2017 R9 - Broncos 32-18 Panthers @ Suncorp Stadium

[The Mad Hatter]

Really merkin

Really what?

We were only in that because Brisbane did an us and collapsed in defence. They had 11 missed tackles at HT and ended with 55.

The Broncos have done well to win this match.

It's always disappointing to see the refs hand the inferior side 4/5 bullshit calls in a row, just because they feel sorry for them.

How Merrin is the AUS lock and McGuire isn't, wow just wow.

Worst sympathy ref performance you'll see this year. 7 to 3 penalty count against on our own turf after last week totally isn't suss at all. This comp is laughable at times.

That's a borderline impressive amount of misses actually.

Hooray no NRL next weekend!! a break from following a team that gives nothing back.

When they've got fans like you supporting them, who can blame them

 

[gUt]

Panthers are such a strange team. Player for player they should be matching it with nearly every other side in the comp. Moylan is a half or I'm a fullback.

 

[THE CHAMP]

Entertaining last 20 mins from Panfas.

Refs were excellent.

Jimmy grounded.

Even the goal posts hate the bronx.

Salty broncos fans.

Pretty good night for this little neutral.

hahaha fmd this one is great. go the mighty broncos 5 straight wins

 

[Frankus]

I was one of few Panthers supporters pissed off about that.

He has more heart than any forward at our club except for Yeo.

Rubbish. From memory you and betcats were creaming your jeans at the thought of lardarse coming here and said there is no room for ET in the 17 - he either starts or isn't here at all. I will have to go back through the archives and happy to apologise if/when I am wrong.

Last year Merrin played better than ET could even dream of. Was the right call

It's just so unfair

 

[Rhino_NQ]

had the riff with a 14.5 head start the finish off a pretty awesome multi. Was a very depressing 70 minutes or so

Lol how was that a try, that happens on 50m line it is a knock on, McGuire didn't strip the ball, Wallace had loose carry, knock on any day of the week

Perhaps because the ball traveled BACKWARDS???

Last year. Last....year. Listen to yourself. One of those Penrith supporters still thinking 2003 is relevant.

Game 2 2014 State of Origin: Hayne dislodges the ball from Thaiday's grip in a tackling motion similar to McGuire's last night and Thaiday falls on the loose ball over the tryline regathering simultaneously. It's ruled no-try due to loose carry despite Hayne's grabbing motion dislodging the ball.

I assume Panthers fans were okay with that decision.

So you're referring to a decision in a game 3 years ago to justify last nights incorrect call?? Blind Freddy could tell you that was a try.

Yes it did. I can't understand how anyone could think it was not a try. The commentators seemed to be harping on about it not being played at. What does that even matter unless the ball went forward? Wallace didn't loose the ball into the Brisbane player. He didn't propell the ball forward at any stage. I can't see any argument for no try.

So you agree then that Thaiday's try was legit and NSW have NOT won a series in over 10 years?

The simple fact is that the refs err on the side of knock on any time the ball is dislodged from a player's hands in the act of scoring a try. It is consistent with past rulings.

I actually think that was a try and I thought it at the time too. I haven't seen the replay for a long time, but if memory serves, I do think it should have been awarded.
