We all make mistakes and I don’t expect officials to get everything right 100% of the time.
They will make errors. Especially in a fast paced sport like RL and it must be very difficult to police a game.
But a high percentage of the errors are against us and some are clear things (crusher tackles) that they shouldn’t be getting wrong. Especially with technology and the assistance they receive.
I appreciate people saying our discipline needs to be a lot better and yes it should. But this is in giving away stupid penalties like Rapana high tackle and Ashworth not being square at marker but tackling Woolford when he ran at him. They are dumb plays. Same as Knight. That was a dumb play.
We need to be smarter but also keep some physicality about us.
I can accept errors from the on field official but the VR has time and multiple angles to get it right and regularly doesn't and it's spoiling games and costing teams points (us anyway). It's also the lack of consistency. One week an offence will be a card, the next it's not even penalised. I also think we're going to get to the point soon where players will clock up enough points to get a ban and then further bans follow quickly after due to the way the points system works
