CROSS FORUM NRL 2022 Round 13 Discussion

[Galah]

I will say, the cowboys get away with a lot.

 

[Harry Sack]

That's why Jamayne, that's why.

 

[Big Pete]

Wallace was begging to be penalised though... got his arm stuck initially, but then it got released and he continued to crowd him.

Was just stupidity I thought

Wallace didn't do himself any favours and ultimately it's his responsibility but really what impact did it have on the play? That's a huge intervention and it's had a big bearing on the game.

 

[GCBRONCO]

It's all that good coaching he's getting from the Titans

Think of what he can bring to the Dolphins in their debut season!

 

[mrslong]

*whispers* did we make jamayne look better than he actually is?

It didn't really have any impact on the play, but it just wasn't necessary when you had already slowed the ruck down and then continued to crowd.

It's like Esan last week, he had already given away 2 six agains on the single tackle, but then pushes him down again. The pushback from Esan didn't really have any major impact given he already gave two six agains away, and the ref didn't want to put another one of them in the bin so quickly, but he gave him no choice.

I thought the ref was being patient enough with Wallace and then he just took the piss.

It's frightening

Wayne will fix him

 

[lynx000]

Wayne will fix him

Wayne fixes everyone

... except
...

 

[GCBRONCO]

It's frightening

He's making Lachlan Maranta look like he was an international winger

 

[theshed]

I remember quite a few posters saying they wouldn’t mind Isaako on a wing because there’s only so much you can **** up from the wing - boy was that wrong

 

[Super Freak]

Titans are fucking shit house. Why the **** did I tip them instead of going Cowboys 13-18?

 

[Galah]

Titans are fucking shit house.

It bodes well for future broncos being enticed by them.

exhibit A. They’re the titans.

The oranges?

Wallace was barely on him a second when he gave Taumalolo the slightest of shoves. It wasn't really anything like Marsters who carried on and then gave a full blown shove.

It's one of those situations where I'm fine if the official gives the defence some leeway and manages it. Keep a note of it and if they think they can carry on again, punish them.

Granted I did miss the start of the game so Wallace may have already used up that chance.

Comparing it to Marsters is a stretch.

 

[GCBRONCO]

BAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[GCBRONCO]

BOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMBED

The comparison to Marsters was more about both situations not giving the ref an option to let it go rather than similarities between the penalties.

For Marsters the ref wouldn't have wanted to bin him straight after sending someone else to the bin only 1 min earlier... but he completely took the piss and forced his hand.

For Wallace the ref wouldn't have wanted to give a six again on last tackle... otherwise he could've penalised him for the initial slowing down... but when everything is all settled down and ready to go, Wallace gives him another shove. It was unnecessary and right in front of the ref after he may have already given him leeway.

Wallace had also got his arm stuck right under the posts near the start of the game, so potentially the ref had had enough of his 'arm getting stuck' and slowing things down.
