Poor diddums needs his special tee to kick off.... :sarcasm:

 

[andrew057]

That was the explanation from the refs. Went to ground untouched then as he was getting up (ball off the ground, live again) was when the hand got on him and so he never was held.

Thats the problem. The replay CLEARLY shows that ball was on the ground.

 

[typicalfan]

I expected better.

 

[Rhyno]

Should of took the tap

 

[carlosthedwarf]

Why go for the goal now when you didn't 30 seconds ago?

 

[Chook Norris]

Why the f**k would you kick for goal. Very negative thinking. We score there and we have all the momentum

 

[Dutchy]

Should of took the tap

Should have taken the tap.

 

[typicalfan]

Well Roosters back in this now

 

[Aragorn]

tide is turning...

 

[Snappy]

Thats the problem. The replay CLEARLY shows that ball was on the ground.

but at that moment no one was touching him

 

[typicalfan]

Time to put your stamp on the game Johnson.

 

[Danish]

How did we not get a penalty for Nathan Friend being in no man's land and still trying to tackle RTS?

 

[Meth]

but at that moment no one was touching him

I agreed with you, but then andrew057 used capital letters and now I don't know what to believe.

 

[typicalfan]

Roosters winning the ruck now.

 

[Danish]

As an aside whatever super treatment Ferguson allegedly got in the states to heal his foot early clearly hasn't worked. His foot is causing him obvious discomfort every time he touches the ball

 

[Dutchy]

I agreed with you, but then andrew057 used capital letters and now I don't know what to believe.

I believe he calls them big letters.

 

[Chook Norris]

Smart kicking by Johnson

 

[Danish]

I agreed with you, but then andrew057 used capital letters and now I don't know what to believe.

At the end of hte game I'll rewind and get a screenshot of the ball on the ground and the hand on him. He is on his knees and elbows at the time.

The argument I suppose is if that constitutes held or not, but my understanding was always ball carrying arm touching the ground and a defender touching you is automatically held

Climbing roofs clearly not on the agenda tonight.

 

[Meth]

I'd put my money on the Roosters to win from here
