Archers magic eyes.

First he sees a ball grounded when it is obvious that it wasn't.

Then he sees Luke Burt offside - but Archer never looked at him, never even turned his head.


Saints are all over this game - but Archer is having a shocker at the same time.

I don't even think Archer's been that bad. First Morris try was line-ball, although i have no problem with it being given. Parra have just been outplayed thus far.

You don't think Burt was onside do you? I mean he was clearly offside. Archer probably got the call from the other ref or a touchie. Regardless of whether he turned his head, he got that call right.

Is it wrong, as a dog fan, for me to get excited by the way the Dragons are playing? If so then i apologise in advance

Thanks Billy, there is officially no reason to tackle anyone anymore...because obviously even a bloke stopped on the ground with a tackler on him isn't held and can still promote the footy

Some very liberal use of the held rule by harrimerkin...

Being dead still on your side with 2 men on you isn't held?

If I didn't hate AFL so much I'd have switched this game off 20 minutes in

I think if someone a bit more athletic had done the same thing there wouldn't have been any doubt it was a try.

I didn't have any real drama with it tbh. Arm carrying the ball didn't touch the ground.

His momentum was stopped, on the ground, with a tackler hanging on to him. That's the very definition of held.
