[69-05-41]

Is 2020 the year of the Pawa fairytale, the touchie appears to have received the email. Manly robbed.

Will any team beat Parramatta this year?

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

Vlandys wants Manly to die.

He grew up in a time following Rugba Leeg when everyone hated them intensely. Would make sense

 

[Hutty1986]

Fantastic and brave call from the refs. The fact that I had $50 riding on Parra 1-12 has absolutely nothing to do with the pride I have in these officials tonight

Good odds?

Besides putting up their flag for conversions what use are touchies

 

[mave]

Put your $$ on Parra for the comp this year.

Pretty clear what the agenda is.

 

[Fangs]

Forward, and obviously forward as well. Not that Fox Sports would report that. Plenty of poor decisions tonight.

Still a great game of football.

 

[t-ba]

I'm not particularly happy with the skill level but Manly showed plenty of guts tonight.

The final score is a fair reflection tbh.

Wasnt forward, but makes the last try equal

No it f**king doesn’t you muppet. Kane Evans didn’t score either, Parra were gifted that win by the officials.

Wasnt forward, but makes the last try equal

Eels got a dubious one too.

 

[Perth Red]

The illusion is created by Tommy T being tackled as he releases the ball. If he continued running as he passed it would have been clearly backwards

he was running on a diagonal not straight forward, which is why it looks, and is forward.

 

[Lebbo73]

wow, robbed

Fair call. Manly’s second try wasn’t a try. He dropped in cold grounding it.

 

[Meth]

I don't understand how anyone could think that pass was forward.

 

[Tommy Smith]

That was an unreal pass under pressure that should have won the game, too.

Turbo & Manly robbed of a great game winning moment.

 

[Bring back John Fifita]

Welll it does go foward

it does. Released at least a metre before the 20m line, caught on the line.

 

[t-ba]

Would have been nice to see your early defensive efforts rewarded at the end. Holding on wIth the Eels early could have (and was) the difference.

It's a good side.

Got Melbourne, the Roosters and the Eels out of the way now as well which is good.

 

[hineyrulz]

How does it feel??? When you make a massive comeback and only to get rorted by a blind touchy in the 80th min??



How does it feel??! Like a bowl of dicks I presume???

 

[Pete Cash]

That video that @some11 posted above is a good one and shows why the ball must go backwards types have a poor understanding of physics. If a player runs at pace and throws the ball up in the air behind him it will travel forward with momentum from its starting position

Exactly
