Really thought Darby could have had that one in the end zone. Didn’t have to request the channel at BWW in grand forks, it was ready to go. I find most DB’s struggle with catching fastballs coming right at their mid section. Not an art they have mastered.

I agree they certainly aren't on the take...but maybe some bias in the ranks? Moreso tho likely just an example of the crappy refs in the league...I know this time and age it's being harder and harder to get good officials...mainly at amateur ranks...but C'mon...that was truly a sad display...with such a weak call on the Bryant hands to face..where he basically just overpowered his guy cause that's what he does...to WJ cleanly beating his guy and having his ripped off..and he gets penalized...how does the CC not step in there? And how does a ref miss that...does he think WJ pulled it off himself to gain some kind of advantage??..like really? Kudos to WJ for not sqwuaking about it on field and flailing around looking for a penalty but instead just taking care of business Oh I’m sure you’re right, they’re just awful in general, but maaan. Some of those calls, or missed ones were downright idiotic. Skimming through the replay and I still can’t believe the collective incompetence of these guys. Agree, good on the team and the coaching staff for not bitching about it on the field Edited June 17, 20232 yr by JohnnyAbonny

It's the simpler explanation. Yeah - on that return they just saw a Rider go flying face first and threw a flag. I can’t remember ever using a challenge on an illegal block before.
June 17, 20232 yr comment_637850 The refs were so bad that even Suitor at a few points was like WTF. That's when you know it wasn't being called fair.

Yup...huge key in our success....and even on a big play hardly mug for the camera like some teams Another key on that punt return...watch the smarts by Houston right at point Grant gets control of the ball...to make sure he did nothing to cause a penalty...that's a well.coached team...and evidence of guys playing for each other

Looked to me like he was talking to a teammate on the sidelines and discussing his chest. Seemed to be in some pain. 12 hours ago, Tracker said: A bit ugly, but a win is a win. Back to school for the defensive backs, though. 22 was being taken out to the wood-shed repeatedly. That's gotta get fixed.
June 17, 20232 yr comment_637863 anyone remember the name of the ref that was cheering with the crowd at a riders home game a few years ago? hope that guy is gone.

June 17, 20232 yr comment_637865 Reading a thread on Suitor's anti Rider bias on Riderfans is proof we are living in a simulation.

June 17, 20232 yr comment_637874 Hometown reffing is pretty common in the CFL, and yes we benefit from it at home as well.
June 17, 20232 yr comment_637875 It's been proven scientifically that refs have a bias in their officiating towards the home town whether intentionally or subconciously.
June 17, 20232 yr comment_637878 Did Lanier even play the full game on that vaunted Dline...didnt hear or see.much from him all game...and Micha Johnson looks like he has let himself go...was sucking wind all game and pretty useless other than something directly in front of him...looks like he trying to become a flabby slob looking guy like that Putz Dabire Sure must be hard to be vaunted against someone not named Cornelius....or against an average online

He had a hard apprenticeship last year with some iffy game performances, but this year in the two games so far, he has been solid. May never be an all-star but good to have him on the roster.
