Bulldogs Obstruction

[tig_prmz]

the points jason taylor raised last year.. same thing is happening this year.

the thing is storm did the same play, they got penalised.. we did the same play with fulton and galloway, we got penalised.

im really lost as to what is going on tbh… esp with the bulldogs. i always let bias get in way when there is anything to do with bulldogs, so what are you guys' opinions?

obstruction or not obstruction?

that is the article btw.. there is no point copying and pasting text coz there are a lot of photos on it as well.

That obstruction call on Cronk tonight was awful. Try every day of the week.

Yeah that was such a stupid call. I was at a pub so didn't hear why they called it back so I'm guessing it was because of the contact infield which had no play on the try?

 

[tig_prmz]

im just so bloody confused with obstruction.. to me it looks like every play the bulldogs do, there is always someone running around their own player with the ball

Yep. The ball had already been moved wide and the player had absolutely no chance of laying a finger on Cronk.

As Stryker said, it was a try every day of the week.

It was a try everyday of the week oh well at least dogs lost haha.

TRY….. The sauce/Fulton one was a blatant old school shepherd. Smith at no stage ran around the decoy runner, contact was only made because that decoy continued his line, besides the fact the defender was a meter behind the defensive line anyway, The ball and the play was traveling away from the decoy and defender the whole time. JOKE of a call and they need to review that interpretation.

Next they will penalise players for obstruction as they run down the Tunnel :brick:

 

[Centaur]

Woeful decision wasn't it.

 

[quintus]

A legitimate try….Disgusting decision. :bash

 

[barra]

Try!
Where is the commonsense?? Just when the refs seeemed to be going so much better…

 

[stryker]

Think the same Barra. The refs have been pretty good so far but last night they near robbed the storm. Good win under the circumstances.

 

[everett]

Dumb decision. A try for all money.

Junior ref had a shocker last night

He made some ridicilous calls last night

No way that it was 80% senior ref 20% junior ref as the new rules are now

Couldn't agree more.

a lot of people have misunderstood me here… that storm "no try" was a try for sure, no doubt about that

my point was regarding the jason taylor article and the bulldogs' style of play.. any opinions, guys?
