#penaltyBroncos was a fun one when we were losing every penalty count. You guys whinged your way to an NRL sponsored fairytale premiership. Congratulations
Those moments that make you shake

This is it isn’t it - the worst decision ever?
Slater, coaches react to drop-kick try
Melbourne Storm fullback Billy Slater's first try of the night has caused controversy, with the fullback drop-kicking the ball before going onto score. Hear from Slater, his coach Craig Bellamy and captain Cam Smith, and Brisbane Broncos coach Wayne Bennett on the try.www.nrl.com
Video ref decision, completely different interpretation to whatever has happened before, not done in the heat of the moment? I can’t think of a single excuse as to how they could have gotten this wrong…

The worst part for me was all the nonsense after of media etc finding a way to make out it was legal.

Only making valid complaints about how the NRL is run and reffed these days buddy. Only disputed by 2 (three now) people who are wildly disliked on this forum and never disputed well.

Haha yeah right. You were whinging last night about referees mate which at the time when you had been gifted a forward pass try and a horrible ass pass by duffy that alphabet was taking to the house. You are a chronic whinger.
Now I am whinging about you being a whinger making me therefore a whinger.

Wasn't I whinging about our prop being KO'd and how it's been a sin bin all year, until now? I mean, you could attempt to dispute it but I'm not sure you have it in you.

Are you telling me you think that tackle was a sin bin? Be for real. Shoe on the other foot you would be saying there wasnt much in it because there wasnt. It was slightly worse than the Bullshit Mozer got done for. Standing upright and just ran into him.
Its unfortunate he got a head knock but Im sorry it wasnt that bad.
Edit. I just watched it again. That was lucky to be a penalty.

I don't have to like it, but the fact is it that a shoulder to the head without bending to avoid head contact has been a sin bin all season.

No it hasnt. Especially not lately. There was low force at best. Go watch the tackle on NRL physio on twitter. He basically caught him as he tackled him. I would be worried how he got knocked out in that tackle as a broncos fan. Hope it is not a thing to come for him because he is a weapon.

I mean, there is a very long list of dubious one-offs that the Storm have benefited from when playing the Broncos. But that one was definitely right up there. Curiously, I don't believe there were any tries awarded with that interpretation before Slater's was, and I'm almost certain there hasn't been one since.

This game always lived with me.
Brisbane led 28-14, were motoring down field when they get pinged for a phantom forward pass.
Still led 28-26, Storm throw the ball into touch but get the penalty after Webb punches one of their players. Replays show it was a reaction and he copped an elbow to the head.
Touchey said it was ok because Webb changed his line.
Could never stand Archer.
