Notice how Alien/rabbits20 always come in a thread after everyone else leaves after the game !
They would get torn to shreds otherwise with such stupid posts.
It's always odd how their statements at the end of these threads never match the general theme of the thread previously.
Even supporters of other te teams know that Matt Checcinthemail was helping you win !

Re: the Carter try

Channel 9 don't seem to show the split screen view any more, but they did at the ground.

On one angle, the one 9 showed, it looked like Dugan grounded it. On another angle, one 9 didn't show, it looked like he missed it.

It was a 50/50 so should've been no try based on the on-field call, but I don't think it's as cut-and-dry as people think.

9 should go back to showing what the bunker are viewing.

The better side won this game and not much more needs to be said about it.

Except one thing. The NRL should at least try to avoid having teams play twice just a few weeks apart. It happens three times this round.

Post game,Fox again showed Dugan grounding the ball from a completely different angle (from the corner camera on the far side of the field) which Fox,in its initial live broadcast did not show.

There was clear proof that Dugan grounded the ball,and Brandy at full-time was fuming about that issue.

We all have been harping about this for 10 weeks in regards to the fact,that this bunker is not making any difference to the older system we already had.

All it is doing,is highlighting the problems that we had with the old system.

I think Souths were probably marginally better but geez they got lucky with the reffing.

Don't know what r20 is on about. Both clubs Atleast half a step in front of the ref at almost every play the ball. Dragons slightly longer in the ruck but I feel a lot of them were good tackles putting the runner on their backs. Packer was especially good at this.
Oh well. Disappointed but good grinding win to Souths in the end.

Yeah I'm with the majority here, we did get some 50/50 calls that helped but geez St George going for the 2 every time they go to our end was frustrating as a footy fan, but relieving as a Rabbits fan.

Seriously, what does that say about the confidence of the team? I have no doubt that if the Dragons were a little creative (like they showed in the last 5-10 minutes of the game) that they could have easily laid on a few tries in the first 20 minutes.

Alas, i'm glad we got the win and now we have the bye the boys can get a bit of rest before they take on the Titans. Things are looking up.

Hopefully Reynolds' performance got him into a Blues jumper. Wasn't spectacular but it got us over the line. Here's hoping he can do the same for NSW.

His finger tips touched the ball, which changed the way the ball moved, but that doesn't mean he got downward pressure.

Well I was at the game, and I had a nice drink and feed after the game, and then I caught the train home, so get over it.

Yes I don't agree with the anti-Souths circle jerkers who always say if Souths win it's because they get "leg ups" or that the ref favoured them.

Even supporters of other te teams know that Matt Checcinthemail was helping you win !

Hahaha what a stupid post! Your team lost fair and square. Stop being a sore loser!

As opposed to the view of you and f**ktard20 where you can only lose if the refs are against you...? :roll:

That's not my view. We definitely lose games where the refs are fair.

So what you're saying is R20 is a sore loser when he does this? Has to be the case as you've accused Owen of doing that. Diddums20 will be heart broken to hear this development,

I have a great life !

You're using the divide and conquer strategy, but we are aware of your mind tricks! :cool:
