NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 82 - Baggie Time

How much are the Broncos paying the ref?

More than Warriors are paying their goal kicking coach to train Pompey

It would be a 1-try game if he’d kicked all the conversions but has 0/3 (albeit all from sideline)

Not as much as the Wahs clearly….
Haven’t been onside all night….
Imagine a Tohu charge down when he doesn’t even have one good knee.

Ref definitely on the take, missed a 2 meter forward pass!!

It's incompetence not corruption but it was pretty damn incompetent.

If you were going to be corrupt, you'd do it in a less obvious way (unless you were incompetent at being corrupt, which is a possibility).

I’ve always thought it’s going to take an absolute howler in a finals game to have the rule overturned. I can’t believe the video ref still can’t rule on forward passes

Where was the professional foul for the Warriors you cheating bastard?

Will they finally change the rules on forward passes after that joke? Sutton been fucking us all game like I knew he would. Broncos slowing down the play the ball all game but they get penalty for nothing on 2nd tackle that led up to Farnsworth try. Warriors not allowed to win NRL ever

Hate winning like this, but it’s a shame that the calls are going to dominate the discussion, because we’ve been the better side regardless.

Yeah can spend 5 minutes trying to work out whose fingernail touched a contested bomb first but can’t pull up a pass that was thrown on a 45 degree angle

Hasn’t made a difference, fortunately. Broncos too good

I can't remember a season with so many ridiculous forward passes that I've thought what is the actual point of touch judges and Sutton called a forward pass from Egan first half that wasn't even flat it was backwards

Aside from the forward pass, most interesting/concerning call for me is Egan back on the field. Pretty clear Cat 1 IMO

Warriors 1st 6 again in the last 5 minutes.

Its a game of momentum. If a side is gifted all the momentum, they easily win.

Going to be a great game next week.
Wahs got 90% of the calls tonight and still got pumped by 30 with half the good Broncos team on the pine.
Panthers and Broncos seem equally matched.

Come off it mate, it’s a 30 point game, it takes more than a few dodgy decisions to account for that spread
