Live Game Thread *Spoilers*

If we play like that every week, we're in the finals. Don't feel as deflated as last week, all I ever want to see is effort.

I just hope it doesn't impact them for next week.

Mitchell one of the biggest grubs in the game and gets away with it

Quick question, why did the ref check Burgess point-down if he had already called Brooks’ try? Souths has no challenges left?

Well done Tigers!
Mixed it with the big boys.

Adam Reynolds the difference!!

I only have one question in the end with the grounding ..why did they stop looking at the second angle

That angle they decided on ...there was no way you can see if the ball is coming loose

His pinky was definitely off the ball ..you can't see if their is a shadow between ball and hand from that angle

The only fair angle was the 2nd angle and the ball is sliding out of his hand from that angle

Reminds me of the donkeys effort ,need to win next week or bust

it was the same play so he can check it. brooks gets tackled, and we score, he cant review

Because it was all in the same play

So when JTJ is tackled Souths have enough time time to cook dinner before held is called and he's dragged over the touchline. Yet held is called in a millisecond when Garner's about to strip Latrell.

Wests didn't get a 50/50 call all night.

If that was the Tigers would that try have been awarded?

No try every day every week every year

 

[JRDee]

We should have challenged the Garner strip.

The ref clearly calls held before he strips it

They would have looked at it anyway ...they used the wrong angle

He let the play run and called it back to see if Burgess grounded it. To be honest I am OK that he called it that way because it would have allowed us to win it if Burgess knocked it on rather than calling play back.

 

[cktiger]

Was that not a clean strip from Garner???


100% legit

Ref called held as he grabbed it.

Which usually goes back to playing the ball.... I thought? If its simultaneous.

I agree ... shouldn’t have been a penalty.

So many mixed emotions with this game tonight, definitely proud of the effort that was put in by the team although it makes me wonder why we can’t produce that every week.

And It would be nice if we could win these really close games just once damn it.

Brooks should of sat down five mins before the line. Would of been play on.

Simpkin was impressive in his debut. He can only get better. I am hopeful of his career
.

 

[boonboon]

I am soooo over this sport. Whats the point and im over a team that plays up or down to the team they are playing. Who cares if we got close we will be 2nd last tommorrow or equal last and whats the point

 

[AdelaideTiger]

That's a 80 min performance. They can hold their heads high tonight
