OMG Alan Tongue got the ball down over the line and they didnt even go to the video
massive blunder by the ref that could cost canberra

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

Terrible kick Campese

 

[munge]

i cant believe it the ref is kidding. tongue was 100% over the line.

 

[Schiltzenberger]

It's got nothing to do with turning your back.

If you're coming across in cover and they step inside then they're behind you. It's not rocket surgery.

Yes it has, it's one of the first things you learn in u/7, never turn your back. Hayne did it 10m out as well, he was never going to stop him even if he did get a hold of him. In that situation you take the ball carrier 100% of the time. It was useless defending, most other fullbacks would've taken the ball carrier head on.

 

[Bazal]

Dugan was out on that play...but I'll pay it anyway, great kick and great work

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

No, he wasn't Bazal

 

[munge]

dont no what the commentators are going on about dugans foot was definetly in

 

[Pete Cash]

Turned into a pretty good kick in the end that one.

 

[Bazal]

Another great kick from Keating, and a fantastic chase from Horo

Edit-Picker is down, accidental boot to the head. Looked like it'd sting

 

[Glenn]

Rocket surgery? What kind of strange profession is that!

I get the feeling if the Eels could hold onto the ball, they'll win the game.

That would involve holding the ball, which is impossible for Parramatta atm.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Kicked in the head, poor bugger.

 

[ironhorse]

i swear half those parra chasers were in front of the kicker then ?

 

[Munky Funky]

dugan wasnt out there dunno how anyone can say he was

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

Picker has been absolute sh*te

 

[Pete Cash]

ohhh nasty one that.

 

[munge]

was that kick to the head deliberate?

 

[aussies1st]

TLL coming on for Picker, should mean he gets to play in the back row rather that prop like last week.

 

[Munky Funky]

reddy you f**king dog!!! another one! how long with this guy be allowed to go around kicking and elbowing people in the head willy nilly

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Yes it has, it's one of the first things you learn in u/7, never turn your back. Hayne did it 10m out as well, he was never going to stop him even if he did get a hold of him. In that situation you take the ball carrier 100% of the time. It was useless defending, most other fullbacks would've taken the ball carrier head on.

He didin't turn his back, he allowed enough room so the carrier couldn't draw and pass. The reason Thompson ended up behind him is because he stepped inside. That left Hayne to have to turn around to chase him.

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

Dugan so good
