Broncos No Try

Has to be the worst video ref call ever! Are these blokes blind or just pissed?

Did you miss the Burgess TRY oops I mean No TRY last week…
 
Amazing decision … Thank goodness didn't have a bearing on the result.

The Joe Burgess call not good either.

No matter what they try and what innovations they make, it never seems to work consistently well.

They're both mate !
If that was us playing I'd have to call Foxtel for a new remote !

I have to do a James Graham these days and watch our games with my hands behind my back, no mobile or remote control anywhere withing reach

Momentum all the way…the game isnt played in slo-mo...dont adjudicate in slo-mo

Slo-mo is useful for some decisions but not for something like that. If they're going to review something like that in slo-mo they should finish by watching at full speed as a common sense check on themselves. Maybe they should also have a bloke in the corner having a few beers who can help them pass the pub test on their decisions.

I've noticed the bunker starting to replay the decisions at normal speed , and they still get it wrong :crazy
At least their consistent !

Even in slo-mo it wasn't a double movement! Good God, I still can't believe it!

Yep I agree with you both, it's not good to have anything in our hands with these idiots controlling the game :crazy

I have a beer in both hands :laughing:
… You don't throw beers away , unless its XXXX and you're a Cane Toad :laughing:
 
Couldn't have happened to a better team though! Unca Wayne would be happy to dismiss it as "just part of the game" like he did with the Justin Hodges spear tackle that he got away with to play in last years GF.
Would love to see Brisbane not win another game this year and miss the semi's. Maybe then Channel 9 might have to review their policy of televising every single Broncos game on a Friday night.
The bunker is a multimillion dollar joke, has been from day dot. The NRL would be better advised having a roulette wheel to adjudicate on these decisions….it would have a more accurate success rate.

Haha Hobbo! You're right, those Qlders were looking for an excuse to throw those full cans of XXXX onto the field in that Origin game in the 80's because they couldn't bear to drink the rancid stuff!
 
With all the video ref decisions that are simply bad calls, what is the difference between them and on field bad calls? Answer; no difference they just slow the game down.
If the purpose of the video ref is to give the players a breather, then fine, persist with them. Otherwise remove the multiple angle cameras on the goal line, put one camera behind each goal, get rid of the video ref system and let the on field ref do their job.
 
Broncos are gone!!!
I saw last night why Roberts doesn't get a blues jersey, he's awful.
NRL coaches
Kick to Oates, he's busted and down on confidence and has mistakes in him now.
Focus your attack at Roberts and you'll score, he's got no idea in defence.

Boyd only plays good when the team is playing good
Hunt has gone from one of the best no7's to nearly the worst, he's going dreadful.
Milford not far behind.
Their defence also.
Parker and Thaiday are ready for pasture.
The centre who replaced Reed is pretty ordinary and slow, seems a replica of reed but not as tall.
The young forwards seem to go OK but struggle without all the oldies on the park as you'd expect.

I think the Broncos are in big trouble and I usually wouldn't write them off because they have a habit of proving everyone wrong but I think they're finished as a contender.
I can't believe they started that game as favorite's last night.
 
I have to agree with the majority that was a certain try.When you slow the replay down to frame by frame you take momentum out of the decision which is what a double movement is all about.That was momentum which got him over the line and a terrible decision.The ref got it right and should not have sent it up for review.
 
Simple solution is that double movements are looked at normal speed

And people accuse me of wearing a tin foil hat when I say that any football game result can be manipulated by referees or video refs
