‘The weekend was a disgrace’: Legend’s revolutionary plan for Bunker overhaul

Over the weekend, the NRL Bunker came under fire once again after a series of questionable calls in Round 9 had fans and players up in arms.

Rugby League icon James Graham has stepped up with a game-changing plan to reform the video referee system, following what he called a "disgraceful" weekend of officiating.

The Warriors were left fuming after being denied what seemed like a clear penalty try against the Knights, when Dallin Wateneze-Zelezniak was taken out in mid-air by Greg Marzhew.

Meanwhile, the Titans' Phil Sami was left stunned when he was awarded a try despite the ball appearing to bobble during his touchdown against the Storm.

Graham, known for his tough and no-nonsense approach on the field, has raised concerns about the impact of the Bunker's blunders on all those involved in the game.

"We understand that tough calls need to be made, but some of the decisions made by the Bunker are simply not up to scratch for the players who give their all out on the field," he stated during NRL360.

With the dust settling on a weekend of controversy, Graham's plan for a Bunker overhaul could be just what Rugby League needs to take control of its refereeing issues.

Stay tuned as this legend's bold move could change the game as we know it.

Time will tell if his ideas will score a try with fans and players alike.
