Did anyone hear Voss and Brandy complain about Walsh attacking with 2 mins to go and up by 8 points.

Voss: "Brisbane, remind them they are in front by 8"

Brandy: "Walsh, just not protecting the lead at all "

We'd make the FoxLeague sound like Broncos cheerleaders by comparison, who are we fooling?

That didn’t sound like complaining.

It sounded more like they were liking our mentality that we’re looking to put on points even when the game is over. Their tone didn’t sound like complaining.

Ffs they weren’t complaining…they were excited that he was still chasing points even though most players are taking a safe option.

Brandy wasn’t even there…
 

Simply, the lines on the field make passes that leave the hands just before a line and are caught just after it look worse, even though often they are still passed backwards. There can also be times when a passer has been hit as he or she passes the ball, adding to the optical illusion because often the pass is caught well ahead of where it left the hands, and the passer has been prevented from travelling downfield with the ball.

"Forward passes have been a problem forever and a day," Annesley says.

"The path of the ball across the ground is irrelevant. It's about whether the player who releases the ball has released it in a backwards or flat direction."

I wish the so-called experts on the game like the clowns on Nein who just called Shibasaki Karapani actually understood the game.

They were laughing and it was clearly liking how Brisbane was going about it.

96% of the commentary was about Walsh- not sure how anyone can say Brisbane didn't get enough positive coverage.
 
The media cycle today has been disgusting. Every NRL article is about forward passes robbing the cowboys.

The bias is extraordinary
