Was pretty obviously a strip

It's the wording from the bunker that's changing.
A few weeks back there were calls of "player just removing their arm" and "no stripping action"... now there's a hand on the ball and it's a strip if they lose it.
No onus on the player to hang onto the ball anymore... the ball was in a susceptible position... but you just know that the bunker will change that interpretation in the near future.. pending what the onfield ref has adjudicated

They usually support the on-field decision in those situations. Roosters receiving some luck here.
Suaalii lets the Bulldogs off the hook, but then Burton fires a poor pass and Perham can't reel it in.
Roosters don't mess around, that was a great field goal set and it allowed Keary to take a simple shot.

That was an important get-out-of-jail performance from the Roosters. It wasn't flash but when the opportunity presented itself they stepped up and took advantage. Canterbury had their own opportunities but there were three errors late in the half that hurt them.
