Someone explain how 15 - Mitchell can just open a huge hole in the line, stand there and prevent a player making any play at a tackle and it be a try?

If I were a Wahs fan, I would be fuming.
 
I haven't liked the way this game has been officiated both ways. That isn't a sin bin.
Agree, it's laughable that repeat infringements for pretty much the same thing - high tackles - doesn't warrant a sin bin yet one from the Warriors and you're off.

I would've thought that once Klein penalised Souffs six times in 20 mins with what, 4 of those high tackles that he'd call out the captain and say " l know it's wet but that's X amount of penalties for the same thing so be better or someone may go to the bin" but....
 
These Fox commentary guys trying to justify this garbage! Deadset, it is because one high tackle was from Cook and he is an origin player, the sin bin is because the score was 6-4 Warriors. **** this comp. It's gross.

To be fair most of them were soft. I just don't like a stop start game in an already hard game to play in because of the weather.

The Warriors player needed to throw himself to the ground, otherwise they wouldn't even look at it.

I'd have to see this one again but looked like Murray ran the next hole over.
 
The Warriors blew some golden opportunities and that Johnston try came off the back of a rookie mistake from Berry. Still, that Fonua-Blake call, off the back of a phantom off-side call has completely changed the complexion of the game.

That tackle wasn't as bad as the Ilias one from earlier.
