Barring that woeful PTB, I thought Lawrence was quite good today.

Heavy track always brings the field back to him…

It was a very poor refereeing decision not to overturn Robbies dropped ball. We scored another 12 points from that point that I don't think we would have got without that decision. Having said that there is no way Parra would have won had they made a correct decision. parra had nothing in the second half and against a top side would have lost by 50.

If they were going to overturn that decision then it should've been a penalty for offside/marker not square. Simona got penalised for not being square in the first half and he was much more square than Watmough was.

Although I am bias, I thought that Simona was very hard done by in that call in the first half.

It seemed that both coaches had a plan to play the game as tight as possible and then wait for the other team to crack. This went on until the final 15 minutes when Wests Tigers let loose and showed their class. A good patient win which will give the team plenty of confidence.

Anyone got any ideas on the tactics around saving Ava til the 60th minute? He's a strong runner, but doesn't have the game-breaking impact of a Taupau or Gavet.

Pretty good defensive effort, only one lapse in the first half. We frustrated the bejebus out of the eels arrack.

Lets see what comes of it but the video ref could have quite easily made the decision based on Watmough not being square at marker and leaving early.

No one ever get those calls when you reach out from marker and play the dummy half.

Agree. If you allow that much freedom from the marker then spoiling tactics would make scoring near impossible inside the 10\. Would be nothing but arms reaching around knocking the ball down.

Then it should have been a penalty - the fact they didn't give a penalty means they thought Watmough was onside and in line.

Our kicking game is very NFL like in my opinion

We are looking for long kicks with lots of hang time

Anyone else noticed this ??

Watmough was two metres offside. We were robbed a penalty on that play.

Marker moved off mark putting Simona offsde….one of my pet hates

Shouldn't players be signing fan merchandise or taking photos with fans after the game? They walked towards us for 1 min as a group and walked back off, didn't even come close.
