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.

Only if the sin bin is applied, else it would be a free for all.

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 .

Cough cough
Wrong side of the field for Jennings

10 meters out
Defenders flying across
Step inside step inside and score while being tackled all with the clock ticking down and against one of the best defensive teams in the last 10 years
Does that really sound like a try Jennings could score
Wake up son and eat you Coco Pops because your dreaming

I do think BJ and Mbye are better centres , however I thought Momo had a solid game, and that try his scored was really well done, he had to beat a few and made Morris look ordinary in defence.

More tackles than all the other backs other than Smith who you would expect to tackle
More meters than 3 of the starting forwards and only 12 meters behind Jessie Bromwich
Give him some credit
It was a tough game tonight
And he did his job

Rugba Leeg is a beautiful game to watch when played like that.

It's bloody awesome isn't it!! How good was 2010/2011 when we were a part of it. I love watching the chooks play.

I don't mind having a bloke who adds close to nothing, when that "close to nothing" is 13 tries in 15 matches. That was a clutch play from Mommers tonight; there was every reason to think he'd get tackled by the ample cover.

Couldn't help but think of the 2010 games against the Dragons and Roosters. Though I've never rewatched the latter, I've always felt proud of (IMO) the performance we put up against the Dragons.
The intensity of tonight's game was high and watching those powerhouse forwards elevate their teams only made me wish that we can gain the players to create such a brutal pack(as either team). The dying minutes of that game was a real arm wrestle.

Well done to Momirovski and Paps for their input in the result.
 
No doubt Momo can find the tryline better than Mybe...but his positioning in defence may not be quite a s good.Can be fixed ann About a third the price but Mybe aint going antwhere until his contract finishes end 2022

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...

Yes..... it has..... slowing down the play the ball has been 6 again all year.

Not in this GP situation, Ref's also have the option to penalise... In this situation 6 more to melb is useless... Imo correct decision.
I tipped Roosters

Momirovski is a smart footballer. He was always going to score that try, he does it all the time.

As close to a pro foul as you could d get..probably shoulda been binned.

You don't reckon players should be forced to get to their feet before playing the ball though? Not just in this instance but in the NRL in general. The PTB's are an absolute mess as far as abiding by the rules of playing the ball goes. It needs to be cleaned up and refereed strictly to prevent a game being absolutely gift-wrapped to a team when the penalty could've easily gone either way.
 
Friend knew instantly that he'd done the wrong thing. That was a fair shove. And a needless one at that. Stupidity deserved a penalty on that occasion. Actually, the ref had only one choice imo.

Yowzers, the spewfest has started on Fox early tonight. Gatorade Bwaiff and The Macho Man Ennis waxing lyrical about Roosters and Storm. "They care for their players", "players go to these clubs as 2nd-raters and end up superstars" etc etc. I can't recall anyone who has gone to either club as a dud and has been magically transformed into a champ. Anyone?
Go Mommers, to hell with the rest tonight.

Thats when i turned the sound off and fast forwarded to the game on Kayo. Watched the game with no sound. Turned the sound on for 5 minutes and heard Cooper Gronk on how he was feeling watching "his" two sides hammering each other. That was it for me.

Sucked in to him, he pushes in the ruck quite a bit and might think twice next time.
