Canberra Raiders chief executive Don Furner says it's happened to them before and it feels like it happens to them more than anyone else - the Raiders being robbed and then the NRL apologising afterwards.
It went exactly to the script predicted by Canberra coach Ricky Stuart after their 12-10 loss to St George Illawarra in terrible conditions in Wollongong on Sunday.
The NRL referees department apologised to Stuart on Monday.
