Nah thats not as bad as leatting in 34 unanswered points in the 2nd half to kill our season

That wasn't a forward pass that Wesser threw, it was a gridiron pass.

And it ruined my perfect round too!

Doggies and Eels seasons are over, and Newcastle and Canberra dont really have a chance either, so now it's down to about 9 teams to make the 8.

it makes amends from the mistakes made from the tigers game the week before. same ref.. one major stuff up... that determines the end result of the game.

seriously tho why are the refs a protected species.. lets hope they dont do something like that in the grand final.

No idea, but if anyone else was that incompetent in their job I'm sure they would be fired.
Minichello's try in the roosters game was a joke, he knocked it on and it was still given (didn't matter in the end, but still a terrible call).

Problem is Finch is crap, always has been, yet he seems to have the job for as long as he wants it. All these obvious mistakes and problems with the refs (and the touchies, they get away with making no calls) make the league look amateurish.

I actually posted on wests tigers facebook page that Souths won with a touchdown in the dying seconds of the game

There was more then one major stuff up. There were 2 in that game. That forward pass and right on full time Farah had the markers not square right in front about 40 metres out. Maxwell ahd the whistles in his mouth but didn't have the balls to make the decision.

Just tried to explain the McIntyre finals system to my father (a working class Italian)... I need a stiff drink.
