From that article: Angus Crichton back in the stands after his personal leave.

Good to see the guy coming right.

But only a few weeks ago weren’t the Roosters after salary cap compensation for his time off?

Dude it's the Roosters. They still have salary cap space from when Luke Ricketson retired.

Now Suaalii is going, they will have 11.5 million to spend.

It’s actually fucked how many games the Roosters win with favourable calls. Like you need the extra leg up with unlimited space as well.

Rewatch our game against them and it mind blowing how badly we were reffed out of the game. Mystery escort calls, not share at marker, random 6 agains and then no send off for Collins knocking out Ford or for suaalis dog shot on Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad.

How about the bunker pulling up Montoya for a head high shot 5 mins after it happened and just when the Roosters make the mistake?? That didn’t even get charged by MRC.

We have some very interesting discussions about conspiracy theories on our board. Most of us think it isn't a conspiracy but just plain incompetence. There seems to be some interesting data out there in terms of penalties awarded / given and which teams tend to be favoured more than others. There does seem to be a bias toward certain teams and you won't be surprised to hear two of them are Penrith and North Queensland. In fact, the Cows have been reaping benefits from the NRL for years, least penalised team and receive the softest draw year in, year out with most penalties awarded.

Just changing the subject a bit, can't wait for the Manly v Warriors game at Mt Smart Stadium this season. We have a big following in NZ, and our NZ fans have been left waiting for far to long.

You have to really watch the games to see how it goes down. Stats by themselves mean nothing

it could be that the refs/bunker are just incompetent 🤷🏾

Robinson calls for clarity on punishment for high shots

Roosters' Trent Robinson says the NRL must clarify how it will penalise high shots that result in concussion, following the hit that flattened James Tedesco.

Funny Robinson after clarity for punishments on high shots now, didn’t seem too interested when Lindsay Collins shoulder knocked Jackson Ford out without even a penalty.

They were also doing it to you last week against the dogs.

Dogs were garbage and only kept in it through constant penalties to open the game and then ridiculous calls like Kiks somehow not playing at the ball... even though that was literally all he was tackling.

I don't know how the warriors ended up winning that with the amount of crap going against them from the refs
