2016 GF | PREMIERS - Sharks 14-12 Storm @ ANZ

[Card Shark]

I thought they made decisions by scissors, paper, rock.

 

[JamesRustle]

Is there normally 3 in the bunker? seems a bit excessive, probably get 3 different opinions for most calls.

Sutton is the fluffer, the other two make the shit calls.

 

[THE CHAMP]

There are those that will take the safe bet option and go for the Storm.

There are those who are insecure within themselves and they always go for the favourites in the Storm.

And there are those who throw caution to the wind who don't care of their reputation,and who love the underdog status...and they are behind the Sharkies.

Fortune favors the brave in going for Cronulla,and the other chickens can suit themselves.

Go Sharkies!

And there are those that live under a bridge because they sold their car for a bag of tobacco and some tally hos. They support the panthers.

So Younis is rewarded for his 'forward' pass call last weekend?
Awesome.

Archer stated it was correct so why not?

 

[no name]

Archer stated it was correct so why not?

He didn't state it was correct.
He said something along the lines of 'I can see why he came up with that decision'.
It was clearly a wrong decision.

Interviewer: Was that the correct decision.
Archer: Yeah.

 

[no name]

Interviewer: Was that the correct decision.
Archer: Yeah.

LOL, nice context.

Was that the correct decision?

Archer: 'Yeah, there's obviously been a fair bit of debate about this.....'

Even if he does think it is the right decision, he thinks they got the Maloney one right!

 

[myrrh ken]

Yeah Frog you quoted too accurately.

You need to paraphrase like No Name did first.

 

[TheFrog]

I think what Archer was saying was that given the angle Austin was running, and the position the ball was thrown and the position where it was caught, it was reasonable for the touch judge to make the decision he did. And yes, I was being a bit clever in my previous post.

What must be remembered is that Archer is in the same position as the bunker, ie he is unable to accurately rule on forward passes from watching a video and is thus unable to definitively state the call was correct or otherwise. All of us in this thread and everywhere else, including Archer, were in a worse position to make the call than the blokes on the field. My feeling remains that it looks forward, but its nothing but fish and chip wrappers now.

 

[ed-grimley]

Archer stated it was correct so why not?

Archer should go into politics.

And there are those that have uncles that are also their fathers.

Sharks by enough. Harold is treading water about a kilometer off Bundeena waiting to make an appearance on Sunday.

Holy shit.
Your uncle is your father?!?

He is working at Cronulla Leagues Club as a cellarman.

His job on Sunday will be to keep the piss flowing all night after the Sharkies win...then he will make an appearance on stage at 5:00 a.m. in the morning when every fooker is rat-arsed with a pint in his hand.

 

[Clifferd]

GF week is by far the longest week of the year

Fookin hurry up

 

[Miller was a legend]

GF week is by far the longest week of the year

Fookin hurry up

Couldn't agree more

 

[coolumsharkie]

Off season is the longest week, seems like it goes for months.

 

[moffla]

No longer excited. Now just shitting myself.

 

[2010Dragons]

Anybody that doesn't hope the sharks win it is a merkin or a storm fan.

I would rather see a total power lost and black-out and the game gets cancelled.
I just can't cheer for either of these cheating teams.
Go the Cutters in the main game at NRL State Championship, 3:40pm

 

[coolumsharkie]

Yeah go Illawarra

Harold is ficked. Fairytales are for kids.
