Let all the doubters keep doubting and those who believe keep believing.

We’re only interested in those in the bubble. Anyone who wants to come in the bubble, you can come in.

But you’ve got to keep believing.

As you consider yourself a rational speaker I would imagine you also consider yourself to be a rational thinker ? What do you think the RFL’s rationale is behind ordering officials to ignore certain types of cheating/ rule breaking when checking tries for possible offences ? You will know the Rugby Union officials in the video booth check for any offence in the build up to a try, what was the reasoning behind the RFL basically saying even an obvious forward pass should be ignored when reviewing a try that is “sent upstairs” ? What are they so scared of to allow the game to become a laughing stock ?
I know nothing about rugby union and care even less.

If you think the minutiae of different ways referees have of interpreting the rules makes the sport a 'laughing stock' then you're obviously more sensitive and easily upset than the average person.

You’re not thinking rationally Mr rational thinker. You’re letting emotion cloud your judgement. I asked you what you thought about officials being ordered to ignore infringements, not their interpretation of events. I’ll ask you the question again, what do you think about our governing body telling officials to ignore obvious infringements and why would they do that? Rational answers only please.

Have obscure RFL refereeing protocols really sent you over the edge?

Oh dear.
I’ll leave this one here if you can’t answer such a simple question. I would also advise a Collins English Dictionary for your next birthday.
Obscure definition; not discovered or known about, uncertain.
Not clearly expressed or easily understood.

The RFL’s ruling that forward passes cannot be penalised by the video ref is the exact opposite of obscure.i’d be flabbergasted if anyone else on here apart from you didn’t know about it or understand it.
D minus and a fail for you.

Re: 2025 | Proposed Rule Changes : Mon Oct 07, 2024 9:03 am  
Return the video ref decision to benefit of doubt to the attack if unclear. Limit replays to a minute.

Stop allowing players to lay in the way of the play the ball, as it enables players to slow down the dummy half getting the ball away.

Limit goal kickers to a minute from the try being awarded to take the conversion.

Any injury stopping the match needs to result in a substitution, HIA or green card whether the match is stopped by a doctor or the referee.

Stop allowing the video referee to judge on foul play.

Stop allowing referees to wave their arms telling players to get up rather than penalising the defending team for slowing the ruck down. It seems like the easy option for referees. Perhaps make the referees penalise the attacking player for cheating given how often referees wave their arms and blame the attacking player rather than the defending player.

It would be nice when tries are scored if referees could focus on not only whether a try has been scored but whether foul play has been committed too. All foul play seems to be forgotten when a try is scored and yellow cards / penalty tries / 8 point tries ignored.

Oh God this was all about video referees and forward passes :lol: . Absolute trivia compared to the real issues facing the game.
If this stuff triggers you so much then I worry what genuine refereeing errors do. Actually, I can probably imagine.
