    That worries me significantly for our game vs them. They nearly always come out possessed the next game after a mediocre showing.

    I agree to an extent but it's no the defender's responsibility to try and get around an attacking player who has just blatantly stopped in the line. I mean I didn't see the decoy making an effort either, he just stood there also.

    Melbourne do it so often it's basically a tactic, I've got no issues with that being penalised.

    Geez Cam Smith must be insufferable for refs. So blatantly was never going for the ball there.

    Geez the Dogs have been impressive given the clear gulf in class.

    This last 20 minutes of back and forth has been so intense, feel for the Dogs there's been 3 absolute criminal forward passes out of dummy half from the Storm that even if 1 of them was called could've really changed the complexion of the game.

    As I type this Munster goes over after the first error you can remember in the last 20.
     
  5. Tartmaster AJ James

    If I was a ref I'd much rather have him than the likes of Graham, DCE, Burgess etc.

    Lack of urgency from Ponga there. What about that cutout pass tho!
     
  7. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Ponga. Size him up for the Qld jersey right now.
     
  8. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Brown fucked up but at least he knew when to quit the experiment.
     
  9. Magic AJ Parker

    Thats so dumb from Tariq, Dragons had all the momentum and had the Knights kicking from inside their own 40.

    Er is that even a penalty against Sims? And that rule needs to be changed. The mark should be where the kick was taken. Not where it fucking lands.
     
  11. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    I seriously don’t think that’s a pen against Sims. Where was the high contact? Looked like Pearce’s own arm hit himself in the head.
     
  12. Magic AJ Parker

    Agreed it wasn't a high tackle but he was late. I'm not sure when it became acceptable to hit a player after the ball has left their hands. He was never ever getting to him in time.
     
  13. Magic AJ Parker

    Newcastle's kicking game has been horrendous
     
  14. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    How the fuck are they not penalising these rucks? lol
     
  15. Magic AJ Parker

    Geez thats such a dumb play on 1st tackle by the Knights with scores locked, 20m out and 6 minutes to go.
     
  16. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Well it’s always been legal. If you’re committed...

    I’d have to watch it again.
     
  17. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Can’t believe Ponga kicked there. FG is the obvious option.
     
  18. Magic AJ Parker

    Lol Matt Checcin with the troll
     
  19. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    God Pearce has been shit this year...
     
  20. Magic AJ Parker

    I'd love to see what the percentage is for field goal attempts after being charged down. It must be something that plays on your mind. You could see Pearce looking for contact, didn't have his head down over the ball and hooked it as a result.
