BUNKER WRONG!!!!!

Whatever the score (it's 20 mins to go) I really believe the Bunker got it wrong with Parra's first try. I never complain about refs but this frame by frame review decision is absolute rubbish.

I have been saying for years that any video decision should only be allowed to be viewed in real time. There is no way that player had control of that ball, even when you watch it slowed down.
 
Im okay with the decision. You could argue he lost control but there was never any separation at any point in time so I can live it.

And that's why you shouldn't complain about refs. It was a try…..
 
You're all on drugs. Watch it again at normal speed. There was no control and the ball was practically horizontal to his fingers when grounded. Delusional is one thing I'm not.
 
They changed the rule people. Its not about having a finger on the ball in the freeze frame, its about control. If you think he kept control of that then you have NO IDEA. He lost control, so it doesnt mattter if he had a finger tip on it, the ball was lost. Disgraceful decision.

Was a try… however dont agree with how 2 fingers ln the ball is having control and downward pressure. Too me thats not right

U say its a try then explain exactly why it isnt a try. Control was lost, thats the rule. Bunker has had a terrible weekend.
 
Don't try and fob this off onto the officials, we didn't deserve to win, plain and simple. That's the worst game I've seen since the Cowboy game last yr.

I'm glad someone is with me. I was getting worried for a second. :slight_smile:
 
I was sitting right there behind the tryline and live everyone around me said no-try , including the Parra fans and the ref. Yet he sent it up to the Bunker. Live from 30 metres away , looked like he dropped the ball cold.
Final score should have benn 2-0 to Parra
 
Not sure what the definition is this year, but last year that would have been a try. We wouldn't have scored in a brothel today (ironic given we had three hookers,) if they didn't score the scoreline would have been 2-0.
 
Im not going to make excuses because this decision did not cost us the game. We were still in it well after this happened.

That said, with the new interpretations, that is 100% not a try. Dropped ball.
