I’m not questioning the legitimacy of that try but what the f**k happened then? None of that looked right

This f**king ref hahahahaa, this is the same idiot that went to the video ref for something in backplay the week before.

Vunivalu stripped the ball, scared he would give away a penalty he just let the ball lie there and Burr picked it up.

Weird but legit.

There's zero consistency with when the ref calls held, Papalii was held for about 5-6 seconds and not moving, surely the play is dead?

Strange way to get 6 again. Vunivalu just put it on the ground and raised his hands in surrender. The abomination of strip ball rules and interpretations we have had over the years clearly have players confused.

I am happy for the Warriors, and don't like Vunivalu at all, but it is not great to watch a team just place the ball down for the opposition. Hopefully it is just because he is an idiot rather than because the rules have been all over the shop.

I thought live he always looked likely to offload, but it is just a judgement call from the referees in that situation. As it turns out on replay, he wasn't likely to offload and Melbourne were probably a bit unlucky there for a few reasons.

Yeah I don’t think you can play advantage there, it’s a penalty to the Warriors for the strip.
