I know they do, but if you think that makes yourself right i feel sorry for you again. btw i was joking in that post before.
Yes, Jizm, that does make me feel as though I am right.
Even the SMH are calling the reffing "dubious".

The penalty count was about right considering possession (60-40) and rucks (100-60).
What do the laws say, especially in light of the 'new' interpretations, about a tackler lying on the ground holding on to the tackled players leg?
I swear I saw Waugh doing just that to Sharpey(??) at one point.

You're a fucking moron
Oh
I was just joking so that makes it alright!
if you think i'm wrong for thinking the ref was not against us then i seriously don't care.
And you completely missed the point of the post M15, i don't know how you came up with that reply, you must be distracted by that kiddie porn in your other tab.
In the big picture we weren't robbed, but the majority of 50/50 calls did go against the force,
South Afrikaans just shouldn't refereee games.
It's stupid how they allow a change in the rules so a local ref can be the umpire for 2 local teams, and then we get a boer anyway.
Jazza - feel free to get down off your high horse any time soon.
You have read the laws of rugby - good for you. I am sure that if you send a PM to Ecky he will be able to advise you what courses you should take up with RugbyWA so you can be a Referee. I am sure when you are old enough you can be a great addition to the Senior Referee ranks.
you have an opinion and you have a right to express it - you do not have a right to belittle everyone else's opinion because it doesn't exactly match yours.

"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!" - Rocky Balboa
With the refs being held a bit more accountable for their decisions seemingly this season, I would just love to hear the ref formally answer Sharpie's question after penalising our scrum for the 3rd time on our ball in a scoring position: 'Why would we collapse our own attacking scrum?" His mumbled reponse of something about 'pressure' was complete nonsense. The answer is- we wouldn't. Benn Robinson very cleverly manipulated the situation twice more after getting that original call. Good on him. He's a great player. But a top level ref should have a brain capable of reason, an IQ high enough to be able to think rationally through such a situation and make the logical call- or at very least admitting that he can't work it out and resetting the scrum. He cruelled numerous try opportunities for the Force in this way. Having said that though, the Force cruelled themselves plenty of times too with dropped balls or turnovers right near the line... :-(
That was clearly a joke post exile, i know you can't read sarcasm but there is no need to start being extremely patronizing. All i did was say i watched the game again and i couldn't see much to complain about in the last 10 minutes, now if that offends people i am sorry. Seriously, if M15 or Bronski called you a f**king moron i doubt you would just respect their opinion lol.

I never thought I would say this but "bring back Kaplan"
Yea right
When the force collapse the scrum they get penalised when the tahs collapse the scrum they get a reset and the force gets told to keep quite
How can the ref not award a penalty try in the last 3 min for professional foul when Turner came of side to try and intercept the ball We got the penalty but it should have been a penalty try Turner was of side to prevent us from scoring that is the same as a deliberate knock down or any other professional foul 5 meters out!!!
There are many more just go watch a replay
