In recent seasons it has become apparant that on numerous occasions the standard of reffing in Super league has been way below what is expected of the fans and players. The level of inconsistency has been noticeable by all and when coaches or managers have spoken out about this the RFL have imposed unreasonable fines. Is it not part of human rights that each person has the right to freedom of speech? Obviously not according to the RFL.
Should the Super League referees maintain more consistency and unbias in many matches the coaches would not have to speak out and until something is done about this the referees in our game are going to continue with their bias and ruin the game for so many. How many have come out of a match angry due to the abysmal standard of the referee in a match, well now is time to speak out and maybe we will be able to enjoy our game as it should be!
The feedback from the stands is clear because too many matches are being decided by poor officiating rather than the players on the pitch. I am preparing a formal dossier of these recurring officiating errors to present directly to the league office. Post this link on your Facebook page and email your team representative today to demand accountability.

The momentum we have generated proves that the fans are tired of this inconsistency. Post the link to your Facebook page and demand that the RFL finally address these standards.

The refs have been shocking all year. Ruining the game for the fans who pay good money every weekend.

Absolute joke. They change the rules every single week and nobody knows what a penalty is anymore. Sort it out.

FINALLY someone said it. The RFL just love to hand out fines instead of fixing the actual problem on the pitch. PATHETIC.
