i) Morris' effort was a try to me. Had downward pressure and enough control on it IMO. We have all seen way worse given
ii) It looked to me like Morgan was more than just going for the tackle. He played at the ball and managed to knock it out. I'm all for more emphasis being on the carrier of the ball to have more control over it, so I don't agree with the interpretation. However, the precedent has been set. Given previous situations, that was always a strip. As well, as others have noted, the ball came out and hit a maroon's players boot. Inglis was in front in an offside position. There were several things there to call a No Try on
iii) Phil Gould is how he is. There have been a plethora of times where he has had NFI whatsoever about the rules. Him blowing up about that try represents his agenda against the interpretation of strips and his larger agenda against those in charge. He is a disgrace to the game and how viewers perceive it
iii) What late hit on Thurston? The hit by Cordner was brutal but it was fair game. It was simultaneous/slightly slightly late but he was never going to pull out of it on time

i) I don't think he had control over the ball. You say we've had worse ones given, you've got to also remember that we've had more conclusive efforts denied as well.
ii) Part of the reason why it looked like a strip was because of the ridiculous speed at which the video referee slows the replay down to. I said it many times last season that I feel that there should be a standard speed that we slow all video referee decisions down to to ensure fairness. If Inglis was ruled to have been in an offside position then a penalty surely should have been awarded? In any case, even if Inglis was in an offside position, it still should have been a scrum to QLD as Pearce knocked on first.
iii) I'll give you that one - I feel sometimes that he seems to invent rules and other times picks and chooses the ones which he wants to follow. However, in this game I agree with the points he made about those key decisions.
iv) Again, judging by what we've seen this season, we've seen far less late a hits on kickers penalised this season.

The ridiculous thing about the Inglis no-try, is that if he was tackled, and QLD subsequently scored it would be a try. That's where the rules are a bit faulty.

To be honest the major thing that upsets about the Inglis no-try, was that we don't get to laugh at Dugan's attempt at a diving tackle, whilst 20m away from Inglis It looked like he was in a bad American TV Movie.

You are kidding. Both hits on Thurston were textbook. Well timed, at the body and solid. I'd hate to see those penalised.

I still had a bit of a chuckle. I think he took a few NSW chasers out with that too.

Morgan's strip was identical to every other standard strip that has been penalised in the past. It's the risk you carry when you have your hand all over the ball while you're making a pulling motion.

Gould had a shocker, his interpretation of nearly every key decision was wrong. His interpretation of Morris' try was even worse.

 

[saint.nick]

Gould was sucking Klemmers c**k all game even when he was acting like a genius.

His bias to NSW knows no bounds

Oh stop crying, for every time he sucks off Klemmer he offers 10 glowing appraisals that labour the point of how wonderful QLD and their mentality are. At least he tries to be impartial, unlike the QLD representation in the commentary. All Wally does is sit there and cheer every time QLD do something good.

About 44 seconds in. First replay. I thought the strip was fine (it was one on one at that point) but then Myles hand hits it when making the tackle. Knock on any day of the week. And Inglis was offside from all that as well.

Maybe the scrum could've gone the other way if Morgans strip was fine but Pearce was determined to have knocked on. But there is no way that could be given a try.

Phil Gould and co just shocked that referees would decide to enforce the rules on such a big occasion.

 

[Aus_Dog]

Watching it as a neutral. I think that the NSW no try was a try and the QLD no try was a try. In that sense it sort of evens itself out. Just my opinion on both incidents

As per Game 1 the better team won and that's all you can ask for. Was an enjoyable game

You're right - it was a dreadful decision by the referee in the first place! How he missed the Myles knock on is surprising!
Good thing Inglis scored and we had the benefit of the video ref to get the decision correct. Would have been a shame to see the series decided on a refereeing blunder.


And we can still laugh at Dugan's tackle attempt? Surely??

Your taking this all a bit too seriously mate!

Twas a cracker of a game.

What's Origin without a bit of controversy

 

[THE CHAMP]

The Nate Myles knock on is inconclusive
When inglis picks up the ball he is in an onside position
It was a fair try.
Nsw outplayed us,I will give them that but only just.
Drop dce asap and bring in hunt if cronks not fit
Problem solved

 

[DJShaksta]

Inglis onside??
Get glasses mate.

It was conclusive, but so was the strip.

 

[beave]

Inglis onside?

FMD

 

[Tweek]

I've been posting here for 12 years. In that time, NSW have NEVER lost a game without it being the refs fault according to the dullards on here.

So biased it's not funny. Can't accept their own team just isn't good enough, have to find someone to blame.

next minute

That's just an all round terrible decision. Dear oh dear.

NSW fans cannot complain about the refereeing in this game after that call no matter the result.

Forward pass by the quarterback Hodkinson, and Gerard Sutton may have wrapped this one up.

Gerard Sutton 26 leads Queensland 18

So that's ok? Bullshit. f**king bullshit.

Gerard Sutton has single-handedly ruined this game.

Looks like Gerard Sutton is going to get NSW home.

hahaha. Sutton is making it too obvious.

Gerard Sutton 26 (Gerard Sutton 4 tries, Gerard Sutton 5 goals) def. Queensland 18 (Greg Inglis 2, Matt Scott, Matt Gillett tries, Johnathan Thurston 3 goals)

Man of the Match: Gerard Sutton (Gerard Sutton)

troll or serious?

haha - inconclusive????

the dopey qlder ripped the ball out of the smart nswelshman's hand..then the other dopey qlder touched it with his hand..it went forward ..then another dopey qlder stuck his foot out and kicked it forward to another dopey qlder in a offside position ...he ran all the way down the other end of the field .

Then NSW got the ball and scored.

oh and didn't we laugh and high five each other .

There is going to be a spike in cousin/wife beating in qld tonight.

You must be either taking the piss or have watched rugby league for however many years not knowing the rules of the game.

If that Nate Myles touch was not a knock on then there has never been a knock on in the game of rugby league.

Pull your head out of your arse. It was not even close to being a fair try. It was not a try in any way shape or form.
