If we had that backline last night,the outcome may have been in our favour,however I can say it THE REF WAS SHIT...
I also think Hunt needs more time in the game..
Just my opinion ...the team did well against a very good side yesterday...

The bunker was far worse than the referee,Klein is a complete disgrace and should NOT be in a position to decide games

I dont understand why former players are not in the bunker. People that have played the game. They understand the nuances. Well. I will have a crack at my own question without going into too much detail. Money? And - Optometry. Like - being able to rule on forward passes. We are all in the bunker afterall if we be watching on the box and not at the game. We see what they see. Which leads me to my last question. Why do they see a different result than us? It's too late the next morning or the rest of the week being replayed all over again for being a forward pass. It seems to be more than football. It sounds more like Las Vegas. A few run the casinos the rest donate their money to them.

I’m not sure you’re replying to the correct comment, I’m talking about challenging the non obstruction in the Willason try. Didn’t realise you can’t but I believe it should be a captains challenge option for a bunker review not the bunker reviewing every try with a fine tooth comb.

Bula shunning his QLD origin eligibility was a misstep in his career. Even if he had the chance to be no. 20-21 in an origin squad, it would have been a great opportunity to learn from the best fullback ever (Billy Slater). Now he's severed those potential ties.

Not sure if Queensland hold grudges but I remember Luke Keary saying the same thing about playing for NSW!

Agree or for Annesley to come out on Monday and explain the errors made.

Thats an error right there. Who gets away with all these errors every week? Would you employ someone that consistently makes errors every single week. But this is the world we find ourselves in. Every man for himself. Starts top down. Thats why they stopped accountability on Mondays from Graham. We give you hot dogs and beers. What else you want. Pay up.

Pass was made about 2 metres short of the 20m line and he caught it on or beyond. Clear forward pass. Really don't know how the ref missed it.

He was in the middle of the field when Hunt received the ball 20m in from the touch line for the 40/20.
A fullback should always been in line with the kicker and if that was the case he probably would have got the the kick on the full.
I don’t mind how Bula is playing so far this season, but we need a few match winning games for us real soon, preferably next weekend against the Knights.

It's as simple as mirroring where the ball is left to right.

Ar the moment he is reacting late and relying on natural talent/speed to make it up.

Can get there if the coaches including Hodgo guide him and ask more of him

Are you sure? ball shifted to blind on tackle 3 to the 5/8 inside of the 40.
my question was did Bula react once the kick was made or did he come across with the ball when it went out to hunt.
If he was following the play he would of got there that’s the point I’m making and it’s more a general question, do fullbacks move across with the direction of the ball or generally stay middle of the field until plays 4 or 5?

You're pretty much always moving laterally following the ball, far back enough you can run onto it for the kick return; It's in this space where the Reynolds' chip took its angled bounce that unfortunately came off perfectly for him.

Usually on the 4th tackle your wingers will come back from the d line a bit (but still have to prioritise covering their man), then on 5th you have all three fully back to cover which is why few 40/20s will come on last tackles.
 
Only way Bunker could rule on forward passes is they would need to change the float forward rule.

Bunker then could use line based technology and rule on forward passes easily.
