Interesting watching NRL tonight and how Paul Crawley stated as fact that the first penalty on the 3rd set of the game vs Tigers was NOT an offside penalty.
He reviewed the refs overhead feed and Manly were 12 to 13m back and did not jump the gun. Penalty was BS. Called by the pocket ref.
From then Tigers played perfect footy for the next 17 mins. 3 drop outs and 3 more pens and 2 tries.
Manly had one set in 17 minutes.
After that Manly were crap, but probably the game was lost set off by that BS penalty and Tigers perfect play for 17 minutes.
