I'm done. One of our best wins in years last night against a very good cockroach outfit and any enjoyment is killed off completely by more bitchin' and whinin' about the refs. Rant over!

That's exactly why I no longer order through Coopers (Aus Post also seem to kick the cans the whole way) AND why I'm currently raging at Grays online. They've switched to Aus Post and don't get how much of a hassle it is to have to collect a parcel v all other couriers following directions and leaving the parcel as per my instructions. Latest non-delivery was because "driveway too long". Aus Post are lying c#*#s in their final death throes.

I've had to send my BM controller to Germany at $76 (6 day trip according to AUSpost). Was that or 30-90 day shipping for $40. It's been sitting at Sunshine VIC since Saturday 1am.

Why? They do it every single game they lose irrespective of what the reffing is like. I remember a NSW colleague blaming the refs for the loss a couple of years ago when we dusted them to the tune of 50 points or so.
You know that the higher the shrill voices of NSW about the reffing, the more they are hurting and that can only be a good thing. Dont let it get to you, embrace the bitch.

The problem with Aus post (from a mate who is a postie) is that 99% of parcel deliveries are outsourced to "independent contractors" at really tiny piecework rates. They get handed a full van of parcels and a day in which to deliver them. He worked out once that once you take driving time into account they have about 30 seconds per delivery if they want to get them all delivered and make enough money to eat with. If they actually get the parcel out of the van (which isn't loaded in delivery order) knock on the door, wait for you, wait for you to sign, hand the parcel over there is no way they can make their round and not pick up a bunch of non delivery penalties. So they whack a card in the letterbox and drop parcels in bulk at the post office.
Anger should definitely be directed at Aus post but to the management and their sham contracting not to the poor sap who sticks a card in your box...

I worked there that night, never seen such a complete performance. By half time, there was almost a party atmosphere such that even cockroach supporters were high fiving our fans in acknowledgement of how good our mob was.

Guess you didn't read the balanced view published in the '11 ways the refs robbed NSW...' story on the Telegraph's website? Shocking; there were at least 15!
I've only ever had a passing interest in League, but the constant whingeing from so called fans when we lived in Sydney, whether it was Origin or their own NRL side, totally turned me off. Refs are human and they'll make mistakes, it's part of the game.

Yeah, who can forget them doing it during the playing of the national anthem when he was leading the Australian team against the poms? Quality fans. Don't know wyhy, but for some reason this year it really struck a nerve. You'd think we'd be used to it.
