It sure seemed it after watching the Dragons/Dogs NRL match! How BLATANTLY one-sided can you get??? The on-field refs must've needed new whistles at the half, they blew so many times against the dogs! Then Kimmorley gets 10 in the bin for nothing! Finally after they come back playing 13 on 15 for most of the game, the video ref takes HIS turn screwing them over! And now Finch comes out and says it should've been a try. Well, that's a relief, I can cancel the optometrist appointment I made this morning. But what's that do for the Dogs 2 points? What's that do for all the tickets people will now have torn up with money on the dogs???
I just thought it was karma for that Sonny Bill 2 man strip on Creagh 2 years ago at the gong. Ref said it was only 1 but it was most definately two. It all works itself out in the end anyhow. It was a good game.
Well, well well, the plot thickens. Fox Sports have edited the playback call of the last period of play to edit out the referees microphone. On Channel Nines live footage, referee Archer CLEARLY calls the last pass from Patten to Idris forward, which should have been a Dragons scrum. Even Hornby can be heard saying to Archer: "Sowies quick, but not that quick to get Patten".
Maybe they ruled obstruction to cover up the fact they didnt call the forward pass straight away? Very Weird.

Archer called the last pass forward? Funny that, because I didn't hear a whistle pulling up play until the Dragons went over and abused the ref. And yes, I suppose we'll just take Hornby's word for it that Patten "isn't that quick", too... It had nothing to do with Patten blowing by him, did it? And maybe look at the dragons first try if you want to see a try scored off a forward pass...

You're the only Dragon supporter I have seen sticking up for the refs on any forum across the net. Even they admit it was a terrible decision and the Bulldogs should have won, and feel sorry for robbing them of two points like that.
Congrats, you are the most one-eyed supporter on the planet.
