[QUOTE="Cruz_del_Sur, post: 1101101, member: 55747"] Not ' might', they were. It is amazing how you harmoniously throw the ref's consistency out the window, every time, every bloody time it serves your team's argument. You dont even flinch. And sure, every time your case is [I]surprisingly[/I] different, unrelated, unique in some way that requires a complete and radically distinct analysis and aplication of the laws. The convenience is astounding. Again, and again, and again. When a ref calls something dubious, greyish against the team you support you innevitably bring up similar instances from opossing team or other games. You cry foul, scream and whine. The lot. You put that tin foil hat you adore, spit a conspiracy theory and call whoever opposes your view anti nz. But when the dubious call favours your team you're capable of digging up the most obscure rule and stick to it no matter what. ' rules are rules', 'two wrongs dont make a right', etc. Sugar coat it the any way you want. [/QUOTE]
