2020 QF1 (1 v 4) - Panthers 29-28 Roosters @ Panthers

If the guy with the ball is on the ground, he is “held” as soon as a defender puts a hand on him.

It’s probably a shit rule. But it’s the rule.

But nobody touched him before he was pushed back.

The second they touch him they have to stop pushing.

One of his better ones in the second half. A lot of the others were nearly ‘game management’. There were numerous times he should have given set restarts to Penrith as it was obvious that the Roosters were deliberately slowing the play the ball as they couldn’t handle the quick play the balls. There were also multiple times the Roosters were a long way off side but not called, but then the Roosters get one after a bailed play the ball. There were a couple of lifting tackles not called as well.

Yeah, okay...

 

[Westernised Panther]

Can’t see anything except a huge roosters win here

Thanks again @Rhyno

 

[SBD82]

@forby coincidentally the play that you’re talking about was just replayed on Kayo.

There is no way he grounds it in the in goal before being tackled. Think you might need to rewatch.

 

[Vee]

Angus is the best backrower in the comp.

First time I've noticed him being anything more than pedestrian in years.

You've got to tackle the bloke in such a way that momentum pushes him ingoal. Better that someone like Kikau or JFH does it.

 

[GongPanther]

Is that counting when Souths scabbed on the tigers... truly

You'll have to be more specific.

 

[GongPanther]

I’m already looking forward to raiders V roosters. Grand final replay in an elimination game should be awesome.

The intensity will match last night's game, although you would think that after dealing with today's game V Sharks, the Raiders will have more in the tank. A match up of high magnitude proportions.

What are your thoughts on the panthers 2nd try and the penalty to Naden late in the game?

What are your thoughts on the 95 forward passes Roosters threw out of dummy half which weren’t called? Or us getting called off side when you guys were working it off your line yet Sutton couldn’t find one for us under exactly the same circumstances?

 

[gerg]

Lol nothing’s been said til you brought it up 12 months later

Let's not get too off topic here. This is the PANTHERS forum afterall.

I'm not whinging about the reffing mate.

 

[Pete Cash]

If we are relitigating old games about how the refs screwed our team. Little known fact the raiders have never lost a game without it being the refs fault. Crazy i know

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Can't see either of these two teams winning the comp,should be another GF win for the Storm

 

[forby]

Why?

The saving grace for Sutton is that he turned off the tap when the Roosters got back to one score behind. This is typically how these things work.

Sorry dual post

Yeah he tried to give that ridiculous obstrustion penalty. Lucky we had a challenge.

Unfortunately we didn't have a challenge for tha Naden clean drop.
