2017 R23 Sat - Storm 16-13 Roosters @ AAMI

[tripster]

Cordner arguing with the refs about that. Where's all people complaining about that? Oh that's right, he doesn't play for Melbourne

Anyone see Cameron Smith giving the refs a lecture after the end of the game. Again, surely deliberate - the whole idea being to further put the refs under his thumb for future games, safe in the knowledge he can't be penalised or sin binned at that point

 

[Pedge1971]

That right the is Pearce in all his clutch glory.

I thought he was good at club stuff?

 

[Headless Chook]

Great game. The chooks can hold their heads high.

Nothing wrong with the ref's boss talking to his subordinates after a game.

 

[Generalzod]

It was there for all to see how the Melbourne Storm are protected species the last penalty proves it geez the same thing happened to Blake Ferguson no penalty given...

 

[Tommy Smith]

So proud of that effort.

We're right in this comp we just need to be more composed.

 

[Danny-Boy]

Storm didn't show up and they still won.

 

[Tommy Smith]

Roosters leading 5 linebreaks to ZERO.

If not for eleventy billion penalties the storm would have nothing

I remember the Storm beat the Sharks before the finals last year even though the Sharks smashed them in line breaks.

I'm liking the parallels.

 

[stormbati]

Despite the refs performance early in the game, it turned out to be a ripper. Intensity was immense!
Storm did a great job on JWH and both sides great defensively.
Roosters spine played well apart from clutch Pearce.

 

[TheDMC]

fantastic game. Aubusson lost the plot in defense at the end, cost the chicks the game perhaps.

Loads of whiny biotches on this thread. Good being a neutral sometimes, can enjoy the game and you guys make me laugh.

 

[Maximus]

Show me the rule that states it is different.

Ok

Section 11 Note 1. (b)

Mid-air tackle 1. (b) It is illegal to tackle an opposing player attempting to field a kick whilst the player is in mid-air. The catcher must have returned to the ground before being tackled. (See Section 15.).Applies only when a player on the non-kicking team catches the ball on the full.

The other captain could do the same. Brains aren't developed enough though.

 

[STORM.99/07]

Thanks for 2nd Melbourne, but you didn't deserve it

We did .. we scored more than the chooks .

 

[Apey]

And you cant answer how Inglis and Reynolds can self-somersualt and recieve penalties, after voluntarily putting themselves into a risky position, cause the onus is on the defenders...

Yet, mysteriously, tonight the onus is now on the attacker .

Well, because what you're raving on about has literally nothing to do with the topic at hand. But sure while I'm here I'll talk about something completely different; no, nobody who flips themselves over on their head on purpose should be getting penalties.

 

[Surely]

Sutton didn't even hand out ky tonight

 

[Danish]

Ok

Wheres the part that says the dangerous throw/lifting rule doesn't apply?

 

[The_Shield]

Bet the chooks captain doesnt argue this like grub Smith would..

He did argue it. And nobody said a thing about it.

 

[Hutty1986]

We did .. we scored more than the chooks .

Are you 13?

 

[mave]

Different scenarios, same principle.

Either the onus to not be involved in a dangerous tackle is on the defender, or it isn't.

Take your pick.

 

[Saxon]

If it had contacted with someone's melon,it would have been a send off.He'll get fined for it.But FMD,the bloke must be on crack to do a stunt like that.

Nah, he's just new to the game. He has only started reading the history books and hasn't got to the bit where they changed the rules to stop Dally Messenger hurdling players.
