What about the penalty count???
Re: What about the penalty count???
Isn't that the ruling now? Catch pass on outside shoulder and dummy runners run to inside shoulder?happy tiger wrote: ↑Tue 20 Mar, 2018 11:18 am
Actually they were looking at an obstruction where Lawrence contacts Slater and where the ball player was in relation to that
Rowdy should have known better , he should of avoided contact with Slater and continued his run , he was lucky he contacted the inside shoulder of Slater and the ball had just barely passed by
It was a very close thing , luckily for us the ref had called try ......
In terms of 2018 interpretation and application of obstruction, I thought Rowdy did just fine, ran a good line.

100%, he needs to be called out and shamed for that pathetic dive that looked like a slide into 3rd base.

Typical cheating tactics from him playing outside the spirit of the game.
He needs to be shamed and highlited on google ala Ben Creaghs tutu
Surely someone on here is able to do it?
I should be able to knock one up.
Recording the game now, so once that's done I'll pop one up if no one else has by then

We’ve got to learn to make it less obvious though.
To be fair , I only saw it from the start of the second half , but most of the penalties against us were deserved.
All teams deliberately give away penalties near their tryline.
I don’t care if the refs keep up penalising for that, it’s a pain in the butt.

There was time when Woods was standin captain talking to the ref about being hammered for the penalty count.
The ref said it’s even after the dogs gave a couple away to allow the roosters further up field.
And woods replied it’s not they’ve given away 3 on their line that doesn’t count.
Teams, especially Melbourne and roosters will make an effort to ‘test’ the referee close to the line. The same way we managed to get 3 penalty goals to put us up a whole 6 points.
It’s deliberate and the thinking is that continually slowing the attack from the ruck frustrates the attack and ensures a greater likelihood of the attacking team getting an error.

It was the pocket Ref that kept saying "I have a try".happy tiger wrote: ↑Tue 20 Mar, 2018 11:18 amActually they were looking at an obstruction where Lawrence contacts Slater and where the ball player was in relation to thatCultured Bogan wrote: ↑Mon 19 Mar, 2018 8:58 amThey had about six thousand views of him taking the pass. They must have been thinking (or hoping) he lost it into the defender.
They were looking at every reason not to give that. I nearly fell off my chair when they said Lawrence was OK for running at Slater.

Thanks, just as I expected, a dive confirmed. His dejected expressions at the end of the match were enough for me to not worry too much about this incident, plus it may have inspired Mats to his match winning charge and offload.BonusTank wrote: ↑Wed 21 Mar, 2018 7:15 amFade To Black wrote: ↑Wed 21 Mar, 2018 1:13 am100%, he needs to be called out and shamed for that pathetic dive that looked like a slide into 3rd base.

Cammy you shifty grub at the ground we thought it was for repeated infringement and Mats was just the unlucky one..
Now it appears he was unlucky to be on the end of a Cammy Academy Award...

I dunno. I dislike Cameron Smith but to me it just looks he tried to change direction and fell over. Beyond that he might have over egged it.

Nah, he plants his left and then lifts his right leg and foot so that it can slide, which is the opposite of the actions if he was wanting to go the other direction. He dropped like a spud and he had to as he was approaching running ten metres.

Clearly shows Smith up for the slimy, deceitful vermin the bloke is, on the field and off. Shame some people are too blind to see it, NRL HQ being the main culprits.
