As seen in Canberra’s win over Newcastle, or Melbourne’s incredible 22-year-straight opening round victories over premiers Penrith, Ryan Girdler observed how the playerrs themselves have been able to get around the officials.

“It’s been black and white until the dust settles with the obstruction rulings,” stated Girdler.
“I have a feeling that the refs will take back a little bit of discretion and I think that’s the perfect opportunity to do it.”

“If you take that away from them, you’ll see players stop doing it.”
“As soon as you draw a line in the sand, and players know what they can and can’t get away with, they’ll start making decisions,” added Wade Graham.
