****, that was good from Moses

Bankwest is the second best RL stadium in Australia. Such a great atmosphere.

 

[Aldo]

Even better from the Warriors

I hate the change to the 1-on-1 strip rule ...

you can now have 2 or more blokes stop the ball carrier in their tracks then drop off when a 3rd guy is in position to attempt the strip ...

lets not try to turn this sport into yawnion

I hate it to. Two players can pin the ball carriers arms to allow a third to come and get a good grip of the ball and as soon as he has it secured all he does is nod and the others let go.

This is not what a one-on-one strip was meant to be. It should be one player on one player on initial, ongoing and final contact.

 

[Super Freak]

Come on, that's a solid tackle.

 

[Jedhead]

I want the Eels to win here, but 9 -1 tackle count is so Sydney bias.

The change is excellent. It's a real common sense change.

Previously if a second player came in and just laid a hand on the ball carrier and then drops off and the ball was stripped, it was a penalty. That's just bloody stupid.

If every other player in the tackle drops off then they are no longer a part of the tackle. Common sense.

Tackle count? Thought you said you quit drinking?

 

[jarro65]

[Jedhead]

Frikkin strong tea this!

 

[Dexter]

Yep Warriors have been sorted by these refs. No penalties after min 5 and not 1 fifty fifty. Parra didnt deserve that win.
Presser should be good

 

[Super Freak]

Lol Warriors finally get a penalty when the game is practically over.

Pretty bad refs performance, although they got that RTS call right.

 

[tommy]

Warriors can feel hard done by concerning officiating.

LMAO click go the shears for a game against NZ Cheeky *****.

 

[jd87]

Even though warriors loss probably helps us that refs performance was a disgrace. Warriors were not aloud to win. Its that type of crap that turns fans away from the game

I disagree, I thought they were very loud especially when they quite correctly yelled at the ref about the penalty count. Parra were allowed to get away with murder. Good result though!

I like it too. If a team can be good enough to do what was mentioned on the last page, good on them. More contests the better.

More (Fair) contests are a great idea but ganging up on a player with the intention of stripping the ball does not sit well with me.
