'13 | ALL STARS, Feb 9 | Indigenous 32-6 NRL | Suncorp

[I Bleed Maroon]

Theres the first shoulder charge penalty. Beautiful shot completely ruined. This is gonna be a long season.

 

[Diesel]

Give it a few rounds and the shoulder charge will be back

 

[Meth]

League is going down hill. Shots like that attracted me to the game

 

[some11]

We've already seen two this game alone, when are they going to realise it's not going away?

 

[user_nat]

How many times this game have the NRL All Stars gotten to their kick? Like twice?

 

[macnaz]

1 penalised 1not... game.losing rule

 

[Meth]

Was that the ref shouting out 'easy easy' when Marshall was about to be tackled?

 

[northwest9]

Hahaha highlights reel is all shoulder charges....

 

[macnaz]

Why was one shoulder charge penalised and the other not.. This rule is going.to be so stupid. Refs are going to stuff up every week.

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Well Nein showing the NRL what they think of it. Both charges featured in the highlight reel.

 

[Saint69]

Barba looked slightly offside.

He was offside an not surprising they are not interested in checking.

 

[some11]

Just added a poll to the NRL section, I don't think the rule will last.

 

[nöyd]

poor greg bird cops an accidental knee to the cheek

he should be thankful it wasnt a schooner glass

 

[tumbidragon]

Irony is, Inglis didn't get penalised for his shoulder charge a few minutes ago... f**k the ban on the shoulder charge!!!! Be gentle, I'm pissed:lol:

Ben Barba is such a pleasure to watch. JT is looking great too, Inglis too. The NSW Blues have it all to do in 2013. Loving this game and my money is looking good on the Indigenous All Stars side.

 

[@MarTiger]

The crowd is looking ok. Keen to know the official number.

 

[Joker's Wild]

Who else would score like that..

That was also some classic Uate.

Pffft please tell me how Uate could have ever gotten to that ball

No one cares what you wrote on twitter

 

[northwest9]

He was offside an not surprising they are not interested in checking.

It's only because its a pointless exhibition match.

Any proper game and they'd go upstairs

 

[tumbidragon]

Yep Thurston is looking stupidly ominous. Barba, just magic as usual. Like the look of James and J- Moz has impressed with little opportunity. Thank Brian the footy is here!!
