[Paul Carter]

I just thought I would let you know. In the game between Newtown and Canterbury at Henson Park on April 25, 1963.
-That the Penalties were 21-19 Newtown's way.

21-19? Geez, was there outraged that the referee "ruined" the game?

This is not unusual for a game at this time 20 to 40 penalties and 20 to 40 scrums you'll find most of the penalties would be for scrum infringements. Typically you would have around 20 penalties and around 30 scrums per game.
