2019 R23 Sun - Raiders 14-18 Sea Eagles @ GIO

[Pete Cash]

Right so Canberra’s niggle is ok because it’s just niggle whereas Manly’s niggle is not ok because they are deliberately conceding penalties.

Ok I think I get it.

Manly know what they are doing when they play the Raiders lol. Its no excuse for the raiders but they do niggle us quite a bit. Games between the Raiders and Manly have been quite dirty for the last 3 or so years.

I am not excusing the Raiders at all. The fact we meltdown like this is why we cannot win the comp.

Happy for this to happen.

Let's start at round 1 2020, and keep it the same all season, regardless of game situation, etc.

Gus and Joey will squeal and it will be stopped a month into the season.

How is intentionally standing offside niggle?

 

[Canard]

There certainly is some dumb nigglers on both teams......

Yeah, they can't do it mate. I bet if i had the stomach to ever watch this game again I could find at a minimum 10 play the balls i consider not played correctly. So why was Sutton the only guy pinged ?? They just cannot be consistent.

 

[This Year?]

What a great contest between 2 very determined sides in a finals rehearsal. Enjoyed the thread and the game. Thank you.

It's not as bad as its made out being out of the running. For instance, you can watch those who accused you of whinging about the refs, whinging about the refs.

It’s not. Who said that? It’s just a sensible thing to do when you’re up by 4 points with time running out.

AFB Got done for one as well

Mate. Nobody whinges about the refs like you.

 

[nick87]

The NRL needs to immediately review his HIA rule. It's now beyond clear that teams are using it to stop momemtum on the back of line breaks.

I thought that was a fumble and not a tunnel ball ? Either way the point stands I bet i can find tons that weren't called.

Congrats on winning second prize.

That's what I'm referring to when I say spoiling tactics. And you were doing it all game, not just the last five.

Anyway, we still could have won and didn't. Manly have some good fans and hope this win gets you into the top 4(at the expense of south's). Looking forward to the finals.

 

[Pete Cash]

Also all tunnel balls should be penalised (yes it will stop the flow of the game until the players learn to use their f**king feet) because its a huge advantage to the hooker. Certain players never playing the ball properly help them get a fast play the ball and have the defense back tracking when its undeserved.

So again I have no problem with Sutton or Fonou-Blake being penalised for them. I just think they ALL should be penalised because its unfair to let them go. Its even more unfair to let them go and randomly penalise one every so often

Manly got two dud noncalls that cost us games this season's against Saints and Souths.

If he got that I reckon they don't.

Refs suck.

That call when you played the Dragons was correct.

It’s just that you’re biased. So you can’t see it without a distorted perception.

The raiders fans in here are suffering from the same affliction.

I, of course, am above all that.

We got an Annesley apology for that one.

But I have embraced chaos. My dream is for the Storm to lose the GF on a dud 80th minute call.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

What about Raiders fans?

What about us? I think both teams were subjected to a poorly officiated game

170% correct. And that last attempted Manly try was off a kick, so it wouldn't have counted anyway
