[skeepe]

Idris was pretty clearly offside there.

 

[Jason Maher]

We've really taken our foot off in the second half. Not happy, and I would presume Bennett wouldn't be either.

 

[skeepe]

Not only was Idris offside, he knocked it forward into the Dragons player.

 

[ozjet1]

sensational match.

the only flaws in it so far are the Prior try, and the SGI strip - they should be in an all-red strip. too much white on both sides.

 

[Jason Maher]

No. Lockyer can tackle. Soward can't. How did that tackle on Barba go? Oh that's right. It wasn't a tackle. He dropped off again.

You've just cut your foot off with your own sword you dickhead. If one good tackle doesn't make him a good defender, then one poor tackle doesn't make him a bad one. But hey, if you repeat the same myth often enough...

 

[Willow]

Is it just me or do St George look a bit weaker when you niggle at them. I've seen it happen a couple of times.

Watch the game, don't let the commentators do your thinking for you.

The library is full of books about rugby league.

 

[kia ora storm]

Go Dogs...

 

[Jason Maher]

Go Canberra...

Oh hang on...

 

[Ulysseus]

so is it all square after the Idris catch as far as contentious try's go now?

I'm a big boy. I can do my own thinking. Your team is looking very beatable at the moment.

 

[umina panther]

the hype has got to boyd's head

 

[skeepe]

I wonder if the fact Idris was allowed to be offside and knock on and still get the Dogs a try means people will stop whinging about the Dragons getting a leg-up, given that it's now one bullshit try apiece.

My guess is no.

 

[Spanner in the works]

Soward just crumbled. Another attempt at a field goal. St George is struggling... What is going on here? Beatable.

 

[Danish]

What a pant shitting move by Soward.... kicking a field goal to get to 6 up from 40+ out??

Flashbacks to the Newtown Parra reserve grade grand final there

 

[TV Ted Ellery]

Most contentious of the year? Are you serious?

It's nowhere near being in the league of Thurston being allowed to knock on with impunity against the Raiders, or Jennings clearly knocking on against the Raiders, or Manly having a knock on ruled against them... there have been plenty of much more contentious decisions this year. Tonight's isn't even remotely in the ballpark.

Of course, Canberra would be the team on the receiving end of the most dubious calls.

Unlike the situation where the on-field refs overlooks a knock-on, this time the video ref had the opportunity to review the footage yet still came up with a decision at odds with what everybody in Australia sans Skeepe and a handful of one-eyed Dragons fans expected.

The ones I mentioned were all video ref decisions also you braindead numpty.

 

[adamkungl]

Come on Dogs. Totally worth losing the tip to see St Germ lose

 

[Vic Mackey]

Dragons penalty, right on cue

 

[Danish]

Is that dragons fans booing their side?? Sounds like it

 

[TV Ted Ellery]

10 metre penalty in the 67th minute. Not even the most boisterous Leichhardt crowd could procure that.
