They score a try as the result of getting a quick play the ball because it wasn't played properly! That's why there is a rule to play the ball, it's not optional. Every second tackle the warriors aren't using their foot.

I hate first half field goals. Last time Johnson took one to go up 13-6 at halftime we ended up losing 30-13.

Don't think we've ever won after taking a first half field goal.

Still 13-6 after a poor attacking first 25-30 minutes. I'll take it.

Lowrie is lucky he doesn't get pinged more often.

It was always cringe time whenever he played for us and started pushing down heads and pulling legs.

There are 50 dodgy play the balls every game. It's rare the refs actually spot one.

I know and it's ridiculous, how hard is it to play the ball properly, it's a fundamental of rugby league and the refs have neglected it and allowed players to get away with it so much that they just accept it, same with playing the ball on the mark and not a few steps forward.

So because one game in the past the Warriors derped after a first half field goal, they should never take another one? It was a good kick and a smart play. 30 seconds left, nothing on, may as well take the 1 point. Get it when he pressure is off.

You should know about stepping off the mark. The Broncos are masters at it. Especially Justin Hodges.
