But just like everyone watching from home knows that Feldt is going to try to milk a penalty on every carry, everyone knows that Luai is going to push one of the markers out of the way, JWH is going to find a way to drop an elbow in to someone's face (with or without the ball), and Mitchell is going to dog shot someone because they tackled him. There is no way the ref's don't know this unless they genuinely do not watch games and live in a bubble where the Refs spoon-feed them only the information that the NRL wants them to act on.

The NAS play the ball is even more baffling because it is a huge benefit to play it how he does.

By just tunnel ball clawing the ball backwards with no attempt at striking the ball, he doesn't have to steady himself properly and its just a much quicker play the ball.

He can also be driving forward into the markers as he just claws it backwards.

Its a mess, but storm so nothing to see here.

The riff get away with the pretend play the ball heaps as well not to mention the very late 3rd man pile on tackle, mostly by Yeo, who doesn't peel off first which they do regardless of dominance or not.

Been playing that way for 3 years so it won't stop anytime soon.
Who cheats best wins in today's NRL.

I dont have any dramas with Kafusi being banned, but i'm still a bit puzzled Luai isnt banned when others have been. As usual, all we want is a bit of consistency and we dont get it.

About 55 seconds in is the Thaiday incident. If thats a weeks ban, so is Luai.

And the ch 9 footy show made no mention of the Luai incident because of NSW bias and simply never covered or analysed our game at all because of the glaring inconsistencies. They did briefly mention the Staggs no try but just to say it was the right call so ok for the onfield ref to overrule the bunker.
Absolute garbage.

You reckon? I actually don't think it should be a suspension in either case. Both should be fines imo...and as much as I want to slap Luai with whatever I can, his fine would be lower than Thaidays in this instance. Luai has the ability to argue that he didn't realise it was an official that he made contact with...Sam knew exactly who he was talking to.

Side note, is that the same game where the ref touched Parker when they were talking and Parker said 'Don't touch me mate'? One of the great moments

That would be because he's unfairly picked upon by the referees. Even under the most generous intepretation it needed 10 in the bin if even there was a sin bin needed.

I don't know how you can get cited for a headbutt, but then not binned... I guess the NRL consider a headbutt to be less than a punch or a trip now??

On another note... Really enjoyed the mother of all boomer quotes from the Sheenius... urging people to take their twitter and place it somewhere else.

And that was the incident that I mentioned where you can clearly see Thaiday being held in the scrum AFTER the ball had left it, and the refs cleared it as "part of the scrum". So not only do the Storm get one of their tries through blatant cheating, but we then lose Thaiday for a week.

Oh but it wasn't a headbutt, it was "leading with the head". I'd like someone to "lead with the foot" in Radley's face.

Fair enough... I hope people start leading with their fist into Luai's face, knowing now they'll only get put on a report

Sounds like a certain try from a few years ago.

Ennis showing his dogs bias in this with one wanting to go back to pass off the ground... comes down to his ball carrying arm touching the ground... not his back or knees or anything else

I think it should just be black and white like it is in other code and competitions. You touch the ref, you are banned. Cant argue they are both a bit tame really.
