That try will really settle Saints down.

 

[skeepe]

Good try. Makes it easier when the fullback is nowhere nearby.

 

[Danish]

If Gasnier touched that (which I believe he did) it is literally IMPOSSIBLE that it travelled backwards.

The ball touched the inside of his palm, which was facing the tryline, and he was running forward. He overran the ball, sure, but momentum doesnt come into it when you are just batting at the ball.

Only saviour is if he is claiming that Gasnier didn't touch it.

I think there was no way the ref could have said one way or the other who did touch the ball. So the try going to Saints was the right thing.

If that's a penalty, Gasnier should be in the bin

 

[skeepe]

Bullshit penalty.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

That's why teams kick to the wings.

 

[Danish]

How is that not 10 in the bin??

Play the ball infringement after a 70m break and no sin bin....

Meanwhile Robson ignores a wide open Hayne on the inside for no apparent reason

 

[Pete Cash]

Dragons look well soft defensively. They aren't marking in on their player.

Much like all 3 of the QLD tries last wednesday?

 

[Meth]

Rare mistake from Nightingale

 

[God-King Dean]

lol, looks like whoever does the better bombs are gonna win tonight.

 

[Pete Cash]

Nice kick by Hayne but Nightingale made a meal of it.

 

[God-King Dean]

Gonna be very curious to see how Saints handle this. Just got back on track & then it goes back out to 8.

 

[Anon]

3 penalties 14 points

 

[Jason Maher]

Did well to shut down the break, but all undone by Nightingale (unusually).

 

[Tweek]

That was such a bullshit penalty he was extremely quick to get off.

 

[Danish]

IMO Soward contributed to the error by crowding him with his stupid block play.


He basically put pressure on Nightingale to climb over him for the take instead of catching it clean

 

[Efresh]

Fien. Finally.
