Other Games [Round 19, 2021]

[Jerry1]

Don't entirely understand that final try attempt as there was no attempt at a tackle.

But then again it was justice as Brown was offside for their previous try.

No difference in pushing him over the line with your hip or your arms / hands.

 

[Waz13]

Not these days - They don't penalise a player inside the 10m if they are deemed to be 'passive'. But Brown was 'active' even though he didn't touch the ball.

Really? Didn’t know that. My mistake Ranga. Soz mate.

 

[eagleron]

Tried their best to gift that to the squeals it ended up being a hip charge

I thought once again the ref did all he could to get the filth over the line, he'll probably be running the sideline next week as punishment for failing

A defender doesn't have to attempt to tackle an attacker, it is kosher to push them over the side line or dead in goal line.

Nothing to be sorry about, buddy! I’m not sure when they introduced the rule, it’s fairly recent I think.

Sharks next week, then Storm, then Parra.

Bring em on

If it's a shoulder charge is it still ok?

 

[Waz13]

All we have to do is keep winning and we take their top 4 spot

There is every chance Parra may not win another regular season game.

Who would really know with the rules these days tho hey. They change every season anyway.

I hope you are right feathered friend . They are chasing Milford . They are chasing their tails here I think

This was one game the filth thought they had in the bag, with the number of players missing for the Raiders and the loss of Pappalii early they would have checked the two points early on, fantastic result and even with Moses back I see them struggling for the rest of the year, as we all know Moses isn't a big game player so even with him back I reckon their season is cooked

Would be interesting if they slipped to 6 and played the Raiders in week 1 of the semifinals.

That was semi-final defence from the Raiders. Brutal. Loved it. And Rapana, he just competes for everything. That 40/20 kick he stopped. Not a lot of fullbacks could’ve pulled that off. And then knocking Sivo into Disneyland at the end. Body on the line. Nothing wrong with that.

Definitely one of the best non-manly games I have seen this year.

While on a personal level I feel for Henry Perenara having to give up his on-field refereeing career due to a heart condition ... his full time move into the bunker has not improved the quality of his refereeing.

He's still garbage.

Of course not.. and tonight's wasn't a shoulder charge....it was a hip-check. nothing illegal about it.

They always seem to be in the market for every player that becomes available, since their salary cap punishment (for the want of a better word) they seem to have signed a thousand players, I don't understand how they are able to compete in the market place so vigorously, do they still have a Greenturd ordered salary cap dispensation? Perhaps someone should have a word in V'landys ear

He was a sh1t referee who seemed to have a particular hatred for the Eagles, shouldn't be involved at any level imo

Wasn't sure, had vague memories of Ponga getting let off a shoulder charge charge in a similar try scoring situation.
