[QUOTE="m1c, post: 2401215, member: 1944"] Last night spurned a serious think about the effect penalties have had over the last few weeks. The Dragons were just about penalised out of the game against us, whilst it would have been a tragedy had the Warriors lost. IMO penalties have too big an effect on the modern game. Back to back or piggyback sets are just too influential to the outcome of a match. Momentum is king, overriding skill and professionalism. Take out the opening 20 minutes where Manly were handed this on a platter and the Broncos outscored them. Ruck infringements are just impossible to police subjectively. They are SUCH a grey area. Every game you see worse let go, lesser ones penalised and more often than not the players have no intent to commit a foul as it is - they don't want to concede a penalty! IMO the kick for touch needs to be abolished, kept only for foul play. [/QUOTE]
