Controversial refs removed from S14 2010 by Sanzar

[AMG133]

Wasnt in the office yesterday to comment but good move, we dont need morons that dont know rules in the game...

I'm going to take two guesses that the said individual may well be a Bulls supporter.... I have always questioned the average intelligence of said fans!

Why? I will bet my last dollar that the BULLS fans on here are collectively smarter than the sharks collective. Hell, I will bet that Devill is smarter than you. And I will in fact question your specific intelligence, based especially on this remark and several others where the only thought you can manage is to divert attention from the issue. Pro's "suspension" for a start had little to do with your game but more with his overall performance thus far. Not everything bad in rugby is about the sharks although, it must be said, the sharks are about everything bad in rugby.

Much love
Greg

Aye, Lance is a pretty clever oke as far as I can tell from the last few years.

He's just a bit set in his ways.

Generalisations and going with stereotypes perpetuated out of jealousy and mischief are not, IMO, pretty clever...

Typical stormers sissy!

Aye, that was last year.
Now we're kicking ass.

This year I'm giving the Sharks as much kuk as I can.
Hopefully the Bulls later as well, but they're frikking good though.

 

[GreGorGy]

Aye, that was last year.
Now we're sticking ass.

Fixed.

Yes, lovely to see the top 4 has two local berths. Must be honest, I am surprised to see that the goats are one of the two. Maybe I will even go south later this year and spend some time in Ape Town to watch my boys win at newlands....

Just gotta be careful that they don't get bought out while they're there.

In every rugby match I've ever watched at any level, I've see a ref getting something wrong, and I've see a player getting injured.
Those 2 things will always happen.

We are not talking about "getting something wrong" here. We are talking about two instances where the result of the match has been affected. It means the Sharks have now lost four. Instead of, at worst, lost two, won two. Big difference to the season.

Ha ha well your "intelligence" is definitely beyond doubt then... as far as I am aware Legota has refereed for 120 minutes in this Super 14. 40 minutes of those were the Sharks game. Seems that his performance in that game may well have played a part considering it was one of his ONLY two performances this year!

AAARGH!!!

You have a habit of making me glad that the sharks suck nuts. I said LITTLE to do as in 40/120 minutes = 33.3% if you want to take it at a mathematical LITTLE level. However, my feeling is his second full match show was his undoing more than anything else, where several TMO references exposed his LACK OF CONFIDENCE caused, IMNSHO, by the over-reaction of the pathetic shark mass to his first duty.

Goooo BRUMBIES!!!!

 

[LancelotSA]

...and to think us Sharks supporters were stupid enough to fully support Bakkies when he was suspended. I suppose it is to be expected of us as by all accounts we appear to be far more patriotic to any South African team than the fans of some other teams here.

I can also see why the Bulls fans have no problem with refereeing decisions as we are all fully aware that they won a Super 14 title as a result of some shocking referee calls. The Stormers needn't be mentioned as they usually aren't in the running anyway. Maybe this year with all the money they threw around to buy decent players from elsewhere they might actually do something... I won't be holding my breath though.

Some fat loser sharks supporters cry to the mods when anyone says something bad about the sharks.
Amazing!

I won't allow you to argue with yourself. Just now, you will request your own posts get deleted.

 

[Devill]

I'm in totally agreement! How can someone post an article which refers directly to the Sharks match and the specific incident and then ask someone to stay on topic when they discuss this exact thing! Really laughable! I'm going to take two guesses that the said individual may well be a Bulls supporter.... I have always questioned the average intelligence of said fans!

For Devill's benefit here is the article he quoted again. The parts referring to the Sharks game are in bold (oh wait, that is all of it!) :

Yes blame the ref as that one call must make the sharks a super team. Imo yes the ref made a mistake but hell the sharks are utterly shlt this season up to now.

Oh, and while we are at it, I'd like those who had a go at me about being a typical whinging Shark regarding the following post in the Super 14 thread to please put their hands up too :

Funny that Legota has now been "punished" too! So it appears our "whinging" may be totally valid after all!

Here is one of the culprits

ROFL Like I said Naka told the cheetahs not to compete for the ball at break points.... thus the only ones that could be punished was the sharks. Wake up lance....

Next you are going to try and tell me Ruan Pienaar is a better Flyhalf than Morne Steyn?

Aye, Lance is a pretty clever oke as far as I can tell from the last few years.

He's just a bit set in his ways.

Lol, yeah kind of like Juliass....

 

[porchrat]

You harped on about the mistake. This was not the the topic up for discussion

There was no mention of "well done Sanzar" or "Bad call Idiot Sanzarian race that is lower than snake ####".....



You comment on the call he made. Not on the topic up for discussion.

We all know he made a bad call.

So get all your toys back in your cot.

How do we all know he made a bad call? I didn't see that presented as an assumption in the OP...did I miss those statements? Could you please point them out to me?

Unless I declare upfront whether or not I believe the call was an error and supply reasons for my stance how can you then establish why I agree with him being suspended or not and whether or not my opinion is an informed one or not?

The thread is about his being suspended. That clearly includes whether or not you agree or disagree with the reasons for his suspension in the first place. I believe my agreement with his suspension was implicit in my response. If you couldn't see that then I am afraid it is your tentative grasp on the English language that is to blame.

At the same time I then proceeded to further clarify my agreement with his suspension with what I saw as inconsistencies in the decision (yellow card and yet no penalty try). What better way is there to discuss this issue? Are you saying all you were looking for was a thread full of what boils down to responses consisting of nothing but an elaborate "yes" or "no" without an explanation or supporting statement?

Also guys why on Earth are you fighting? This thread just seems to have devolved into a mud-slinging flamewar.

What fighting?

Mud-slinging?

//Yawn

You were moaning some more bout the sharks losing.... simple. No discussion about the Sanzar call nor you opinion on it, you only stated how he (the ref) made the wrong call. We all know by now he made the wrong call.....

Ps I was showing Lance the facts.... He is a die hard (good for him) sharks supporter and would rather die than admit the sharks was at fault for their failures this year. You seemed to fall into the same mould... I ask your forgiveness if this is not the case.

I made no mention of the Sharks losing and my feelings about that that I can see. Seems like an assumption on your part. Could you please point this part of my post out?

If I did say that I definitely did not mean to. What is done is done, the Sharks lost and even if that decision had resulted in a penalty try I don't know if it would have actually meant the game. The way the Sharks were playing it is not impossible that their opponents would have scored a try within the next 2 minutes and some change that remained anyway.

I find that assumption offensive and honestly I don't see what I have said that could create that impression as I never mentioned anything to do with how I felt about the Sharks in my first post, merely how I felt about the ref's decision and the circumstances around it at the time. Perhaps you missed this post:

Lol yea Sharks are seriously sucking this season. Playing like a bunch of pansies.

In fact I am pretty sure Plumtree's new strategy involves coating the players hands in butter and giving them all concussions before they run onto the field

Seems like I am more than willing to admit that the Sharks are playing rugby like a bunch of mongoloids.

Thank you though. I graciously accept your apology.
