A bit too much chat maybe...

Yeah probably.

Nothing wrong with healthy debate!

48-22.

That was 2003. We are now in 2008.

He was referring to what the score would have been with all conversions successful.

As for the game itself... words escape me. How can we be so WOEFUL in the first half and play so much better in the second? We won the second half 18-10 FFS

De Las Heras ought to be shot. No problem with the result but...

- obstruction call around the 10th-15th minute against us when the "obstructed" player was about 5 metres away from the ball...
- followed a minute later by a Warriors try where the player may have run a deliberate obstruction and he didn't even bother checking with Russell Replay...

The Bulldogs member areas are usually admittedly quiet, but the volume was up like I've never heard before on that one - it's plain to see we're dead-set sick of ridiculously inconsistent and poor refereeing.

There was nothing wrong with the Solomona try where Tate was the dummy runner. I am suprised he didn't go upstairs for it though.

Yeh True, the members are usually quiet but everyone on the tunnel side was up after that one and was absolutely giving it to the ref, i sit in the kennel and i have never seen everyone get up and go off like that (maybe it was more frustration with our side then anything else)

RE: your sig byrd... I'll be filthy if he gets that record at the Suncorp game :x

Exactly my point - irrespective of whether or not it actually was, it appeared to most to at least have potential for obstruction and for him to awarded it without checking, especially after having made such a dubious call a little earlier while we were on the attack... that was ordinary, and the members were baying for his blood.

 

[African Monkey]

Is he playing on next year ?

I was positively shocked he didn't go upstairs.

First time I saw it, it looked dodgy.

 

[Timmah]

Deadset haven't seen a fanbase go absolutely mental like that for a long long time. We felt cheated... it's hard to cop that sh*t on top of your team playing so badly.

 

[God-King Dean]

' Bro corner ' looked hilarious.

 

[Timmah]

Actually made it look like an Origin game or Grand Final, they milked the camera angle on fox I noticed.
