POST GAME [Round 18, 2022] Broncos vs Titans

Regarding the Hetherington offside penalty, that was a bullshit call. This is the penalty.



There's no replay that shows Kobe offside so you have to look at the live play footage which clearly shows him as passive.

This is the offside rule and interpretation. An active offside player shall not encroach within 10, but Kobe is not active. He's passive and he does not influence the course of the game. Not only that, but Reynolds runs him onside so it should have been play on and our ball for an error by Brimson.

We would have had the ball in the attacking zone and we were a good chance of scoring a try from it.

Could we have challenged this call?

As the referee explained, when you're within 10m from the kick reception you can't be run onside.

It's just a matter of whether he was deemed an active or passive participant in the play.
