ROUND 2- Other games (2018)

That was a good game.
Sinners great victory for them considering the pressure sharks put em under early.
Nonetheless the season is long and Saints are regularly early season premiers.
None from one for me.
That's not too bad.
 
Will Manly be batting or bowling in the first innings at Brookie on Sunday? If we bat first i hope we get enough runs on the scoreboard to keep the Eels from catching us.
 
When @Mark from Brisbane did one last week, it went ok so as he's too busy dodging horny relatives in Tasmania (aren't they all) I thought I'd start one as the new round starts in a few hours!!!

Sharks v Dragons

Roosters v Bulldogs

Broncos v cowboys

warriors v titans

panthers v rabbitohs

storm v wests

raiders v knights

Thanks @globaleagle
 
Raking the ball and not getting penalised is standard in these early rounds, just like early last year. I hope we are awake to that interpretation against the Eels.

I don't buy into the commentators calling it a loose carry. Not in the spirit of the game in my humble opinion. Should be penalised in my opinion on a captains call video replay - if there is evidence that the ball was reefed out.
 
Why didn't they, I don't get it? (I tipped the Dragons by 6) That could cost them down the track.

As unlikely as it would seem, they didn't want something bizarre happening like if the ball cannoned off the upright and was picked up by a Sharks player who goes the length of the field. I was dumfounded as well at first. I kinda get the logic, but couldn't see Whiddop missing from there.
 
I thought the ref was pretty bad bad last night , the other games I saw last week the standard was alot higher.

Yes I thought of that also; however, I’ve seen those little kick for touches come off the side of the boot for the opposition to pick up and run down field also.
