Pre-match Finals [Week 1, 2017]

And the crock from officials continues. Shark's gifted a 5th tackle penalty while Cows were bashing them and had them pinned down on their 20. Ref calls it a strip, which was complete BS. Sharks come up on the back of the penalty and score to go 8 ahead. Gee, that is just woeful stuff with a huge impact on another game... FFS!

I mentioned this trend in an earlier Manly game when we copped a similar decision. It just drives me crazy that refs feel the need to penalise a defensive team whenever they are bashing a team defensively down on their line.

If ever there's an example of a stitch up, that penalty leading to Bird's try is a classic. The cows were diddled...

And fella,s and girls. You will have to watch league wrap after the game.They are going to highlight the Panthers gutsy. Oh thats what they call getting the 50/50 calls and getting help from the bunker, a gutsy win.Nah I think I,ll pass

Imagine the almighty expletive-riddled spray JT would be giving the officials if he was playing. Perhaps we'll see the emergence of southern conspiracies against northern teams if the Cow's eventually go down today???

Gould and the footy gods... good grief! As if some mystical power somehow makes woeful ref decisions right. Where were your "footy gods" last night, Gould?

10 minutes of extra time 😱

Refs are atrocious in this game as well

Considering all the injuries cows are still a good side

The only team i will be supporting going forward. Could not stand any other team winning it.

 

[Simonmyers11]

All we need is morgan and taulmalomo in manly and we would be set

You have to admire the cows determination and ability to grind out a win. Glad the shark fuc#ers are out..

Happy with that result. Refs were shocking.

They have discipline, so don't waste their focus, energy on anything but footy.

Maloney spent 10 in the bin, Cows scored whilst he was off 😎

Baz must instill discipline into Manly.

It is really irritating to watch our players focus on dumb personal sideshows, whilst the scoreboard keeps rolling on

They are going on and on on fox how devastating it must be now for the sharks now that the premier's season is over. Puke
