and sweep over it and brush the captain off by saying, it’s been ruled on and I’ve explained it already (when neither the ref or captain understood the explanation).
Maybe we should go back to the old Test days where the ref was from a neutral country (like France) and couldn't speak English!. Would probably stop all the confusion.

... and the play. Love the French refs and the 28-3 penalty counts.

Naden just jealous cause he a **** player in a **** team

As for NRL officiating - why would they change something that they don't perceive to be a problem? Nearly every season there is a serious **** up or 2 that they say sorry for and explain away and move on. Isn't gunna suddenly be different cause it's 2022, when your pile of **** has been building for over a decade, what's another turd added to the top of Mount Shitmore ?

Structural and personal changes would be hard work, expensive and messy.
Who gunna wanna put up their hand to rock the apple cart and take on that behemoth task?

As for foreign refs - I like them. Gives me the feels and illusion of watching a sport that used to take itself seriously instead of a bunch of clowns taking the piss out of players,coaches and fans.

I'm backing Tracey against Morgan Harper every day of the week. I think we will be going down the left all game anyways so I don't really think it matters too much if it's Ikuvalu or Miller on the right wing. Maybe advantage Miller late against their big lazy forwards without Jurbo there or something.

Morgan Harper is now playing right centre and will be up against Ramien
Tracey will be on the rookie
