NRL 2023 + Internationals

Warriors get the win, 24-12 over the Bulldogs.
The refereeing of the contest for the ball in the air is like chalk and cheese between league and rugby.
DWZ was jumping to take a catch, Bulldogs player comes in underneath him and takes him out and it’s play on.
While he didn’t land badly, it’s a definite penalty and probably yellow card in rugby.

The One dude's comments came to fruition - reckon the Warriors were on the right side of the 50/50s this week.

@Nepia yep a couple went our way..
probably our best first half all year..second half we had no where near the same intensity but still stayed on the game.
thought young Volkman played ok too, really muscled up in defence too
now the bye, then a depleted Broncos in Napier..surely we can take that..lol...surely?

I watched the last 20 mins and it wasn't a great spectacle.
I see that Walters isn't happy with the ref from their game last night vs the Storm. The same ref who did the Warriors-Panthers game. Is he also on work experience?
One of the storm players came in as the third tackler and hit broncos player in the ribs. Andrew Johns alluded to similar incident the week before when one of our boys got sin binned

@canefan It was the sin bin of Carrigan that Walters was most pissed off about. Bellamy agreed it should not have been a sin bin.
Did the ref consult the bunker?
No idea as I didn't watch the game. My comments were based on a Newshub sports story on the news last night.

I can accept refs get calls wrong. What was pleasing last night was the bunker corrected the ref's obviously incorrect calls in the Warriors game. As they should

Of course and the bunker said hip drop and sin bin. Review after the game let Carrigan off, but it doesn't change that they were down a player in the game.
Having said that a Reece Walsh shoulder charge which not only wasn't penalised but no sin bin and it was in act of scoring a try, should have been penalty try. Some people think it was similar to Slater in 2018, but we don't play under 2018 interpretations and everything this year points to that being a shoulder charge. Bunker involved here too.
Again review after game has it as a shoulder charge and Walsh fined.
Bunker made some absolute shockers, not helped by the ginger work experience kid, but it does show its not just the wahs this happens too...

At least it wasn't all one way I guess, so they weren't victims of Warriors level "unconscious bias." But it is exasperating that someone can look at multiple replays from multiple angles and still not come up with the most reasonable decision

I guess he will be set for some time on the sidelines now. Get RTS on the phone, we know he isn't up to much.....

This story looks like ageing poorly for Paul Kent.
