Even if he was out before the hit it's still a penalty you fools. You don't have carte blanche to whack someone in yhe head because theyve gone high.

I love how people say this when we are getting hammered in the penalty count
Souths are playing like thugs. High shot on Richards not on report, and not awarded a penalty try when he scores if not for the illegal tackle. Burgess not being binned for starting a fight because his brother was tackled.

Souths might be down on penalties, refs are still favoring them.

Tigers playing an exciting brand of footy. Lovely to watch especially as it at the expense of the Bunnies

Fair enough. Makes sense, but i could've sworn he was in when he was chopped.



He definitely got hit before he was out, way before. So if thats the official reason the video ref gave then he needs to be dropped because he was making up BS not to award the penalty try.

Doesn't matter as Tigers scored off the penalty, but still..

How was Blair not held? Lol.

Anyway Blair has actually been real good! But Taupau is incredible. So impressive.

x2 Was weak as piss. It was clear as day he was making up shite in order not to award the penalty TRY.

I have a lot of sympathy for Lowe in that situation, trying to dive and force out a player trying to score, bounced off the shoulder, but he did hit him in the head when he could have gone lower. But no report. Simona couldn't do a thing, on report.

I agree with what you say except, the "bounced off the shoulder" it was a hit with first contact to the head.

The lack of penalty try probably offset the farcical Simona try decision. So obvious it touched Brooks live, and obvious on the replay. Oh well don't let reality get in the way of a good lol@souffs.

Tedesco hasn't managed to get away yet but holy hell is he light on his feet. He has almost cut them up out of nowhere multiple times.

I wonder how you guys would react if Souths scored a try with what appeared to be a knock on into the opposition before it went out wide :sarcasm:
