How'd SBW play?

 

[Timmah]

Lifted the team a notch as usual. Was great to see him out there but he didn't appear to be 100%

The forward pass call would have been fair... had the role of sideline officials been consistent at all in the last 10 years.

The fact a linesman had the gall to call a line-ball-at-best "forward" given their total lack of input in matches over the last 10 years or so is appalling at best.

That said, win some lose some... they gave it a go tonight and came within a dud call of beating one of the competition heavyweights. '08 isn't lost but I'm not expecting anything more than a bottom of the eight finish at best.

a line ball at best????? You are dreaming. watch the replay again.............

 

[Timmah]

It was a line ball. Passed 9 metres out, collected 9 metres out.

 

[beave]

i havent got the match on my hard drive, but from memory he passed it just on the 10m, Sullivan got the ball about 9m out.................

9 to 9 for mine but maybe I'm blind

 

[DeeGan]

We got lucky? We did enough to pick up the two points.

It was line ball at best. Timmah is one of the minority talking sense from Canterbury. I find it hillarious that each and every week we have fans complaining as if they are the only supporters who deal with these line ball calls. Get the fugg over it.

 

[Timmah]

Oh I see plenty of teams get robbed, it just sucks harder when it's your own and at such a crucial stage.

I hear ya brother, I hear ya ;-)

The Titans copped several bad calls too, notably not getting another set when Ryan played at that Prince kick. The Titans would have had another set on the Dogs line and a try then would have killed off the game. But no one whinges about that because it didn't happen in the last minute.

Well - I was going to mention that :lol:

Some take a loss well, some don't. This is the online rugby league community.

 

[runatme]

as usual the gold coast scum get all the calls there way bulldogs were very hard done by

 

[Dogaholic]

Robbed. No doubt about it.

 

[DeeGan]

Robbed. No doubt about it.

You should write to David Gallop I reckon ...

 

[Eelectrica]

Regardless of all that crap I'm immensely proud of the 'Dogs for such a brilliant result. Losing to such a well-drilled team by only four points is a great result after that woeful display v Penrith. Just hoping we get more boys back on deck as the weeks go by. MNF v Cronulla @ home should be interesting.

Dogs did very to fight back and almost steal the win. At 16-0 up I thought the Titans were going to put 40+ on. In true Bulldog spirit they knuckled down and kept fighting.

Wish I could say the same about Parra.

I'm just glad they showed some, it's been a while since we've seen it.

 

[beave]

just watched the big pond, and I stand by my first statment. It was a forward pass, no doubt about it. I think your love for your team Timmah has blinded on that incident, no proplems with that ref call whatsoever.

 

[innsaneink]

Ink - you are hardly a nuetral. Who are you trying to fool? You are about as neutral when it comes to the Dogs as that knob with Carl Webb as his avatar.

I saw it once and one replay. Looked line ball IMO. I'll end up watching it then. Might find that I was mistaken, might strengthen my opinion. meh

Either way, was actually an enjoyable game, despite all the errors we made. Came away from the game quite pleased. Robinson is a merkin, that cannot be helped.

Reckon we should chuck hickey in the backs

I was actually quietly cheering for your blokes.
Ive nothing to gain by seeing the Titans win, I dont like them.
take it or leave it

Might find that I was mistaken, might strengthen my opinion.

Good to keep an open mind.

 

[Apey]

Lol I can't believe anyone thinks it wasn't forward.

The only problem I see with it is that others that are just as forward don't get pulled up. Eels did an NFL one near the start of their game that went unnoticed, but later in the game one that was forward, but to a lesser extent, got pulled up :lol:

 

[McLovin]

My first thought on the pass was forward. You could clearly hear the ref yell out forward. No problems with it imo...
