For mine in that game it was the Toby Sexton "knock on", how is it a knock on? maybe he knocks it on with one hand but then he knocks it back with the other and it never makes contact with a Newcastle player, the ref now has an easy out and isn't made to feel responsible for such a ****ty call because of the challenge system, the ref can simply say "well if you didn't waste your challenge"..

I think that might have been the call that led up to Newcastle getting field position for the try you're speaking about, actually

Yep you are right and it is an easy out for the ref which sucks. That whole period was like origin, totally ruined what was shaping up to be a good finish. But even the knock on call would be ok if every time a hall was dropped it was consistently called. Maybe that’s what needs to happen, you drop a ball forward or backward, it’s a knock on. Simplify the rule, I don’t know. But the current system is fundamentally broken.

Even so, I can still live with that but the Lee one is inexcusable, there is no way whatsoever that upon review, that can be called a try, the technology did what it was supposed to do and showed it was about as clear a No try as you can get. This is one of those rare times where the ref actually got it right and then the idiot in the box goes against what the technology shows anyone who isn’t blind. What is the point of the technology if you are still just going to ignore it?

Did Holbrook say anything about it?

Like the Coates one last year where the video ref ignores the colour of the player's arms and then the NRL double down on it after the game?

Ramien bombing backline movements already... idiot had mass space outside him there... and yes it's pissing down rain, but he completely bombed a huge play then... it could've quite easily been another try

Yeh Commbank is the new improved Lang park say the Sydney commentators. Look at the state of it. More like a kiddies paddling pool than a state of the art stadium.
JAC lucky to not be binned for that spear tackle. So inconsistent these refs.

I think Commbank is the best NRL ground in Sydney, I know there are stadiums that hold more but in terms of atmosphere and seating, it looks ideal. The turf though, probably needs a bit of work

Are they painted? I thought it was digitally inserted in the broadcast. Not sure though.

I'm pretty sure they're digital too. You don't see them in the other angles. I assume the fact that the water is a reflective surface messes it up.

So Fifita has made sure Casey goes off. Bit unfortunate for the young debutante, but I think a few more games in NSW cup would do him well.

Touchie had one job and he couldn't see that ball going out on the full?

I don't see why the bunker couldn't overturn that.

Bunker can only get involved when multiple tackles have passed and it benefits the Panthers.

That's the frame the bunker would have relied on, and it's understandable why they said try.
