LIVE GAME Round 14 vs. Raiders

Live Game Discussion
Slowing down but keeping your line isn't in any
way an infringement. We see fullbacks doing it
all the time when the ball is about to roll dead.
Like Tucker mentioned, he seemed to have
been anticipating the ball hitting the pad...

be interesting to hear what Annesley has to say about this... Surely he can't ignore it and if he doesn't mention it I'd say sheens hasn't said anything to him

Giving Annesley too much credit Ink, he will
write him an I.O.U. note & save face haha
 
That’s one of our games this year, tigers have been poor all year with stats suggesting they should be winning
I put that more on the ability of the players to execute during the game. A coach can prepare, but the players are the ones who have to put it into practice. A coach can't run the lines, deliver a pass, make attacking decisions during a raid that's all on the back of the players to crack the opposition defence - and agree more than once this season teams have nullified our attack.

He definetly stopped and it could be argued he was trying to impede the chaser. It could also be argued he was steadying himself to react to the bounce off the post and collect the ball. He never changed his line.
I don’t know why he wasn’t screaming blue murder and demanding it be looked at. I have a feeling they’ll explain their way out if it.

It could definitely be argued that way, and I would totally get it. I would also trust your gut as to them explaining their way out of it, they have form.
 
I disagree with you on the push in the back from Brooks. Watching it live at the ground, I was screaming bloody murder. Having calmed down the next morning and watching the replay, I felt that Brooks was slowing down in an attempt to impede the chaser, so he was fair game.
You’re allowed to slow down, stop, dance if u will. As long as u don’t change direction to impede a runner, as long as brooks is running in the direction of the ball. It’s all legal, except the push in the back. You can’t do that fir any reason I believe.

Fair point. I wasn't 100% on the rule there anyway. That aside, I am firmly in the "Ice shouldn't have been penalised" camp.
 
Really? I don’t go with the flow in thinking the NRL is systematically cheating us most weeks.
You tin foil weirdos are the sheep, dancing to the narrative set by Sheens to mask the failings of this team who should be doing far better.
Who said that was the flow? Ink? Wouldn’t bother.

I am in the camp of, although I love his passion to stop the field goal. It wasn’t the smartest play, given that even if he kicked the goal it would of only drawn the game, not won it. It wasn’t worth the risk. Pressure the kicker just jump a metre in front of him. Dumb play remember the refs are always looking at any excuse to take the win off us!

And THIS. This right here’s a reasonable opinion

Proven by the large number of zero people following you around making themselves a pest and deconstructing your take.

Someone could really learn a thing or two!

Lol yep it’s reasonable if you have your tin foil hat on.
The refs are looking for reasons to take the win off us….🤣
It would have been far easier to just say WAAAGH!
 
Aw gummon, that’s not fair
The refs don’t give a shit whether we win or lose, why would they?
We’ve had some bum calls over the years…as has every side. It’s how you react to them that counts. We do not react well enough.

The fact that nobody else seems to be blowing up anymore has me believing I’m wrong so don’t worry.

I think most agree, as I do by the way, that some decisions were wrong last night.
Irrespective though, we still should have won that game. Brooks and Api both said as much in interviews afterwards. Tim is the one pushing the refs narrative and it’s a fairly translucent attempt to shift focus from the fact that this squad is too good to have lost 75% of their games this year.
