It astounds me the faithful still exist.
Absolutely incredible. Battered wife or Stockholm syndrome, no other explanation. I stopped watching and deleted the recording at half time. Am unlikely to ever watch another "Warriors" game.
They are going to get shafted by the officials or just be generally shit - both of those options make me kick the poor f'ing cat, who really doesn't deserve it and neither does RTS who has become a legend in my eyes.

At least the Police were at the game (taking part in emergency services league match). They can investigate the murder which occured in the middle of the field.
Froze my testicles at Mt Smart for that shitfest of a game which was over the moment Kearney put Tevaga in at hooker, instantly surrending the middle of the park to Raiders hooker Josh Hodgson who took full advantage.
Nothing good from it, every Warrior was shit while the Raiders have turned into a playoff caliber roster after realising their team of big boppers approach didn't work anymore.

It doesn't excuse all the shitty decisions that warriors management make, but you know this is true

It's unbelievable how little the NRL cares about credibility.
The perpetually suspended Sam Burgess (star player) whacks a guy in the head so hard he is missing this week with concussion. The panel reduced the charge to grade 1 and let him off with a tiny fine.

And meanwhile, a little boy waits

well, that was fucked, 3 tackles all the same with 3 different outcomes (star player received smallest "sanction")
What about Kikau the other week? It's like every week there is a new and random inconsistency in sanctions given

You all seem surprised that the average mental capacity of past and present players is reflected in the administration of the game.

the only thing that surprises is that they try and portray themselves as professional
Though i guess, when the only people who give even a little fuck about your game live along the one coast of one country, then you can pretty much do whatever the fuck you want really.
It started with "you need ex-players on the judiciary, only they have a feel for the game"
which has become
"oh yeah, league players are, in the main, complete deadshits"

Nothing less than you would expect from a regional sport. AFL are a regional oddity too. Are their judiciary as poor?

depends on who you talk to. They have far less to deal with. But fans will still tell you the judiciary have it in for their team.
