2019 GF | PREMIERS - Roosters 14-8 Raiders @ ANZ

[T-Boon]

Everybody feels dudded by refs decisions but that’s what a sport gets when it is dominated by defense. The refs ARE the play makers/opportunity makers.
Do something about the way the game is played, defense is way too dominant now. There are heaps of solutions like going to 11 aside.

 

[Perth Red]

Well at least raiders won something, as long as they don’t change their mind before he gets off stage!

 

[Scaven]

It was a huge call mate. The reason refs aren’t just supposed to change their minds is to give the players the best chance at making a right play

Jack would have played differently had the ref correctly signalled last tackle. There is no way this can be talked down as anything but a shocking error

Yeah it was not good, but you can't say it cost you the game. I thought the Cronk sinbin was worse to be honest.

 

[Grapple]

Tell me why we have 2 refs and a bunker again?

 

[This Year?]

Great speech Soliola.

 

[Exsilium]

Who’s hanging out for the presser?!?

 

[lockyno1]

Wait up, I thought that call against the Storm in round 1 of the finals was karma for the terrible call only a few weeks earlier in a game between the same teams where a Storm player in touch knocked the ball back into the field of play and it was play on.

It’s 8-8all with 10 to go...as if Sezer doesn’t kick a field goal

 

[Diesel]

Jack deserves the CCM

 

[MilkShark]

What a legend

 

[Tweed Titan]

Even so
If he called it play on instead of 6 again the raiders wouldn’t have taken the tackle

Again I agree! Right call if they hadn’t signaled six to go but in the context of already saying six to go they should have stayed with the six to go.

 

[Babyface O'reilly]

They only copied what the Rorters were getting away with!

No complaints then?

 

[lockyno1]

Called it

Wighton in a Losing side

 

[YoHadrian]

NRL feeling guilty & giving the Raiders players all of the awards.

 

[Dodgy]

It's always an anti-climax when a player on the losing team wins the CC.

It happened to the Roosters again.

 

[smi962]

Yeah it was not good, but you can't say it cost you the game. I thought the Cronk sinbin was worse to be honest.

It was the correct call every day of the week.

 

[Pete Cash]

I can't remember having a 6 again overturned like that before?

Another example was when the touchie randomly put his flag up against the sharks and the ref let play continue after we assumed play had stopped.

In that case I could see an argument that we should make our tackles still but jack thought it was 6 to go so of course he was just going to take the tackle

 

[Lebbo73]

The bookies just got some money back with the CC decision and Soliola’s award,

 

[King hit]

Thought Cordner deserved it

 

[TheVelourFog]

haha yes

boooo you merkins

 

[blaza88z]

Classy Roosters fans in the crowd, didn't expect too much more
