Jeez the refs have a masive impact on the game of RL - commentators appeared flabbergasted with heaps of the decisions. video refeereeing appears to be used for some stuff but not all and then the video ref ends up guessing. Hope the AFL doesn't go down the video ref path

Agree, though the same thing during the match. Makes you realise how well the AFL GF umpires performed, the NRL ones were ordinary.

The video ref system has been a big success,unofortunately Harrigon was doing it last night & he has made way too many misstakes in the last few years so he should never do the big games if any at all.The ref's weren't great but the Dragons were deserved winners.

Dragons did deserve the win but should not have got first try, roosters first try was questionable, dragons got another try after a penalty should have been conceeded, then they get another try after a knock-on is allowed. Dragons forwards were simply too good but refs have way too much influence in that game

Was the pregame entertainment any good?

Didnt see any pre-game on C9
The half time helicopter was an absolute bore.
Nice sentiment, just incredibly dull tv
 
Thurston just cannot stay off the front pages up in QLD, then again the Townsville Bulletin has a story on the bloke nearlty every second day in the off season.
 
Sluggish performance by Aussies against Poms Sunday night.Kiwis look the side to beat at the moment.Boyd should be in Aust side,Sheens should be chopped.
 
Hhhmmmm

More trouble for the NRL. Star Raider caught in a shocking photo apparently. Haven't seen it yet, was posted up by a media outlet but has since been removed.

Anyone know anything more?
