Harrigan's "Official View" re Wolfmans possible penalty try

mmmdl said:
Did the referee make the right call when David Williams was hit high – could this have been a penalty try?

This could potentially have been awarded a penalty try. The referee thought that David Williams had made a double-movement so he penalised the first infringement, which was a high tackle against the Warriors.

Umm, if this is the case why did the referee then try and refer it to the video ref? Shortall clearly stuffed up by blowing the penalty without referring it upstairs.

Oh, and to Warren Smith you moron - Manly didn't get lucky on that call. The high shot occurred BEFORE the alleged double movement, meaning referral or not, it would have always been a penalty at the very least to Manly.

Is it just me, or does anyone else want to jump through the t.v and shut Warren Smith up when he calls a Manly game. Or any game lol.

As for Hollywood, they need to get some one else. Maybe an ex player from the modern era? Not sure how that would go or if anyone would do it.

When Harrigan says that the ref thought the two acts were similtaneous was he thinking that the double movement came as he was hit in the head. Weird really. I wasn't aware that William's arms were that long that he could have had his head hit, as he put the ball down and advanced it.
I could replace Harrigan easily. Actually anyone could, with the possible exception of Napper.

You're not alone!!!! I'm gunna get Stewie Griffin to invent me a device that lets me punch him for every stupid call he makes. If successful I will be able to render him unconscious before either team runs out onto the field.

Seems like we all like to whine about Harrigan but can anyone put up an alternative that can a better job? I think not!

Ray Charles.

He's 8 years dead.

How about Stevie Wonder instead?
