I think they are both on about $400k a year …
Sure maybe there was
But that's guess work
I'm going off what I saw vs what I usually see in other games
when have you EVER seen a sin bin in the opening 10 mins of a game for back to back penalties, when you haven't seen the ref give the captain a warning?
It’s hard to get your head around , and not say “that’s a rip off” but that’s just above league average as the salary cap starts to push 12 mil . I think that’s about right . If you’ve got 8-10 guys on 400k that’s 1/3 of your roster taking up 1/3 of your cap .
It’s just man it wasn’t that long ago the cap was 8-9mil. So it feels like a lot when it’s probably not.

No, but what does the ref do for repeated infringements, warning, penalty, maybe. I see your point but it was still dumb play, especially from a guy who should know better.
They tested the ref and he slapped our face.
And we lost !
Well the way I've seen teams do it in recent times is to give away the penalties and cop the 2 points...
Which is why I'm asking ppl when was this 3 back to back mandatory sin bin rule introduced?
And why wasn't Luai given a warning?
And has there ever been a sin bin for back to back penalties without warning in the first 10 minutes, ever? The number would be incredibly low

I haven't read the whole thread and watch on silent. Did we kick for touch for a penalty in front when we had one in the bin?
I would have started with a first grade coach to start with after 3 spoons.
More wins than last year and we still have half the number of games to go..

I can live with the amount…and their place in the squad ….like I said though,,,I would like to see them as depth guys and not picked every week,,,would mean the squad is better

is it a requirement that a warning needs to be given before a player is sinbinned for repeated infringements?
I am unaware of the history of the “mandatory “ sinbinning as articulated by the referee tonight …I did here another referee refer to it earlier this year
This puts it into context
But it won't suit some of the doomsday narrators on here.

And over ruled the on field decision for the Nanai try?
Not sure, is it?
Ive never seen anyone sent to the bin for back to back penalties in the first ten mins of a game...
And usually the ref gives warnings.
That's what I'm basing this on
Why are the tigers always the anomaly?
Nope tapped and ran.
Cool
Richo a experience operater decided he was going to give Benji a chance and so far it's been a success compare to years gone by
Look how the experienced NRL coaches are going at the broncos and knights.
Again the culture of this club is always to settle for mediocre improvement after 3 spoons.
Look at the Dogs, spoon in 2021 then top 8 in 24 and lead comp in 25. Agressive recruitment starting at the top-Gould ,Ciraldo. What do we do, apprentice coach Marshall.

Are they? Do you watch other teams as closely as you watch ours?

We need to know what the rule is …seems we both aren’t sure… I would suspect it’s within the referees authority to act in this manner without necessarily providing a warning …although I see your point that some will consider it to be harsh

No, and we usually get the rough end of the pineapple, but we should be organised and not continually offend. Most teams cope with the 6 again call by either repelling the opposition or conceding a try. We just kept doing it over and over.
And we lost, but good teams usually find a way to win. We played some good touch footy when the shackles were off.
Much better, so do we start that way next week, running the ball from the kick off, or do we go back to structured footy, which were pretty rubbish at.
