To all those dimwit storm fans, the siren sounded and the player was on his back. It's called fulltime.
No matter, Melbourne are past it. An ageing side. A cheating side. They have zero chance this year, just like in 2013

Siren wen't off before he played the ball by that. But as others have said, It was a 50/50. Melb. got it, onto next week.

And the ref cannot blow the whistle before the siren finishes, which by the time it had finished it had made it into the dummy half's hands and nearly been passed.
You need to allow for human reaction time and for the ability of people on the field to be able to hear the whistle over the siren, thus they wait until it finishes sounding. Kinda like basketball where the play is live until the siren ends, rush a shot during the siren and it is still given.

All they needed to do is catch the ball St George would have won the game, if you have to blame anyone for the loss blame your team.

You have some serious but hurt

But i do agree with you about where the Storm are at

Might even struggle to make the 8 unless we find some consistency.

Come on dude. Someone posted the replay. Watch it, and you'll clearly hear the siren as the ball was being played.

From the rule book:

If time expires in either half when the ball is out of play or a player in possession has been tackled and the ball has not been played the Referee shall immediately blow his whistle to terminate play.

Looks simultaneous. Very unlucky. I'm spewing more about the try that was allowed with a clear angle showing the ball not being grounded !
Anyway, life goes on !

Back from the game. Can't believe Gonzo and other numbnuts are arguing about the Fox clock. Irrelevant!
However, as a Storm supporter, I reckon I heard the siren a split second before the PTB - at the ground I was amazed it wasn't blown as full time. Have just seen the footage on tv - reckon it is clearly audible just before the winger puts the ball on the ground to play the ball - so think Dragons got robbed on that one.
BUT - Cronk's pass to Proctor that was claled forward and a try disallowed looked good at the game - and thought we were unlucky with the Dugan offside try too.
Having said all that, thought Dragons worked hard and were the better team. Widdop looks more of a leader than he did with us. Extremely unlucky loss.
Billy is running on old legs (trademark Anthony Mundine), Hoffy's hands are horrible and I think we'll lose as many as we win this year.

AS distinct from the Eagles, where there's one good player f**king the lot of them. Can you tell us how fat DCE's wallet will get once he's knifed the Stewart lads?

Back on tonight's game - Chambers should have won MOTM ahead of Cronk. Never seen him defend with so much sting, and he was a gun in attack as well.

Yeah Bellamy can't coach

Wow they are very successful for a team with one good player

Yeah the refs cheated for Melbourne last week
