Congrats to Wade for making Origin, but I reckon fox did the wrong thing by telling him in the interview. Should have been told in the sheds with his team mates

Err, or just take the tap?

Wouldn't chew up 40 odd seconds an attempted penalty would. Then get the ball back at around 40m with 2 minutes to go. If the Cowboys tried to kick short off it they put it only 30m out from their try line. 2 minutes for 2 sets both just about guaranteed to be played in the Cows half.

Still kicking it worked out so it doesn't matter. Tough game Cows, your defence was exceptional.

If Marty tapau only got a week for his hit on bird, then graham should get 5 games added to his nrl games played tally.
If stomping and the other shit Nathan brown does every week goes unpunished, it will be a joke if wade gets anything more than 75 points

You are forgetting who he tackled.

That refereing performance was a f**king joke. That merkin should never be near first grade again. ..and certainly not origin

How was the shoulder charge by Holmes on Taumololo when he made the break not a penalty ? No use of the arms whatsoever.

Tamou got done for less in the first half when he wasn't even "charging".

Would have made it 12-10 Cowboys. Different game because of inconsistent refereeing.

Might have had something to do with Holmes hitting him with his chest rather than his shoulder.

Let's not ruin a good thread whinge narrative by intimating that refs got calls wrong both ways.

I think the only thing we can take from this is that Sutton is nowhere near the big game/origin ref he's made out to be. Puzzling calls all game...If he's the best then we have problems...

Except on a couple of crucial calls.

Chest or shoulder makes no difference, the defining factor is whether you use your arms.

It all happened to quickly for the dozen NRL match officials to get it right.

So Graham has 50 % loading leftover from Final series. If he gets Grade 1 he is out and JT certainly not going into bat for him

Wade Graham had a grade 2 high tackle charge from last year's finals series. Means 50% loading. A grade one charge will mean out of Origin
