I can only speak for myself, but I would still no think it was no try if it was us.

Finger makes contact with ball which is on the ground. How is that not a try? Lol

No downward pressure.

Mate that is a try every week.

How can you even prove "downward pressure". It's a bs rule… all you need to see is contact with the ball.

He grazed the side of the ball with his finger, he didn't change it's momentum even a fraction of a percent in a downwards direction, he propelled it forward or did nothing to it at all.

We have the worst record in GP of any team, have not won in GP since 2012, we have had some shocker calls against us in GP

 

[FreddyK]

We scored a try.. they didnt.
Simple

Haha… Another ignoramus

??? Ignoramus?

The Broncos attack was worse than ours… If not for the goal posts and poor reffing we would be in front comfortably.
We were robbed. Stop trying to give it to our team after an effort like that. You know we should be 3-0 atm.

Do you give no pardon considering we were without Reynolds, Liddle, Tui, ET all whilst Benji was on one leg.

I'm very proud of the character guts and toughness we are playing with…. But it is OUR attack we're talking about... If you've been watching closely you'd see we rarely threaten opposition try lines... It's a massive problem.

I don't give a stuff about the Broncos attack

X2

Watched the game with a dogs fan. No try to a neutral, even though I was worried we'd be duded.

Watched the game with 3 neutrals
Panthers /souths & Dragons …all agreed on a Try ..
All agreed we were robbed at the death .

our non existent attack is a massive problem… To suggest it's not is ignorant

only saw one try in the game…. not sure which game you were watching.

You don't win many games scoring one try… But hey we scored more than them so everything must be ok huh?
Pull you head out

Most of us are confused why you dont.

Lol love that comment.

Sounds like some people are upset our defence has gone to a level that Melbourne would be proud off. I’m sure Cleary would have spent the off season focusing on defence. Or would you prefer to be losing games 36-24 like the old tigers would.

I'm not gonna act like a Storm supporter and cry about every decision that goes against us.

Watched it again. There is a frame showing his fingers touching the top of the ball when it was on the ground.

Like Gus said "what is downward pressure"… it's something which shouldn't even be in the rulebook. Either there is contact with the ball in a downward motion or it's an obvious knock on.

Fair enough but right call imo and I don't think I'm biased except for the tiger coloured glasses

All good …
But we know for a fact we'd all be smashing our TV's if that was ruled a no Try against us !

Yeah, forward movement. I wouldn't even award that to my son if it was his first try.

Not me, no try everyday, us or against us, his fingers hit the side not top of ball

Don't know how anyone could think that was a try! It was a bloody knock on if anything. Never had control of the ball at any stage, downward motion my arse!

Generally after a loss from a bad call I get to the point where the frustration dies down after reading everyone else's rant on here, but I am still as angry as the first post I read after that disgusting decision… I think I had better go to bed to calm down...

Watch the replay and freeze it frame by frame. If you're seriously telling me you can't see fingers touching the top of the ball then you need to be eating more carrots.

Hasn't it ever ….
Normal speed / no replay = no try

What do you guys think about this

If a game goes to extra time
A committee yet to be formed can overturn a decision they Deem to be wrong or unfair and award the two points on offer be split amongst both teams
Therefore giving one point to each team
This allows for a fair decision
Lets not forget that the refs are under extreme pressure to make a decision on the spot and this is not always the right decision
But the new committee can overturn the decision if they review the origianal decision and deem it to be wrong
I don't think any rugby league fan would disagree to this If they are being honest
The committee would have the advantage of reviewing the footage over and over
Golden point needs to be scrutinised
I believe this would be a fair way and the only way to make the correct decision
What do you think

Pull you head out

That is generally how you win games

Yeah, like tonight….oh wait.

We beat the 2 premiership favourites. Should have beaten another top team. Shown defence and resilience that hasn’t been seen in this team for years and it seems some people on here are upset about it.
