What's the problem? When has the bunker ever got one wrong?

 

[tomdl]

So sick of the Burgesses getting bullshit penalties week in week out. You are meant to get to your feet before you play the f**king ball.

 

[BunniesMan]

That should have gone the other way, the rules say you have to regain your feet before placing the ball on the ground.

The penalty wasn't about the drop ball. The penalty was the Manly player on his back going on with the tackle after the ref told him to get off.

 

[eagles4eva]

They look off tonight

 

[Snappy]

anyone other than BM think that was a legit penalty ?

 

[skeepe]

The penalty wasn't about the drop ball. The penalty was the Manly player on his back going on with the tackle after the ref told him to get off.

Prior to that, Burgess placed the ball on the ground. Penalty should have gone to Manly, at worst a knock on ruled against Burgess.

 

[Unscrupulous]

Lol Manly are woeful.

 

[--Storm--]

I think Manly are in for a thrashing here, early signs not looking good

 

[Anon]

When a player stops on the spot to avoid an obstruction penalty why do opposition players make the tackle? If they all just stand back there's nothing the attacking team can do but give away a penalty. If he runs, kicks or passes he gets done for obstruction and if he stands still the referee must eventually penalise him for a voluntary tackle.

[Walt Flanigan]

[Snappy]

wow thats soft

 

[eagles4eva]

Wow that was easy... Long nite ahead

 

[skeepe]

Well that was soft.

 

[tomdl]

I love watching Moanly lose but it's far less sweet when it's going to be the rabbiturds giving them a touch up.

 

[BunniesMan]

Cameron Mcinnes for origin. 5'10 and he carries 3 players over the line.

Prior to that, Burgess placed the ball on the ground. Penalty should have gone to Manly, at worst a knock on ruled against Burgess.

What Burgess did with the ball came after the Manly playing laying on him too long. I agree what Burgess did was wrong, but it came after the illegality.

 

[Unscrupulous]

Jesus Christ that McInnes' face is heinous

 

[Vic Mackey]

$700k well spent

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Terrible kick
