LIVE GAME Round 2 General Discussion *SPOILERS*

[stryker 69]

It’s funny how disappointed the channel nine morons were when Paps nailed that kick. They were all ready to jump on the Latrell mouldy missile.

What a strange game. Souffs were woeful for 60 minutes. Should have been down by 30 at half time. Melbourne were terrible in the 2nd half and Souffs weren't any better until the last 20. Penriff would have been killing themselves laughing at that rubbish.

 

[Moh]

Man, how good is Harry Grant.

Think Newcastle might have been without Ponga for a decent period, might have included that game too. Early days but they also look a better side than last year too. You’re right though, Tigers can surprise when they’re not expected to do well.. Never know

Watson from memory Played great last year got them back in the match

 

[cktiger]

Ref did everything possible to get get the Scum home and failed.
Laughed myself silly when Paps kicked the winner. 🤣

 

[jadtiger]

Still believe the only way a game should end in golden point is a try being scored. Should be play on if someone kicks a field goal or penalty goal.

Golden point should not exist,it is all seppo bullshit designed for tv

This competition looks tighter this year, not that much between the sides which is good.

So goalkicking could be the difference as we saw tonight. And it's a problem for us.

Another ref decided outcome imo.
Storm clearly offside all night but the ref only starts to ping them late in the game for it.... The momentum this creates for teams is near impossible to hold out.
For a (C) to ask the ref why his team was penalised and the ref can only reply 'I don't know, I did t call it' is just wrong too.
It's refereed.to.look good on tv....

I didn’t watch all the game but that’s disgraceful. The ref with the whistle has to call what’s a penalty and should only get advice from others e.g “number 6 hands all over the ball” the ref than decides if it’s a penalty or not based on how it affects the play.

Love to know the stats of successful ref challenges per each ref. Our no1 ref, Sutton sure comes second a lot of times when his calls are challenge.

It would also appear, the refs are under orders to cut back on the six again calls. I guess the NRL did not want to lose face and scrap the rule, so they have had a chat to the refs to use it only when the Tigers are running around

6 agains have gone back to being penalties in your own 40

The captain asked why the six again noise sounded at the time. It was not the question of the penalty and the ref said he did not know as he did signal the six again.

This pip squeak ref like last night allowing Penrith to lay all over saints players, hang onto legs despite him calling held
Dickhead blows his whistle like a 5yo
