Bellamy must be wondering how he can hang onto Momo next year!


Where are all the Momo knockers now, especially the one that basically called me a drunk and scarecrow lover, for wanting Momo back here.

I’m here. He did nothing all game and then scored a try at the end that Elton John could have scored. BJ and Mbye are far better centres.

Agree
Momo was average all game with poor defensive reads ..Jennings would’ve scored that try .

He did well to score but besides that he was invisible

If Mbye had have played Momos exact game tonight half the forum would call for him to be dropped for not being involved enough.
 
The PTB's all night were a bloody dogs brekkie. Finucane puts the ball on the ground while he is still kneeling, gets penalty to win the game. So you don't have to get to your feet before you place the ball down? That's supposedly the rule. Wishy-washy rules decided upon as you go. Deadset lottery.

Hasn’t that been a 6 again all year? Why is it a penalty in that situation? I’m confused 😂 fantastic game

No... It hasn't...

Either way he was still pushed after the tackle was complete. Clear foul

It’s a professional foul though?

Would have to watch replay again but Finucane puts the ball on the ground-whilst kneeling, and then gets "pushed". To me the 1st foul committed is not rising to your feet before playing it. Lottery.

Not a try-scoring situation.

Momo was average all game with poor defensive reads ..Jennings would’ve scored that try .

He was quite in first half but hung in there and scored that cracker.
 
Great game

Momorovski proved a clutch player

Cam smith is not a no 7

Papz was average but clutched it too

The other smith not really a 9 either

Given some Space he’s great at finding the tryline

That sums up Melbourne. They hang in there. Every year it seems like they are going to slide, but they keep on keeping on.

Roosters played poor for ages and still almost won. Two tremendous teams, obviously we gotta hate them but deep down we are lucky to see that kind of quality from them every week
 
Storm looked more threatening in the 2nd 40 when Cammy's flat/forward passes from DH took effect. Massive advantage being able to get away with them against a tiring defensive line.

i agree i dont understand why that is not 6 again

Ref has the choice to call either .....obviously biggest advantage was penalty at that moment

Decided the whole game over that. Ref shouldn’t have the power to decide it like that.

Yeah it’s a crap way to end a great game, but it’s not the first time it’s happened.

Yeah it should be Golden Try. Field goals and penalty goals should just carry the game on.
