention to make the wrong call or make a mistake - once again they are human - they make mistakes. Ref's have a pretty fucking tough gig these days and one slight error in judgment and they are on the front of the papers, top article on the sports websites and by the time their off the field and by the time they are off the field and open their phone - hate messages, death threats, family threats... That's fucking shit. Regardless how much they get paid.

You have a great outlook on the fantasy with a respected and valued opinion around here and I think majority here including myself love the passion for not only the Bunnies but rugby league you have. In saying that, the ref bashing must, stop, it's just lame and boring at this point and everyone is over it. Be better.

Jog on.

I’m worried about tohu, but then if you knee jerk him out and he guns for 80 you’ll be sad, very big dilemma

Yeah I'm really not sure how to proceed. If he's 50/50 it must not be too bad? Which makes me think to just hold him. Even if he played limited minutes this week I'm sure he builds up again? Torn.

Insert Natalia imbruglia gif

I’ve put in my two cents regarding the refs in the thumbs up/thumbs down thread

No way is the reffing worse. I watched quite a few retro games during COVID and the refs in the good old days were pretty ordinary.

Reasons we think it’s worse now:
The game is faster.
The cameras are everywhere.
The commentators/media are way more hawkish about refereeing.
Nostalgia
Not agreeing/understanding how referees are directed to do their job

This last line in particular.

It's not vlandys ball.any more. The ref's aren't going to call.6 again every time.a team is.offside or not square at.marker. they don't want 6 again after 6 again.

The reason they went back to 1 ref is so the interpretation and consistency is the same for each game. The ref will.let the odd one go but when they feel a team is taking the piss and then getting an unfair advantage they will ping them and the game.is a lot better for this. 21 was.madness.

Fair point but I’d love to see a graph on how many six agains each teams get would be interesting.

If one team infringes more than the other then
It won’t be the same, what would this graph show?

Collins 66
Walker 65
Nat 55
Cheese 48
Suaalii 40
Egan 39
Ted 19

Matto 58
Hop 51
Penis 42
Moses 35
Carty 33
Doorey 30
Hodg 18
Hands 16

(Guth TS still somehow given to Hopgood)

Penisini with a 42 and a sin bin? Impressive stuff

Take it to the Rabbits forum, dude, literally nobody on here cares that your forwards don't know how to win a ruck.

Don’t worry I’m taking it to the two discord forums I’m on onto the normal forums and onto texts to people and onto friends on Facebook messenger! I just wanted to see how the numbers look. And the last I’ll say on this matter on here then I’ll be quiet is JD I feel had a right to speak up, we have the least set restarts out of any team and yes I know part of it is a discipline problem on our end of what we have given away we need to fix but we don’t always get the rub of the green people say Souffs get it all the time! Well that’s false.

Anyway I won’t be calling out tomorrow night as I’m not well but I’ll be hoping we get a few set restarts.

Fuck me those new boy Dolphins and poor Sharkies getting absolutely dudded.

On a fantasy note I’m hoping might be able to keep Carty one more week.

As for Cheese I’ll watch him again next week he had 3 offloads tonight for 48, I’m still not convinced by his scoring.

Speaking of offloads would it kill hopgod to attempt one?

4 set restarts six agains in 4mins I’d pay anything for Souths to get that we are barely getting one in the whole 80mins!
