Don't ask for us to do it every week, dont even expect us to win every game, but you can't say the refs cost us a game unless we put ourselfs in the position for them to do it.

That game was horrible... We didn't deserve to win with the amount of dropped balls we had. Go back and check the completion rate of the game. We cost us that game. Not the refs.

don't agree.
in a game of footy, what happens happens. the refs job is to adjudicate the game according to the rules. the players play to the rules and know they're to be penalised when they don't. when a player picks up the ball in an offside position, or is in front of the kicker at kick, they know it's a penalty. sure, in those games the Sharks might not have "sealed the deal" with their own sexcellent play, but the opposition sealed it for them by committing said offenses at crucial moments. problem was that the refs failed both times to rule on it. that cost us 4 premiership points.

but right now, i'm drinking single malt scotch neat, i'm pissed off, the sharks are a bunch of poofs...suck me on the sav.

Did not read. To angry at the world. Trying to decide what type of rope to use.
