Stop press: Every single Team to challenge full-time in a one score game

Yep, teams will also be more inclined to save challenges too.
I don't think so , I think they will use them as they do now but agree that there is definitely a chance a team will challenge on the end of time if there was even any chance of an issue leading up.

Apparently they blow a whistle to stop play and it’s fair game at that point. Opens up a major can of worms so that rule will now be changed. No doubt.
 
End of game challenges will come out every time someone has one in a close game. As Annesley said the entire play has to be reviewied.
What are you challenging?
Oh the knock on sir
What knock on?
Oh you know the vibe of the knock on just now

Golden point will be fun. Every time it will be challenged and they will start finding a lot of minor stuff
 
Yeah, that was my first though too. It happens in cricket when the last batter out has a review to burn. Analogy aside, the review system and state of umpiring in cricket is infinitely better than in the nrl.

The refs should run Wests tigers. Only way we could get worse.

All you have to say is obstruction and they will look at the play. Dumb.

Until now I've never even noticed or considered there being a whistle for time off and a whistle for full time. They always happened straight after each other. Now there's this chasm for who ever tigers are playing to basically Rort 🙄
 
I got tired of watching Rugby because of the complex and hard to follow technical rulings and stoppages of play. I loved League because I thought it was a simple game. This ridiculous situation has ruined it for me.

I'd say
"I am challenging the indiscretion!"
"Which indiscretion?"
"Any of them!"
 
Annesley’s smirk at the end of his press conference should see him fired! Knob.
As the reports and Annesley are saying goodbye he says “see you next week” surely that tells them something. when they have to schedule a weekly meeting to explain the rules something isn’t right.

All of them?
Imagine a kick off like the end of the tigers game with every player trying to run into an opponent and dive. With Benny Hill music of course.
 
If I were coaching the Tigers, I’d instruct the boys to save their challenges until full time and ensure they challenge at the end of every single match. It would prove a point… There’s even a way we can do it to guarantee a penalty to us every time if we have the footy and are losing… I’d instruct the boys at the siren, to put through a short grubber that will result in the opposition diving on the ball. Someone should then go up to that opponent (who no doubt will stay lying on the ground) and pretend to touch them by placing the hand about 2 c/m above the opponents body. The ref, thinking that player has been touched (and therefore tackled) will attempt to end the game. As soon as the ref blows the “first whistle” the captain should then challenge for a voluntary tackle…
