The crowd booed so the pass was forward, that is outstanding as well lmao

eagleE said:David, you must be a QLDer. No NSW fan would ever say that was a forward pass or that even the refs had a fair game. There was a lot of holding down by the QLD team especially Smith. The penalties mentioned were dead set penalties not interpretations on the rule. How they could call a forward pass is really questionable and the coach would not be doing his job if the did not question the referees boss. The coach is there to get every advantage he can for his team and that includes putting pressure on the referees or clarifying any questions. Sticky is doing exactly what he needs to do. He did not raise the issue on the night but the next day when the dust is settling. He did the right thing.

EagleE you must be a NSW'elshman, because all QLD fans would say there was just has much holding down by NSW.

Yes Nodd, I am NSWelshman. The failure by the referees to officiate at a SOO standard is magnified by the errors in judgement. NSW did hold. QLD hold down more and get away with it. Maybe NSW should pick players who could get up quicker and play the ball quicker. Maybe the refs should penalise when QLD slow the ball down. Gallen said directly after the game when interviewed on the field that QLD held them down more. Very smart man Gallen. But also proves that NSW were aware of it as well during the game.
