Could 18 penalties cost referee Ashley Klein the NRL grand final gig?
Grant Atkins can only be only 80 minutes away from overturning Ashley Klein at the NRL Grand final referee next Sunday.
Klein is responsible for the last three descents, but on Friday night, in the preliminary final between Melbourne and Cronulla, less than 18 penalties went under fire to blow.
Shark coach Craig Fitzgibbon said he deserved the storm and was a better party, but the title of the game would make it difficult to watch for fans-and hoped it wouldn’t be again next week.
Klein had to blow several times, the Harry Grant Sharks brochure was the 64th minute of struggling to quit a hip in Ronnie Mulitalo.
Mulitalo wandered for a few minutes, but he was able to finish the game. In Grant’s defense, even if the match investigation committee accused him on Saturday morning, he is likely to escape with a fine, especially because the Mulitalo is not seriously injured.
Last week, Klein labeled the Golden Point epic in Canberra, a week ago, a week ago, a week ago, where James Graham refused to sanction Viliame Kikau for holding Dylan Edwards his own accusation, but a week ago, a week ago.

Atkins will be the referee who broke the box office records at Suncorp Stadium and holds the box office with a small drama, and puts himself in the box seat to manage his first decision. Last weekend, the semi -finals between the raiders and sharks were shown to show faith.
Speaking after the loss of Friday, Fitzgibbon said, “To be honest, if this is a premium and if you want a big final to be punished 18, I don’t smoke about Ref, Melbourne was a better side, hands down.
