Tigers V Cowboys *spoilers*

[Aeetee]

Anyone else watching?

How is Travis Burns still on the field, on high shot and a tackle where Chris Lawrence went past horizontal and nearly landed on his head.

 

[ronnyd]

Yeh i agree, if wombat cuthbertson got sent off last week Burns should be gone.

Cowboys are just awful tho, I'd hate to see them down another player.

 

[Aeetee]

22-0 tigers

30 mins gone... wheel out the fat one...

 

[Fozz]

That first report was rubbish I reckon. Didn't seem to be high at all.

 

[Fozz]

wheel out the fat one...

Webb is already out there. [icon_evillaugh

Okay, he's not fat...he's "burly".

 

[Russo]

Webb looks like he ate Piggy Riddell during the week, he's deadset put on 20kg since SOO1

webb played well though. absolutely nothing in travis burns high shot, but i feared he was gonna be given his marching orders for a while there. nothing in the lifting tackle either, it just looked bad because the second he started lifting lawrence just went straight for the ground with his arms and torso.

the cowboys were horrible, but were still in the match for most of it, which was a good effort considering theyre missing their best 4 players.

Looked pretty ordinary to me. He will probably get a fair few weeks for those two charges. No worries for the Cowboys though, he is complete dross.

For those who saw this game...
The Tigers conceded a penalty for obstruction while in the act of scoring a try out wide, and the crowd clearly hated the call. Tallis thought it was a try, but nobody else seemed to notice that the player never actually got the ball down over the tryline. Did anyone else see that? Bizarre.

 

[Fozz]

Yeah, I was wondering why it was a penalty when he didn't seem to get the ball down.

 

[Coxy]

Yeah, I was wondering why it was a penalty when he didn't seem to get the ball down.

Although I haven't seen the incident, I would guess it's because the obstruction is the first infringement and hence is penalised. The lost ball would've come after the obstruction, hence the penalty rather than 20 metre restart or whatever.

Some good tries scored by the tigers last night. As for the cowboys, i think its time to start getting ready for next season.

yeah i was just praying that theyd actually look at the put-down before making a ruling! he did NOT get that ball down, no way, it was a pearler of a tackle.

Yeh even on the roast this morning they were having a massive whinge about how there was no obstruction and the tigers were robbed.. but he never got close to grounding it.

Yeah, and Mark Geyer said "I don't think he grounded it" and they looked at him like he was an idiot and didn't look at the replay again.
