2017 R23 Sat - Storm 16-13 Roosters @ AAMI

Because you're allowed to tackle attacking players in the air.

Yes, but he put him in a dangerous position.

 

[This Year?]

Oh you mean like Cordner when he was questioning the ref? Oh wait a minute. absolutely no one complained then. It's only when Smith does it.

A bit different when Cordner questions 5 or 6 calls in a row against his team and the ref has stopped time to talk to him.

Smith did it because he couldn't handle the fact his team got a call against his team.

Actually Smith & Thurston. Both carry on like whiny little b*tches if/something goes against them.
To be honest, not their fault because the a*slickers in the media perpetuate their greatness(they are)and the refs sh*t their pants.
Refs need to man up.

 

[Unscrupulous]

How did he get his way in that.Ref was wrong. Any captain would have questioned him..cordner questioned the ref but has anyone complained about that?

It's all your solicitor captain ever does. Seeing him cop bad decisions every once in a while fills my heart with joy.

 

[moffla]

Everyone is having a go at Cameron Smith, but you can't seriously tell me he's wrong?

It's embarrassing how he knows the rules better than our officials. I'd hope any captain would do the day for their team

Not really. He got into a dangerous position. The defender didn't really put him in it.

You're talking to someone lacking a brain. Takes a bit for it to sink in for them.

 

[MKCS]

It seems every year that the referees have a favourite. I remember the year the Roosters won the comp their favourite was Souths then Souths lost so the refs rode them especially hard to get home.

 

[Pedge1971]

Does Hodges have marbles in his f**king mouth?

 

[STORM.99/07]

Doesn't matter, you can't stand there and have a debate with the ref.

Cordner questioned the ref earlier so where is the outrage about that

 

[OzDragon]

Some quality whinging in this thread

 

[stormbati]

FMD Ferguson is allowed to be tackled and the only reason he ends up in a dangerous position is he tries to get the ball down and passes it which puts his body in that position!

 

[Tommy Smith]

9-3 penalty count to the Storm.

If this exact game was replicated as is and we were the Broncos it'd be about 3-3.

 

[Smack]

god dammit vonnie why you so hot

 

[mave]

Not really. He got into a dangerous position. The defender didn't really put him in it.

Lol what ?
The onus has always been on the defender.

Remember Inglis and Josh Reynolds doing somersaults to get penalties in the recent past ??

Double standards methinks.

 

[CliffyIsGod]

That vuvuvalu is a little f**ker hope JWH decks the prick

 

[CliffyIsGod]

Double standards methinks.

Plenty of double standards in this game don't you worry.

 

[This Year?]

Double standards methinks.

Absolutely.

Thank the refs for that.
