Other games [Round 10, 2021]

[HK_Eagle]

That was a shocking call on Townsends apparent crusher tackle on Walker. Changed the game. Deadset joke.

I only just got to watch this as I was tied up in a workshop all day and missed most of the games. I cannot remember being more pi$$ed off about a decision and I couldn't give a $hit about either of these teams.. That decision was so disgusting. I'm beyond shocked.

 

[globaleagle]

Why does Tedesco ALWAYS fall to his knees when going into a tackle or attempting to pass the ball?? Even Tooves would get him high for crying out loud.

When I heard about the new crack-down I thought I posted something along the lines of "Well...Teddy will fall into a tackle and get an opposition player sent to the bin." Can't find it however, so maybe I dreamt it (which is even more worrying, quite frankly).

But yes.. the guy drops to his knees just before he gets tackled but apparently some of the ex-playing experts in commentary just don't see it. He'll lose his head one day and finish his career like his captain, Cordner. And I'm fine with that.

What about the BS interchange rule when Teddy went off and straight back on

It's terrible, and the guys running the game who claim to be smarter than everyone else (though all one does is ring his childhood mate, uncle nick, for advice) should have seen that loophole a coming.

But the nrl will do one of two things: Try to fix it (but they have as much success as the introduction of cane toads to deal with those pesky bugs) or,

simply say of you don't want the loophole exploited, don't hit high.

About Tedesco, I agree. If he is going to continually fall to his knees as he is about to be tackled (note if he thinks he can continue running he won't fall.....), then he is going to get seriously hurt one of these days and I totally agree he'll end up like Cordner if he's not careful. And TBH I won't have a lot of sympathy for him because his own technique is a big part of the problem.

About the HIA interchange ... as per usual the NRL have realistically caused this themselves by not policing the HIA like they should have. Teams have been exploiting it for a while and I have lost count (especially from Doesn't-matta) of the amount of times I have seen players limp off or holding their wrist, chest, shoulder ... and its a HIA. And the more they've gotten away with exploiting it, the more they look for other ways and this crap again going off and straight back on is just the latest way of doing things.

So if Teddy was hit high enough for the player to be reported and binned, why wasn't he off for 15mins with an HIA, instead of 1 min on the sideline, with free interchange for foul play then runs back on to replace a tired forward. Easy fix NRL, the player who replaced Teddy (or any injured player) must go off when he's fit to return, it's another complete rort.

As will happen next week. The non stop penalty, set restart legup festival to Parra has begun.

Yep, warriors have 2 set completed in first 20mins,

 

[mickqld]

It's rivetting stuff nrl when games are over after 20min.

Surprise, surpruse a Parra player clocks someone in the head and there's no action. The NRL are kidding themselves with this obvious bias to that sh*t scum.

I'm also predicting that Penrith players will mysteriously be getting away with it later this afternoon as well. The Western Sydney script is written.....

They won't be that disciplined ... but the refs will see them that way.

And following 2 days of whinging coaches l sure the refs will settle down as we have the top teams on show

 

[cc eagle]

7 set restarts in the 1st half, thought they were cracking down on them, on yeah that's right the worms are playing

 

[cc eagle]

Warriors best completion rate in the comp, at half time 43%

 

[mickqld]

Amazing how s**t Parra really is when they aren't being given set restart legups.

I expect them to be gifted a few next Sunday arvo.

I'm surprised if any of them could even read.

Listen to Cronk on Fox…..this guy is so fvcking annoying with his dumb questions. What the hell was Fox thinking when they employed him as a commentator. Him, Anasta, Sampson & Parker….. what a joke. Lolol Arthur scored a try & Yvonne is now squirting live on TV….oops here goes Cronk also lolololol.
