LIVE GAME Round 13 v Bulldogs

[Mighty_Tiger]

Is twal injured ?? Anyone have an update

MCL so 4-6 weeks is normally the case

Hope the NRL Judiciary see this ..

I have said it previously, there are different rules for current rep players. they get away with many calls. We don't have that benefit as we have no current rep players.

3 minutes into the second half, toupinua milked a set restart on the 5th tackle - it definitely wasnt a set restart.

5 tackles later, haywood dropped the ball and they claimed it was a bula rake - he never stripped the ball at all, it was his hand positioning from making the tackle.

The tigers defended 15 tackles on their try line before super star Galvin kicked the ball dead.

We lost the ball the next set, then the dogs finally scored when seyfarth was caught defending in the centres.

Tigers were 100% screwed in this passage of play. The sustained pressure led to a bulldogs try.

The bulldogs were given another set restart 3 tackles after the kick off.

A few minutes later Jack underhill strikes jarome in the face with his hand, whilst in possession of the ball - ive seen then given plenty of times, but nope, nothing.

Then Curran illegally hit the kicking leg of luai.

The tigers went on and scored, with no punishment to kiraz for the shoulder to turuvas head... accident or not, it was the 3rd or 4th attack on a wests tigers players head and not one was penalised.

Are we meant to believe the bulldogs are the most disciplined team in the nrl when it comes to set restarts? They played the perfect game?

On reflection, I think the tigers were screwed over more by the referees than the dogs. I wonder if anything goes to the MRC.. probably not..

I'm not as salty as some on the calls from the ref, however when the bunker is involved i expect them to get it right....am i missing some thing here, is this not galvin losing control of the ball into turuva? and before anyone argues about a strip its not as turuva just holding the ball not stripping and at no stage does galvin re grip the ball.

Any other team. Yes. The Wests Tigers its a stripping action.

Call me crazy but I, like Benji, have no problem with the officiating in that game. Sure we could’ve used a 6 again or two, but we won the penalty count comfortably which got us out of our own end a few times when we were struggling, as well as a gifted 2 points. The bunker rightly overturned 2 of their tries also, which rarely happens for us so I saw that as a bonus lol.

There were some dodgy calls both ways for sure, but hardly enough for either team to be whinging so loudly about, imo. It was a good contest and the better, more resilient team prevailed.

I think all anyone ever asks for from the referees is that they're consistent and I think they achieved that tonight. They were consistently bad...

Used to like critta as a player, has become a massive grub in that dogs system. The longer he has been there his game has gone backwards as well. Kennel are talking about a rift with the Galvin faction vs the critta faction....that kid is poison if true.

The Kennel hit the nail on the head with that one.
Luai and Crichton are best mates.
Galvin comes through the ranks at the Tigers, Luai brings him up to speed, gives him his spot, then Galvin craps all over him.
Galvin goes to the Dogs where Crichton has to watch his team mates move aside to accommodate him, and is told by Ciraldo to play second fiddle to Galvin.
That was never going to work with all the hatred bubbling under the surface.

Just finished a watch back after being at the game, the following stood out:
- no six agains for Tigers but should’ve had one the tackle before Curran charge down, where a fast play the ball saw markers standing next to each other (making them both offside) Api attacks one of the markers Underhill, he plays, no six again. Next tackle the charge down happens.
- Seyfarth falls/tackles into Twal, causing Twals injury. Twal was visibly filthy and had words with Seyfarth on his way off.
- Tupouniau clearly strikes both Laui and Turuva after he knocks on in 78th min
- big momentum swing was Madden kicking too deep and leading to a 20 restart with about 15 or so to go. He seem to kick poor after he kicked the ground in the second half with one of his kicks.

You should definitely email this to ciraldo and ask him to include it in his email to the refs 🤣

Her's been a grub since the panthers. He is a koala ( protected species).

 

[crazycat]

Benji doesn't seem to be a fan either.

Remember when he put the hit on Strange and got knocked out?

There's a player in there.
Just isn't perfect.

Re Skelton.

Look he has his faults. If he did not play today, I don't think we would have won.

He crossed the line twice. We had tries scored against us, but we wern't run over.
Bigger problems to fix.

Apart from Galvins try not making the line, touching turf and he lost control of the ball

You think its a ridiculous rule when in the past weve seen some shocking injuries from this action which is why it was brought in
Thankfully Luai wasnt hurt tonite...it doesnt always end in an injury.....
The only thing predictable is your hypocrisy in targetting people discussing refereeing and you calling people sooks when you did the same thing the other night...and then pathetically tried to absolve yourself

Youre a joke...

Insults people instead of debating the merits , thinks an opinion is a fact and is incapable of nuance or reasoning,,, but the WESTS TIGERS WON tonight so I’ll go to bed happy and imagining that Tuck is dutifully emailing Cameron Ciraldo to let him know that the Referees have no influence on the result and never make incorrect decisions ( and only losers and weak people blame them), unless it’s an Origin game that negatively affects qld or is a rule that he doesn’t like ! 🥳😂😜💯

Bravo,

Missed the game. Glad to see we are competitive again. Seems like a lot of guys played well.
