Really? I thought Benji was good - was in everything for them.

Seriously, the Aiken try was a try !
Are you listening to the radio ?
Benji played poorly under pressure that shouldn't have been put on us !
Like I said, we'll be back !

plus after putting a nice grubber through and re gathering he decides a flic pass is the right option and goes 5 metres forward.

just my opinion but I thought he was off tonight. especially in that 2nd half.

Widdop was deemed to have been grounded.
50 50 call, but wasn't as big a clanger of a decision as the dragons no try.
Do you think aikens try was no try ?
Lmao.

Dragons first try was clearly a knock on.

Aitkens try was a forward pass that was ruled a knock on to cover the ass of officials sending a forward pass up in the first place. If the video referee is to rule on the 'knock on' it's inconclusive anyway. Touchie called it and they still go upstairs which is stupid.

Widdop had momentum the entire way pver the sideline and it was 100% a dud call.

The entire game the Dragons were marched upfield with cheap penalties on their own line making it impossible for Eels to keep pressure on them.

This. Dragons have only themselves to blame, penalty count was 10 - 4 their way as well lol.

As was your 2nd try.

And your 3rd came on the ruling of a disallowed try to us which was a try.

Pretty unfair game all round. U were flat, we're ordinary but showed a lot more heart and won. Fair result

More concerned with the inconsistency with the video ref.
Farrell no try, Sandow dive.
Radradra second try from Sandow running behind his own player.

Nabuli's no try was a try, Aitkens was also a try.

I still don't know how the f**k Saints fans can feel like they were robbed after winning the penalty count to that degree, some of those penalties were soft too, that decision to call a penalty when Widdop was put into touch was the worst of the lot, could of easily been the game changing decision too at that stage in the game

Dragons has their chances and weren't good enough on the night, nothing to do with the officiating, if anything they should be thankful

I agree with the post to a point, Marshall took the wrong option in that instance. There was a yawning gap to his right & he failed to get the ball there going for the glory play instead.
It was still a try however.

Its the old give heaps of penalties to the visiting team then over rule every fair try they score.
Lets face we had our chances but we played dumb arse footy.
Three legit trys were stolen from us...by the c***ting incompetant match officals.
Talk about home town refereeing !!!!

Completely agree.

St George supporters are worried that they peaked in May!

Benji throwing passes into the grandstands and forward passes is showing that's he starting to go back a little bit too his old ways.

St George are starting to get a couple of injuries too!
