Round 5 Discussion

[Dexter]

How are Melb not giving 6 again sets.
There putting the bloke on the ground seconds after held is called, grabbing ankles and the ref is letting so much go

 

[Waynesaurus]

What a crock! A bullcrap head high penalty and then a forward pass let go for the Storm.

 

[Big Pete]

That Edrick Lee penalty was ridiculous, penalised for tackling too hard and after staying on the ground for an eternity Vunivalu doesn't go for an HIA.

The ref even had time to send up to the video ref and still came up with the bullcrap call.

 

[Dexter]

Ridiculous call from the touchie. Hands Melbourne the game and stops a great finish

 

[Dash]

I hope Finucane is ashamed of himself.

 

[Browny]

And now the decoy runner loses the collision but gets a penalty. Who the **** knows anymore

 

[Organix]

Melbourne getting some convenient calls. I don't think the refs know what they're doing anymore.

 

[Kimlo]

That Funicane penalty is a fucking disgrace.

 

[Organix]

The Vunivalu high tackle is also a disgrace

I wish that was the case. More like they have a “directive” from the top.

I totally agree, but I hate feeling like putting on my tin foil hat every time I watch the NRL

 

[Sproj]

Absolutely disgraceful end to the game once again, anyone surprised?

Knights are going to be pumped next week, I’m scared.

 

[Big Pete]

Well they may have received some calls, but Melbourne were the better side for the majority of the contest. There was a set at 18-12, where Newcastle had Melbourne inside their own 10m. A lot of other teams would have been swallowed up that set but Melbourne orchestrated an amazing set.

Olam made a big run on play two and Brandon Smith followed it up with a huge run which allowed them to make it to halfway. Then Cameron Smith forced Hymel Hunt to bring it out from their in-goal and the Storm from there took over.

 

[Dexter]

Brandon Smith playing the 8 mtr rule. Right next to the ref .....nothing.

 

[Broncos Maestro]

It’s not a tin foil hat anymore - I hear the WWE are getting storyline tips from the NRL!!

 

[Galah]

If Thursday didn’t confirm it, tonight sure did!

 

[Organix]

Imagine having all that technology, 3 sets of eyes on the field, having your entire profession based on refereeing where you train daily and STILL fucking it up.
