Round 11 SPOILERS

Apparently storm officials were on the phone to Todd Greenberg mid match complaining

:roll

I expect Bellamy to jump ship when Smith retires because they are horrible without him.
 
We lost against a 14 man Broncos team in 2003 or 2004- official complaint but a "thanks but sorry youve lucked out" response from NRL.
Can team officials like that Ponissi flog approach officials during a game?
When the Storm are going good the game is going good. Thanks Todd.
Was a flogging, suck it up maybe watch the 2008GF replay to cheer the Storm boys up…..........
 
Watching the Super League Magic weekend live at the moment and touchies just put their flag up for a conversion that was clearly missed…
 
I apologise to the NRL. Just saw 2 touchies award a missed goal in the super league. We should get them out here
 
Just watching Super League - one ref and no video ref this round - Toronto awarded a try after the winger dropped the ball about 2 feet out from the line - he also dropped in to touch. Ref checked with linesman and awards a try. The perfect case for having a video ref.

Apparently because this game is a Championship game not Super League, they will be used for the later games…
 
What do you guys reckon about the Napa hit?

I reckon he did lead with the head and it was reckless. He leans and rises far too high, only ever made contact with the opponent's head; if it was his arm, he'd have been in trouble too. That whole set was full of Roosters guys trying to launch themselves in the tackle.

Considering a guy can be binned now for backing through the ruck or being offside a 3rd time, I can't see how so many people are complaining that Napa got binned for a dangerous action.

I'm sure he didn't intend it, but that's not the point, and how were the Broncos having to field one less bloke because Napa's head is like a scud missile?

They've shown no balls in then not suspending him afterwards, takes away all the credit of the referees trying to penalise safer play.

100% intentional and deserves 4-6 weeks for the first offense.

I thought intentional but its hard to prove, his arms looked to be trailing a fair way behind with fists clenched..
