Round 3: NON Manly games - discussion

[Tomay]

This new rule is going to screw our team. The ref's are going to bend us over, wait until we get Henry Peranara - 12 players against 18 tackle sets.

I already don't like the 6 again call. They just had 3 sets. The players didn't even have time to keep up with what was happening.

 

[Bring back the.... Biff?]

Oh here we go

 

[niccipops]

The slime's 5th set in a row now.
Make that 6 with the dropout.

 

[Bring back the.... Biff?]

Perfect start my ASS! 3 penalties and all the ball.. 1 set to Brisbane

 

[Bring back the.... Biff?]

Great hit! Smash these cheats

 

[HoldenV8]

What the hell are they thinking with the fake crowd noise???

It's cringe worthy amateur hour.

Hate the one on one strip rule as well. It feels like touch football out there with all these new rules from the last few years.

 

[niccipops]

I'm wondering if the 6 to go calls are recorded in the stats? It seems to me you can really skew the refereeing stats if claiming that there was only a 4-2 penalty count when one team may have 10-1 6 to go call.
I'm with @Tomay on the ball strip too. If two go in the tackle and one drops off, the strip shouldn't be allowed.

I thought it's supposed to be the same as a penalty, they just give 6 again to speed up the play. So I think it should be out down as a penalty.

Gotta say I’m liking the virtual crowd noise , so much better than nothing.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

And is it the repeat sets because god damn this game is fast!!!

I’m going out on a ledge here but I think the virtual crowd noise is ok , yeah not the same as live but better than the echo of an empty stadium.

 

[Will on the hill]

Small sample size but I like what I see from 1 ref and six more rule. Could be a little biased after having no footy for 10 weeks but I really enjoyed that half. Seemed to be free flowing.

It’s bloody fast at present!!

 

[Leader of the Flock]

Anybody else feeling a little dirty, I feel dirty, I’m beginning to feel a self loathing as I’m actually kind of barracking for the donkeys. Dam you slime, that you’ve reduced me to this.

We need some virtual booing the ref as well. Also, a hologram streaker to add a bit of scandal.

They will count it as a seperate stat. No doubt this was in their thinking when the introduced it. Now they can crack down on slowing the play the ball without blowing out the penalty count.

Aren't you a Boomer? You oldies aren't supposed to like all this virtual reality stuff LOL

j/k mate.

 

[dowdz]

Wow. Fast game. Not sure if I am a fan of this 6 to go thing. It will cripple our team i think. Don't really mind the fake crowd noise. Cant believe I will say this but want the donkeys to get up. How good is one ref though.
