NRL Round 3 Discussion

Why is that a penalty?

There's no stripping action and not like there was a second effort in the tackle
I think the mic caught the ref saying it was going to be a set restart for hand on ball and when it popped out it became a penalty...
 
What's Saifiti supposed do there?

He was wrapping up the ball so naturally his hand is going to be on the ball. The Tigers player milked that.
 
Don't really want the dolphins coming into next week 0/3 ... they'll be up for it regardless, but even more so if they're looking for their first win.
 
NRL really has to do something about players taking a step or two forward before playing the ball.

It used to be a penalty.
