Jesus Christ.

We introduce video referees in different sports to, and I quote, "omit the howler."

And yet we have this stupid situation in rugby league where the video ref isn't allowed to rule on it.

That's a joke.

 

[Plugger35]

The refs ignoring forward passes now.

Game over, if Brisbane can get that sort of favouritism in the GF they might be a chance of knocking off Penrith in the GF.

 

[Andronicus]

Go and swing warriors.

Knock some campaigners out.

 

[Aucklander]

Broke our hearts I reckon.

 

[eddiesmith]

You can’t seriously expect them to call forward passes by the Donkeys? Have you never seen a Brisbane game at Suncorp before?

 

[Plugger35]

Now a try overruled for the Warriors.

They may as well pack up now and go back home to NZ.

They are no show here with this one way pro Brisbane reffing.

 

[Andronicus]

Ref has been trash both ways.

I hope you are choking on these words.

 

[Andronicus]

Sutton needs to go away and have a very painful off-season.

 

[Aucklander]

So dumb.

Do you know the rules?

 

[Paul Kersey]

Luai or Walsh next week. Sickening.

 

[Andronicus]

Do you know the rules?

Forward pass rules?

 

[Santana]

Would have been an all time run until that little kick

 

[Plugger35]

Do you know the rules?

I don't know them that well, I don't think the NRL refs do either though so maybe I could get a gig as an NRL ref or in the bunker.

The call for the no try was right. The forward pass miss has ended the game.

 

[damicky]

Forward pass rules?

I was responding to someone saying that there was a “try overruled for the Warriors”

Nothing to do with the embarrassing no-call on the forward passes

Miss them both ways or call them both ways.

That *s s**t up.

 

[Plugger35]

I'm more of a rugby union man, I understand the rules in that game more than rugby league and even they can be hard to understand too.

I don't think the video replay referee decisions have done either game any favours with tries being cancelled out due to minor technicalities.

Just let the game flow, the bad decisions usually get evened out in the end.

 

[Aucklander]

Such a shame. We didn't deserve this.

I must've missed your posts decrying the lack of rules knowledge after the aforementioned no call on the forward pass.

Or did you only question the rules knowledge on the following call?

 

[Plugger35]

Two pretty poor one sided prelims, hopefully the GF is a better closer contest.

Not sure who I will barrack for in that one, I don't like either Penrith or Brisbane that much.

A draw where neither team wins would be the ideal result but that can't happen unfortunately.

Reece Walsh loves the camera. Watches himself on the big screen, has his elongated special move before the conversion, has to get his head in the shot when Johnson is getting interviewed, etc

Will he spend more time training or in the beauty salon leading into the gf?

He was trash both ways made zero difference, two top sides were always lengths ahead of the rest all year.

Game was over way before that, lets be real the Warriors had zilch in attack when all you have is a kick and hope in the air, it doesn't work against the top sides. Warriors have had a good year, and RTS adds something to their attack next year.
