I'll bet my house that we don't see anyone penalised for patting someone on the head again this year.

There's more chance that Kristen Scott is going to call me tonight and invite me up to her hotel.

He pulled his head gear! No need for it.

Later in the game Hayward got penalised cause Munster charged at him after playing the ball.

Professional win. Did what we needed, great game and now we can rest some players leading into finals.

Better performance from the Dogs but I feel that they’re a year off from properly competing.

If regripping the ball is the measure, it should apply in all scenarios. No looking for separation. A try should only be awarded when the ball is gripped and grounded

Yeah that's comparing salty apples to salty oranges, salty bananas, and salty pineapples my salty friend.

Crichton dropped it. He has to regather it. It's quite simple tbh

The hilarious bit was Crichton asking for a review of the review by the bunker that didn't award the try in the first place. Reminded me of the scene in "A Few Good Men" when Demi Moore strenuously objected to the judge who had dismissed her first objection and basically got told to sit down.

may be unfairly shoudered off the ball (or tackled) was mention as Crichton went for the ball?

Doggies are the weakest of the contenders in 2025 imo. Storm, Panthers, Raiders, Roosters all a better shout. Too much plod in the key positions. Should be a top 4 mainstay over the next few years on their defence alone and a premiership beckons if their spine improves.

So Seve's not allowed to try and get to the ball now?
It was a fair contest, and the re-gripping issue (which poor brain-addled Joey couldn't comprehend) doesn't enter into it because it touched Marion after Crichton knocked on.

Had a close look at the replay. Nice tactics from Bellamy. Bulldogs have multiple issues in attack but their effort in defence was great. That last ditch tackle by Hayes on Anderson was superman stuff , only to be trumped a few seconds later by that Pezet cross kick to Coates. Kiraz was massive as was Katoa and Meaney.

Don’t understand why Crichton seems to want to grub it up. Pushed Paps at the 10 min 40 sec mark in the 1st half when Paps had already taken the ball dead by 3 metres and sent him sprawling (and straight away raised his arms as though nothing happened).

Paps later scored a try by hitting the space between him and Galvin to go up 12 nil.Then with 13min15sec left in the first half he looked like he was trying to open a screw top drink when he attacked Paps’ head on the hit up after the kick off return. Fox commentary ignored it when it happened instead crossing to a shot of Galvin’s hand strapping. No charge laid for the work on Paps’ head .Should buy a lottery ticket.
