Trent Robinson has taken aim at several refereeing decisions after the Roosters found themselves at the wrong end of multiple contentious calls in their loss to the Panthers.

Asked by the media if he thought Hugo Savala’s double-movement in the early stages of the opening half was in fact a double-movement, he agreed with the call.

However, he believed Savala should have been awarded a penalty after it appeared Dylan Edwards collided with the back of his neck.

“A double movement, definitely, but there were high shots from people falling constantly,” Robinson said post-match.

“He got hit and crushed it on the back of the neck. I don’t understand that one.

“The double movement definitely – his arm hit and then he did reach out. But contact to the head in that position. There were quite a few against us for that reason.”

Robinson was particularly perplexed by the Bunker’s ruling that it was an “incidental crusher” tackle.

This saw him question the interpretation of the precarious decision.

“I’ve never heard incidental crusher is still a crusher. That’s not words that I’ve heard,” Robinson added.

“I think incidental contact but that doesn’t matter if you crusher someone.”

The Roosters coach also made it clear he was unhappy with a number of other decisions made by the officials throughout Sunday’s clash.

This included several high shots on Roosters players, a tackle on Billy Smith, and two other “sliding” incidents he deemed his side should have been awarded penalties for.

“I think the one on Jenkins on Billy’s [Billy Smith] knee that didn’t hit and then we had two sliding ones,” Robinson added.

“I think in the context of the game, I think that was a penalty in front.”

Speaking about the Tricolours’ performance, he praised their ability to go toe-to-toe with the premiership favourite.

“I thought we were outstanding. I thought we gave probably just a little bit more possessions,” Robinson added.

“I think the last plays were pretty clean on their sets and we probably had two to three errors sort of on the end of sets and then there was a few penalties there for high tackles that gave them field position.

“That sort of swung it in their favour and we had to defend it. We did, 12-all for that second half, and then it was, are you going to execute?

However, he felt they lacked the execution, especially when Nathan Cleary was sent to the sin bin.

“Guys will go to the bin and if you think that’s an automatic score then you haven’t been watching footy over the last couple of weeks,” Robinson added.

“It’s about emptying the tank. Taking opportunities if you can get it (and) get into those positions but it’s not an automatic try if someone goes off.

“I think we missed our execution of moments at different time and that’s about as much as the tail of that game there.”

The Roosters coach also failed to blame veteran halfback Daly Cherry-Evans after he missed a field goal in the final few minutes, which would have taken the contest to extra time.

“We had other moments as well,” Robinson continued.

“Daly’s iced many. He’s iced them for us and he will ice them again in the next few weeks. I’ve got no problem with that.

“It’s not on a field goal. There were other opportunities there for us as well.”
