Referees stay ruining the game, what a surprise.

That’s a shocking end to the game. Absolute ineptitude from the ref. The marker who wasn’t square did not get involved, and let’s ignore the Bronco’s Great Wall.

While I commend the refs crackdown on offside, their decision-making across the board is simply woeful.

Raiders would have won their last 10 Golden Point games if we had been given penalties for opposition markers not being Square in extra time.

Talk about referees unconsciously trying to find a penalty for the team who drives the media pressure.

He can send field goal attempts to the video ref right? Why not review it and ask the ref to check the markers? Better than this debacle!

Classic case of the first marker holding his ground, and the second marker taking up the position directly in front of the Broncos play the ball.

The Broncos player played the ball at an angle, so the Tigers markers end up side by side. The infringement is really by the Bronco. Unless you want the first marker to follow the angle created by the Bronco, which would be ridiculous.

This happens all the time, and I've never heard a ref mention it, so I just assume they're inept. This adds weight to my view.

And of course, it just had to happen to the Broncos...

With such incompetent refereeing, I just hate golden point. It becomes a complete lottery.

Ah well they admitted it, so that's a good start at least.

Ryan James just tackles Hunt in the air after kicking it. Such a grub. James makes a second effort to ensure the full weight of his body is on top of Hunt's body. Should be a suspension.

Ash Taylor was carved apart by the dragons
The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.
