(1) Herbie flicks the ball into the ground over the dead ball line before Arthars grounds it.
I did clarify it in my original post.

Dan Ginnane and yeah he started calling games mid last year but never in a prime-time slot like last night.

WTAF....Milford has also been charged with "Grade 1 dangerous contact - other" on Granville, in the 10th minute. Now, I don't have access to the full game replay, but the extended highlights on NRL TV shows at minute 10, Milf puts his bomb up that Holmes spills. Then it cuts to about 10:50 for Flegs' run and Turps' try. So during the 9th/10th/11th minutes, it's safe to assume we had the ball....yet Milf has supposedly been charged for an incident on Granville during this time?!? He's facing 90 points with an early guilty plea and 120 (ie a week out) if he unsuccessfully challenges?!
Would love to see a clip of the incident if anyone can get access to it...

Milford body-checks Granville off the ball.
It wouldn't have hurt a fly, but it's one of those rare instances where a half gets called on something a prop forward would.

Great result. Had 40 bucks on them so I had a little faith.
Two observations. Croft and Carrigan appear to be leading a core group of young guns. Told to take over and they have. The old guard, Boyd and Macca will be tolerated only as long as they perform.
On Oates I'm satisfied overall and think the criticism is unwarranted. Badly disrupted preseason considered he did very well I thought and his first 50 minutes were strong even with the bomb he should have swallowed with a hoof in touch.

The Milford charge for those curious.
This is getting ridiculous.

**** me that's soft. Lazy by Milf, perhaps, but fucking soft. I look forward to seeing every slightly late hit charged with a Grade 1 for the rest of the round.......not.

Compare the TPJ hit with the Christian Crichton hit on Sivo if you want a glimpse at the corruption of the game.
Crichton came in with a stiff arm and hit Sivo flush in the face, he gets a grade 1 charge w/ a $1150 fine.
TPJ barely makes contact with the head/neck, if at all, and gets his with a grade 2 charge w/ a 4-6 week suspension.
Absolute joke.

This. Crichton's was an actual dog shot to the head and demonstrably worse than Tevita's hit. I hope we take that comparison to the judiciary.

The ****!! Comiting to a tackle is illegal?

The rule is simple. You cannot make contact with a player lying on the ground IF you are wearing a Broncos jersey.

It's precisely because Granville's body was hiding his action that you couldn't easily see Milford leading with both shoulders in succession, using his elbow and throwing 6 uppercuts in quick succession ... and wearing a Broncos jersey which incurs a loading.
lots of press saying JT13 hit on Macca will be candidate for tackle of the year (half way through round 1 ffs). No mention I have seen from the press about Staggs tackle on JT13 on our try line.
I'd love to see a GIF of that Staggs tackle on JT13 on repeat if anyone can provide
