Consistency and good umpiring are two things the NRL has never had, and while Finchy is in control, will never have.

Having 2 umpires may help with the 10metre offside rule, since it changes from 6m-8m-12m each game, but it will also lead to more indecisiveness and more video ref wasting time (if that is even possible). Refs are too scared to make mistakes on tries, but seem to not care about getting every other call wrong with infringements.

The NRL could also save a tonne of money by getting rid of the Touch Judges, those morons who failed kindergarten are as useless as an underwater shower.

Easts have been grappling worse than any other team this year, but because Politis has such sway nothing gets mentioned about them, the focus is only on Melbourne who are the best at the technique, and sure they deserve to be penalised for it, but so too do the other 15 clubs that all practice the grapple and chicken wing tackles. </rant>

My team came in 9th this year, and that's about all they deserved. Buying a tonne of ex St George players gets you failure, after all thats what St George are good at.
