2025 FW3 PF Fri - Melbourne 22-14 Cronulla @ AAMI

Surely that was a trip.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Storm should have taken the 2

 

[sensesmaybenumbed]

Those storm fans have no idea about the rules

To be fair, the number of stupid calls they get makes you understand why

 

[Artiste]

Howarth looks like a young lesbian in from the country ready to start her uni life in the big smoke

 

[chrisD]

Right, so head clashes are penalties again?

For Storm only.

 

[Wb1234]

Can’t believe the sharks are still in this

Their grit is awesome

 

[yobbo84]

Jeez...dunno what Butler is watching but the Sharks should be very thankful IMO. Absolutely no attempt to wrap and he defs got him with head and shoulder.

Literally the exact thing Wighton got 4 weeks for. Running out hard and clash of heads.

 

[Maximus]

that’s what seems to have been missed, in what way was he making a legit tackle?

Most of this thread would be screaming send off if it was the other way.

 

[mave]

back on shot shows the shoulder contacting head

Sweet, why isn't he sitting down then?

Either way, the inconsistency is astounding.

 

[The Man Shake]

To be fair, the number of stupid calls they get makes you understand why

That and the fact quite a few of them would yell out BAAAWWWLLLLL during tackles.

 

[Apey]

that’s what seems to have been missed, in what way was he making a legit tackle?

Yeah I didnt see any shoulder but this is why I thought it was a penalty. Trying to write it off as an "accidental headclash" is taking the piss lol.

 

[skeepe]

Howarth has had an absolute shocker

 

[Vic Mackey]

Been a good game, but don’t think the premiers are coming from tonight

 

[Wb1234]

What a save

Great line he ran though unlucky

 

[Fangs]

Absolutely brilliant tackle there.

 

[sensesmaybenumbed]

Storm are so f**king bad for the game. A massive net negative.

The wrestling should be penalised pit of the game

 

[Diesel]

Held up

 

[MRN]

How TF did he not score

 

[chrisD]

Around the head.

 

[Maximus]

Sweet, why isn't he sitting down then?

Either way, the inconsistency is astounding.

The rules don't apply because it's the finals.
