All NRL Games [Round 8, 2024]

[bob dylan]

Nothing game in Townsville.

The NRL agree.

Kasey Badger refereeing.

 

[bob dylan]

So the video ref can now tell if there was "intent" to strip.

Must be powerful video equipment if it can read the minds of defenders.

I wonder how many more seasons I will watch the NRL.

So they make the player move back 20mm to play the ball, yet the kickers can move forward a metre to kick for touch... Then the Roosters guy is in front of the line when he takes a short drop out. Just make it up as they go. Offside from kick offs. it is getting a tuff and frustrating game to watch

 

[mave]

Ive been reliably informed on here that in the modern game these sort of defensive efforts are impossible.

Broncos and Panthers say otherwise....despite being on the wrong end of mountains of possession.


Edited by to add....and both away from home.....

100%.

The Bunker can’t rule on a forward pass when the ball clearly goes forward out of the hands. But it can read minds and declare what someone’s intentions were. The game is broken.

 

[mave]

The standard of the refereeing is diabolical at the moment.

 

[Frogz]

Is there a record for 6 agains??... I think Badger might have a new PB.

 

[mave]

This has been the worst half of refereeing I think Ive ever seen.

 

[Dion Johnson]

This has been the worst half of refereeing I think Ive ever seen.

How Badger gets another gig refereeing is beyond belief, stick to being touch judge.

These touch judges are getting way to involved calling line balls forward, one against Manly where Tom would have sealed the game and the Nanai first try today wasn’t forward..

 

[mave]

Everyone talks about the refs "game management".

Badger wasnt even trying to hide it in thr 2nd half.

Obvious is obvious.

 

[Under the Sticks]

Just a general observation. Is there a bigger pest in the game than John Bateman? There is niggle in just about everything he does

Reed Mahoney gets my vote.

 

[Eagle 1]

Tumble-lomo just going through the motions, and taking 1m of the Cow's money for years to come. It's the Cow's Schuster signing.

 

[Uk eagle]

Reed Mahoney gets my vote.

I kinda agree with Mahoney plus Latrell and Cody Walker but I reckon Bateman takes the prize. There is niggle in every tackle whether he's got the ball or defending. But he reminds me of a scrapyard dog, he won't back down to anyone regardless of giving size away

 

[frank stokes]

That was a full stitch-up by Badger in the 2nd half… she could not possibly make so many bad calls in favour of Cows by accident… absolutely horrendous…

 

[Frogz]

What are everyone's thoughts on the Anzac theme going all weekend?.... NO disrespect at all by me, actually far from it. But I feel it just drags on after the main day which is the 25th.

We might not have won a premiership since he signed the contract, but as far as keeping himself on the park goes ... DCE is one of the few million dollar contract players in the NRL who seems to stay injury free year after year, and until this week pretty much suspension free too.

 

[HK_Eagle]

Vossy rabbiting on with a Reece Walsh lovefest and the donkeys aren’t even playing. Nothing to do with this game today.

FCKEN DIABOLICAL THANK YOU ! 😡😵‍💫

 

[HoldenV8]

When you have a defensive line advancing IN YOUR IN GOAL .... you don't pass the ball.

Got away with it by only giving away a line drop out ... but that was a crazy pass by Isaako.

Anzac Day feels like it was last year already.
