WHAT?!?!?!? Not surprised. He was fucking disgraceful and even if he didn't strip that ball, he should have known that if a ball is lost in a 3-man tackle it will always be called a strip. He should have just not got involved with the play at all, he has no game awareness.
Walters got praise because he took the game personally. Sloan decided to be a dipshit and wouldn't give us the ball when it was a turnover, Billy made it clear we weren't going to cop that shit. The rest of the game he made it his business to let the opposition know we weren't going to be...
Because he can't catch shit when he is running hard. If he spent as much time improving his handling as he does looking in the mirror, he might be more effective.

FMD we had 37% possession in the first half. Mozer looked good but only because we stopped dropping the ball early in the count and the ref started to even out the 6-1 penalty count.
It's not just having about half of our salary cap...
Yes I have, and my opinion still stands. He is a downhill runner. He can do some freakish stuff for a forward, but only on the back of field position and momentum earned by others. He would have been useless in Origin 2.
Fifita has played Origins before and has been almost invisible. In club games you can disappear for 60 minutes and then have a highlight reel 20 minutes and it gets papered over. Not in Origin.
Not only missing Reynolds (countered by Cleary out) but also missing Riki & Staggs, 10+ injuries total, and losing our halfback at half time... against the Panthers... and we didn't get beaten by 24+? I'll take that compared to the previous 4 games. Good signs IMO.
Watching the game last night, credit to the Rabbitohs because the refs were favouring the Eels pretty much the entire game. In games where I don't care who wins, it's easier to be impartial and if anything I wanted Fattrell to choke, but they earned that win. The only theory I can suggest is...
Agree, and the Captains Challenge is the one avenue that teams have up their sleeve if they get a genuine dodgy call - it gets highly scritinised from all angles and in slow-mo for everyone to see. They still don't always get them right, but if it's a howler and the bunker goes along with it...
Same point applies. We saw what happened when the Storm and other grub teams got penalised out of games, the media went apeshit and reverted to "leniency".
The 6-again was to prevent the offending team from having time to reset their defence (which is why they were giving the penalties away). I...
I agree in theory, but we know what teams will get sent. And we know what teams will keep infringing because the ref won't blow the penalties and risk having to send someone from that team.
The 6-again was brought in for a genuine reason, and that was to prevent teams like the Roosters deliberately giving away penalties in order to allow their defence to reset.
Further, when the Panthers used the rule to be permanently off-side while pinning an opponent on their line (with the...
