       Next week: Parcell > Lichaa

    Why the fuck do you want to trade out Hastings and Parcell?

    Yep. MCL anyway so worst case probably 6 weeks. Not season ending anyway.

    A mixture of players lying down to win penalties, players being penalised and put on report for 'tackling too hard', the bunker constantly getting decisions wrong, referees sending EVERYTHING to the bunker in the first place and now the judiciary/match review committee has gone and topped it off.

    How can players like McKendry, Foran, Adam Reynolds, Klemmer plus countless others be charged for contacting the referees, yet Thurston and King Cammy Smith be totally let off the hook altogether? Are they fucking serious? I have had enough. This is the biggest punch in the face to the regular fan. What are the NRL as a whole playing at? This is as blatant as it gets. Looking after the elite echelon of players at the expense of everyone else.

    I am sick of tearing my hair out day by day at decisions by NRL officials - both on field and off field. I have had enough and I'm sure alot of you have as well. Enough is enough. Todd Greenburg needs to step in and straighten this mess out. I have grave fears at where the game of rugby league is heading. We are losing fans.


    Agreed. The ref touching is the most clear cut example of a double standard in the history of anything ever.

    RUOK SI, your a bit delusional. Tigers don't buy good players, and besides, good players don't want to go to the Tigers either Bang But I like your thoughts

    Haha, indeed. Too many quality backrowers at the Tigers as it is anyway Lol

    I would fix up this shit. Smith touched a ref so deserves a week off. Simple. He is in my Fantasy team and would suck it up.

    Trading Parcell for Lichaa is so sideways it's backwards imo.

    Hastings to Hunt is my plan also with Pearce returning, but I'll get a week to see how urgent it really is.

    Shhhh you arent allowed to bad mouth smith, everyone knows with him its always someone elses fault. Whether its salary cap rorting (hey i am just a dumb player i dont know how it works), punching a kiwi player square in the face while he was on his back (he was holding my jersey and i was trying to break his hold) all the way up to his most famous line, "he ducked his head into the ground".

    Smith is the true master of spin, i reckon the referee would get the weeks suspension before smith

    If it wasn't for fantasy, I think I would have given up on league long ago.

    I am generally fairly tolerant of refereeing errors, but the double standards between Smith/JT and the other plebs is just ridiculous. As well as inconsistent grading such as Taupau only getting a week.

    Is Bodene classed as a keeper? I've had him previous years.

    6 weeks would be a bit different for me, but will probably still hold until after the rep weekend at least. Seems to have too much upside when fit.

    Any of you stats gurus have Hastings' numbers from end of last season when playing alongside Pearce? I took last year off fantasy so I have no idea what to expect

    I should clarify, I haven't read or heard anything, was just saying would be worst case.

    Mckendry incident

    If you were to tell me that 1 of them got nothing and 1 got a week... would have to say smiths looks worse, he deliberately moves a referee out of his way

    Pearce and Hastings never started together

    Hastings played alongside Maloney a few times when covering for Pearce.

    There's a sticky thread at the top of the forum with links to spreadsheets with the last 2 years worth of data in them if you want to research stuff yourself.

    Yeah that's cool, could still be worth a hold. Might downgrade Gordon or Fergo.
