Yeah Cowboys have probably been the better team, hopefully we can lift in the second half.
Cowboys will be running into the wind in the second half. Also, hopefully the refs even out the penalty count. :D

we where always going to get that 2nd try .You have to prove he delibratly knocked it to take it off.There is no way of knowing that so benifit of doubt is there.
Was pleased to get level considering how much ball they had.At one stage penalties 4 to 0.Kicking game is good tonight.

interesting decisions tonight ... both panthers tries dubious .. Jennings offside and inside the 10 when bowen spilled it ... gordon passed to himself.

at the other end a flat thurston pass is called forward from a mile away with charlie looking like scoring ...

cowboys should feel very ripped off at half time.

That last try to Gordon was a joke. Deadset what's the point of having the rule when the video refs continue to ignore it?

its not a knock on .. it didnt touch the ground or an opposition player ... therefore definately not a knock on ...

BUT

it was a self pass - tap over the top to yourself and like the stewart one a year or so back should have been a penalty to the cowboys

I was reading this rule:

From the ARL's laws of the game....

"KNOCK-ON means to knock the ball towards the opponents' dead ball line with hand or arm, while playing at the ball."

"REBOUND is an ACCIDENTAL STRIKE: when a ball strikes a player who makes no attempt to play at the ball."

"A player shall be penalised if he deliberately knocks on."

"If, after knocking-on accidentally, the player knocking-on regains or kicks the ball before it touches the ground, then play shall be allowed to proceed."

Has this rule change this year? :?

panthers should never have been in this game ... their first 3 tries should have been disallowed and the cows had a potential try pulled back for a flat pass ...

joke ..

ah well .. as a dragons fan I dont really give a sh*t
