How do u know they would have won? Parra still could have scored 2 tries

The momentum didn't change with that one play that's bull. The momentum swung when parra got to 12 points after tahu scored

manly just totally unravelled again just like last week and yes I agree it was a forward pass but u can't deny manly lost the momentum before that try

LOL, I'm sorry, but that's one of the lamest pass-offs I've ever heard.

Simple fact of the matter is that Manly were absolutely robbed .... had the correct call been made, Manly would have rightfully won the game, and the way they played in the second half would have been irrelevant.

But they didnt and the way the eels played in the first half is now irrelevant...

I bet the refs come out and say he passed it back but the players momentum made the ball go forward.... should just piss that rule off if its forward its forward...

Exactly the whole momentum of the game changed.


The whole momentum of the game changed in the 74th minute. I didn't think that was possible.

Manly copped the loose end of the stick the second half, bad luck to them. Bad calls like that are made like that all the time. They only time they're actually made a big deal of is when they come in the last 10 minutes. If such a decision happened in the 5th minute it wouldn't be copping so much flack.

momentum can change anytime, didnt know that beyond 70 minutes team were inept of playing better then their opponents.

Yeah - my mistake. Not really robbed per se. You still won the game legitimately.

It's just that the win is 'asterixed'.

Jarrod Hayne kicks the ball dead over the dead line ball on the full deliberately with 3 minutes left on the clock. Tutt Tutt Tutt not in the spirit of the game Jarrod

No - I guess we'll never really know. Since we knocked you out comprehensively the following year to reclaim the premiership we dont really care.

But dont let that get in the way of my original point. My point is you guys are cursed.

You won the GF and the WCC. Then you're world's got to sh*t in a big hurry. You lost Stewart (twice), Orford pissed off, you got knocked out in Finals Wk 1, now you've lost Stewart for a 3rd time. And to put the cream on top - you've held big leads late in the contest in the first two weeks that any other team would have held onto - only to lose both games.

Now, that's quite a list. I may as well add onto that your membership numbers suck the suckiest of any team in the comp.

You completely turned the point of the argument 180 degress, your just ranting now.

It has nothing to do with momentum.

It has to do with the fact that the play came in the 75th minute, and Manly were leading by 8.

The correct call is made, Manly get a scrum feed and get to work it down the field, kick it over the sideline, and Parramatta have 3 minutes to score 2 tries and they are 90m away from the Manly tryline.

The fact that the try was awarded meant that Parramatta got the ball back again from the kickoff, allowing them to charge down the field and maintain their momentum, which you are talking about.

So let's bring it back to that - had Keating's pass been correctly pulled up, there is definitely the possibility / probability that Parramatta heads would have gone down at having blown a good chance to score and get right back into the match with 5 minutes to go ...


We can't sit here and speculate on what definitively would have happened ... but we can sit here and say that Manly lost the match by one try, and one of Parramatta's tries in the last few minutes came as a result of a blatantly incorrect call by the referees.

Take from that what you will.

As a result of that try being called back, with 5 minutes to go, Parramatta would have had probably 3 less sets to score twice. The probability of them still scoring enough points to win the game are slim at best. Manly were robbed by a pass that went 6m forward.

In saying that, Manly capitulated in that contest. Both teams were bloody woeful.

Why I said momentum was to a post after u (I shouldve quoted that too)

fact is yeh parra won by 1 try and yeh 1 of theirs was a forward pass BUT manly can't get the 2 points back the game is over let's all get over it. It's not the teams fault it's the refs for not going to video ref

By the way how come ur whinging? Lol ur a dragons fan haha u should be happy ur teams up in 2nd lol not worrying about manly :)

I feel so bad for Manly.

To lose to the Tigers in a game they really should've won and probably deserved to win was enough, but then to get the game robbed from them by the refs was just appaling.

Not exactly the sharpest tool in the shed are you? The last time a forward pass was ruled on in the video box was probably around 2005.

They're playing the Tigers, it'll be Hayne fumbling a Benji chipkick about 12m forward, throwing a gridiron pass about 35m downfield to Burt, he'll get falconed and hit the ball into Cayless who for some reason isn't back in the defensive line, then Robson will trip over the ball, kick it about 5m dead then someone like Keating will dive on the ball and it'll be the greatest rugby league try of all time.
