That is both unlucky for Parramatta, who need every bit of luck they can get, and an understandable decision.

You can understand the Eels and their fans feeling hard done by, yet the decision is not blatantly wrong, so you could argue the video ref process is working in this instance.

A shame for the Eels, because now it looks nearly impossible for them, yet they haven't been too bad. At the same time, well played Tigers, another good half of football for them, they are having quite a season

That was a terrible call from the refs there. Obvious tigers knock on.

I think he called knock on from the Moses kick. He dropped it on the ground & kicked it after it bounced.

I don’t think the refs are that dumb to not realise the tigers did the next knock on, after they tapped it up & forward.

I think the final try was a blatant wrong call.
They slowed it down enough that you could see the post slightly move while there was still a slight gap below the ball.
I tipped Tigers and Parra have been pathetic, just think they got that one wrong.

Looking at the Eels team I'm not actually sure they're underprerforming.

They have the worst pack in the comp, some serious mud in the 3/4s and the spine is overrated.

The reason I was confident was because I looked at the 2 middles and think ours is significantly better. Packer and Mats set the tone early and we lose little when Twal/Aloiai/Eisenhuth take over. Plus we’ve now got a 9 on who can take advantage of the forward momentum. Our attacking issues in the first 3 rounds have stemmed from terrible service to the halves. If Liddle was fit from round 1 he’d be in the discussion for NSW.

Eels haven't been to bad haven't had much ball if it evens up they can get back into it. Tigers need to just play the same way repeat sets getting to our kick after scoring. Just good controlled footy until we get to their 10m. If we defend like this year 20 will be enough if parea score early will make me nervous.

Haha Arthur is such a fraud. Thanks for getting Foran and Watmough off the books!

I think parra have been terrible, however we lead by 14 points with 15 mins to go last year and got run down. It doesn’t take much to get momentum in today’s game. We need to score early this half and put them to bed.
