LIVE GAME *Spoilers* Round 7 Discussion

[The Fresh Oil]

Dolphins look like a team been playing together for years .Strange to see when they put up bomb I see about 3 Dolphins chase down the kick at high speed . Something we don't do
They also defended their line twice when rabbits looked certain to score .
Their 3rd choice half Nikorima very involved running many plays
Well we have a new coach and new players and have to get used to each other unlike the Dolphins who have years to settle down their combinations LOL

They are missing Kafusi and SOS and Milford no problem
By the way Souths are playing well running fast and high completions imo

Agreed. Dolphins could also be 2 more tries up if passes stick/ passed left. Amazing what a competent coaching staff can achieve.

Anyone notice how bad the turf is holding up across a bunch of grounds this season? The boots change or something?

Been pretty wet

 

[The Fresh Oil]

How unlucky. Thought Lee was out when it Bounced off him.

 

[Kaito]

Isaako was on the line when he touched
that ball. South's always get the rub of the
green. Crazy didn't they didn't look at that

 

[Tucker]

Anyone think that wasn’t a try?

 

[innsaneink]

Was the dolphins player in touch when the ball touched him?
Walkers try

 

[Stevec]

Rabbits 2 tries both involving freakish bounce of the ball been a bit lucky

 

[Tucker]

Was the dolphins player in touch when the ball touched him?
Walkers try

I think we all saw that.
Shocking miss by officials
Only Cam Smith mentioned it.

Walkers try

He was sat on the line when it ricocheted
off his foot on that front shot 4 sure Ink...

Lots of high balls left bounce by fullbacks here... I thought only Laurie did it

Fullback is a second 5/8th these days. Very few expert bomb defusers amongst them.

 

[Tucker]

Bromwich timing was out by about 0.3 of a second then.

 

[gallagher]

That's Wests tigers type of stupid

 

[Tiger-ferret]

Bromwich should have been sent then

 

[Tucker]

Bromwich should have been sent then

Come on, it was so close to a brilliant hit…less than a second.

 

[innsaneink]

Powerful from mitchell

By brilliant do you mean run full pelt at a bloke not looking at you with at no stage knowing where the ball was and making blatant contact with the head with his shoulder? Grubby play.

I said close.
This ain’t netball mate.
Send offs should not be dealt out like confetti.

I agree about the send offs. There’s hardly any. I just think in context in this era where they are protecting players heads, that should have been one. If the player had the ball, he still gets 10 in the bin for forceful contact with the head.

The MMM call said it was because of the concerts that have been held there ... I dunno ... just passing on what I've heard.
