Round 7 spoilers

[tsjonathan]

SJ is out tonight which will be a big hit but last time that Lino got a chance earlier in the season he killed it. Should be interesting.

What! He's my captain in SC.

Lino /Blake Green >> SJ

Great stuff from the Warriors to bounce back after last week. I thought they might drop off and fall back to the pack but it doesn't appear so just yet.

 

[innsaneink]

Chance for us to share top spot now

 

[innsaneink]

Haha howler… Of course it's slater

 

[shifty]

That was a rubbish try for Slater…

 

[innsaneink]

Unbelievable from the bunker…. Knock ons are ok if your attempting a kick

 

[Nelson]

Brilliant try from Melbourne - awesome kick Addo-Carr.

Didn’t Benji do one of those kicks/dropped balls that led to a try in round 1 2006 v the dragons?

 

[Nelson]

He was clearly intending to kick so if you're allowed to drop kick in general play (and not only when attempting a field goal) then I don't see the problem with it. I don't know what the rule is about drop kicks in general play though.

That was a knock on, he attempted the left foot kick, botched it, had a stab with the right. Even after he touches it down in goal, he knew it wasn’t a try.

Isaako is as slow as a wet week. Lost ground on the Storm left hand side during the try.

 

[Nelson]

Melbourne have got their wingers back into the game and are looking good tonight.

 

[happy_tiger]

Is it coincidence , but when I see the Broncos players getting tackled with the 3rd man in low , they cross their legs ??

You're comparing him to Addo-Carr who is probably the fastest player in the game…

Glad we don’t have to play them till the semis - if they make it that is :wink:

Please.
A. Kick is when the ball leaves the hands and contacts the foot.
A drop kick is kicked simultaneously as the ball touches the turf and contacts the boot.
That was a howler and Slater knew it

No he is slow, a bit like that Bulldogs winger who kicks goals.

Not really "simultaneously". The ball bounces.

But most people agree ita not a try. Tedesco did it laat year vs titans.

If the nrl allows that as a try then technically isnt anyone who drops the ball (knock on) permitted to quickly kick it?

Watch that at full speed and not in slow motion and it'll look like a drop kick. It doesn't have to be simultaneous - if you're trying to get elevation like they do in union you kick it slightly later than you do when going for distance.
