[MrAnonymous]

All momentum. Should of been a try.

 

[skeepe]

I would rule that a try. Momentum took him across.

Then he shouldn't have made a second effort to promote the ball.

 

[Alan Johnson]

Bounced and then got the ball down in the momentum. Thought it should have been try.

 

[Tommy Smith]

That's horseshit.

Momentum carried his upper body into the in goal.

Also, Bryce Cartwright is great to watch. Just a proper footy player and will play 30 games for NSW, injuries permitting.

 

[soc123_au]

It was momentum, but at least they have been consistent with those rulings.

His upper body ended up in goal. All he did to promote the ball was put it straight down.

If he kept his arms in the position he landed, I would agree with you. But the fact he made a second effort means momentum doesn't matter.

 

[meercat]

Clearly twisted himself slightly to try promote the ball, if he didn't he probably would have made it anyway

Apologies, I thought we were watching the same game. Clearly not.

Yep, it looked so awkward, nowhere near natural momentum.

 

[Pugzley]

Ivan Cleary half time spray coming right up.

 

[billypilgrimnz]

We played better in the second 20 minutes, but it's been through catch up biffing the ball around because the Knights are monstering us in the forwards.

We needed to score again before the break.

Anyway, the sooner we get a better half than Wallace, the better.

 

[typicalfan]

The fact that it took the refs a dozen looks proves they have nfi.

 

[billypilgrimnz]

Apologies, I thought we were watching the same game. Clearly not.

No need to apologize. I couldn't give two f**ks about your opinion, so lets call it square.

 

[perverse]

Surprised there is even a discussion, and it shows just how much rule interpretations are screwing with everyone's head. That was as classic a double movement as you'll ever see. Can't believe he needed more than 1 or 2 looks at it, especially when the on-field ref got it right anyway.

Both arms hit the ground and he reached out with a second effort. Double movement, simple.

 

[Nugget10]

first 15 minutes we had 100 penalties for holding down. The next 25 you couldn't buy a penalty. Fmd.

Penrith playing like absolute puss. We'll be lucky not to concede 40 if we keep playing this poorly

 

[Frankus]

We are being bashed across the park. We clearly miss Segeyaro and Soward. Brown's service out of dummy half isn't helping us either. He's half a second slower than any other dummy half in the comp which is allowing the knights forwards to be smashing every ball runner 1 or 2 off the ruck.

 

[Tommy Smith]

Penrith have shit front rowers.

That's their main issue. Latimore is the only one worth feeding and RCG is still a rookie so can't expect much from him.

 

[billypilgrimnz]

Newcastle score once more and the game is done.

And Wallace. Wallace is not very good.
