Sportswriters Brett McKay and Ryan O’Connell are screaming at officialdom in Episode 69 of the Cheap Seats podcast.
Some great #AskTheCheapSeats questions to kick us off, on home ground atmosphere, the return of rucking to rugby, saving the Reds’ season, and why anyone would contemplate becoming a referee.
Good Friday was anything but good for the Bulldogs, with their loss to Souths compounded by ugly on-field and off-field abuse of the referee and assistants. Were the bans long enough? Should Canterbury lose points for their crowd behaviour? It’s all covered, plus other less-abusive talking points from the NRL round.
There’s a wrap of Super Rugby, the opening round of the AFL, and the strange timing of Cricket Australia announcing touring squads for the both the Caribbean and Ashes tours, despite the tours being one and three months away, respectively.
Don’t forget, you can still join the Cheap Seats Tipping League. Beating these two remains a simple equation.
Get us on Twitter at @CheapSeatsPod and get your questions in for next week using the tag #AskTheCheapSeats. And stay cheap!
