    Benefit of the doubt.

    Ok.. I dont think it was a try but didnt want to get into that debate...more just the fact that I could see why it was BOTD in a way..and many more that are similar (did he touch it, did it go forward etc etc)...seriously why bother.. If thats all my team has to offer , then they dont deserve a...

    Benefit of the doubt.

    Ok..BOTD again. Seriously the rabbitohs try today off a bomb (what else is new, most BOTD are off bombs)...correct ruling BOTD...but does that type of try really need to be given. Surely we want a little more perfection in our execution than that type of try where it was a mess and possibly a...

    Why is Souths the most hated team on here?

    Im not sure if anyone hated any teams with as much passion prior to internet forums?? Sure, there is rivalry and getting one up on your mates, but I cant recall hating teasm prior to the net although super league was a precursor.... I hated teams that defected and ruined our game (or set it back...

    Flaw With New Finals System

    Until all teams play each other twice and no club games are affected by origin then no team particularly deserves a special reward for coming first as opposed to say 4th... The comp is so close that the diff between 1st and 8th could potentially be those games lost during origin period without...

    Crowd Watch 2012 Mk II

    I guess a few weeks back this (Titans v Chooks)may have been looking like a possible good battle for the last spots in the 8..( I did say may have!!!) I guess they wer ehoping both team hit some form???? They have been crap all year althought the Titans have shown somehtign. Imagine the...

    Benefit of the doubt.

    Fair call...if the defence is mediocre and is caught out and its a clear try then fair enough.. but often you see the dummy half dive over when the defence is set and its a low percentage play and doesnt deserve a BOD call... but to be honest..this is not a regular issue like the bomb vid ref...

    Benefit of the doubt.

    Huge bug of mine on this rule. (see my other posts) The majority of BOD of vid ref calls are made on tries off kicks (especially bombs) or simple dummy half dive overs or side line dive overs. Ide love to get the actual breakdown of vid ref calls. I think most people here would say that a...

    New "held" rule?

    I cant argue with this...my only issue is when the player bouncesd and reaches out desipte his ball carrying arm hitting the deck. Having said this ..I want benefit of the doubt to go to the defence in all cases except potential forward passes on the fly.(because this promotes good attack)...

    New "held" rule?

    I reckon all your points are quite valid. I would consider taking it a step further however and just get rid of the double movement rule... why is it needed? If youre close enough and able to reach out then who cares...its often a 50/50 call. Unless its quite obvious that the player was...

    Crowd Watch 2012

    Playing at ground with limited seats forces people to committ early.. There were games in recent years in pouring rain at grounds like parra stadium etc with large crowds because people had to committ early or else risk missing out. If these games were at anz, then you just have to wait until...

    He wrestle is not the problem!!

    I've said it for ages.. The problem is not the wrestle or slow pllay the balls, I love it because it stops dummy half running. The problem is the coaching!! The best footy is played off the back of off loads... Today's game was a classic because of the 2nd phase play. Slow play the balls force...
