2020 R4 Sat - Eels 19-16 Sea Eagles @ Bankwest

[Pete Cash]

This should be the rule, but it's not.

Why should it be the rule. The panthers scored a nice try last night where Mansour scored in the corner. The pass from Burton (i think) to Kikau and Kikaus final pass all had the receiving player catch the ball about where the ball was passed from. What would the game gain by passes like that being called forward

 

[T-Boon]

The NRL have admitted the call was incorrect.

They have not

Moses: "it was a forward pass, I'm glad the refs got it right"

Lol f**k off

Confirmed by refs boss that it wasn't a try.

Annesley now needs to come out and say Cummins is a f**kup and has been let go

 

[skeepe]

They have not

You’re embarrassing yourself at this point.

 

[SBD82]

I was confident that the pass was fine until Annesley agreed with me.

Now I don’t know what to think.

His retirement ceremony to be at canberra stadium when crowds come back on a special "members get rancid tomatoes day"

Easier to make the correct call. As it stands you have to take into account the wind, the movement of the player passing, whatever spin is put on the ball, and goodness knows what else. You can't tell from the direction of the hands looking at replays because you don't know the exact direction the player was facing. I'm not even sure how Annesley managed to come up with a decision on this, but if he can, why can't the bunker?

 

[GongPanther]

FMD the ball was thrown backwards, that is all that matters. End of story

Occam's Razor applies..and I concur, end of discussion.

Look the pass went forward and was ruled forward what else do you want. This isn't bush week.

I'm a stickler for, you know, the rules of the game ?
Im all for innovative rule changes, but the officials need to adjudicate on the rules, as they stand today.

 

[Apey]

This should be the rule, but it's not.

I agree we should ban passing while running forwards fast.

 

[Fangs]

Hahahaha use your f**king eyes you idiot.

Trust a raiders fan. Embarrassing.

As always the game will go on. Stronger than ever.

The funny thing is he’s from Canberra originally.

The more complicated you make it, the more chance of getting it wrong.

On a serious note, why has your account been rebooted?

You have been around forever

 

[GongPanther]

Yeah, it was a bad call at the worst possible time but it's more forgivable than the two tries that were given the green light by the bunker.

If only that forward pass could have been sent to the bunker, they might have got that one wrong as well.

This could be a blessing in disguise. Manly will take a lot from the game and come out better for it. The Parra scum will get a false sense of confidence and get belted in the next couple of weeks and ultimately bow out of the season barely firing a legitimate shot.

 

[T-Boon]

We should just agree that if the ball goes forward you are asking for trouble. If the ball is caught 2 metres in front of where it was passed the ref should see irrefutable evidence that it went backwards. I insist that people need to settle down. Listen to reason and so on.
By the way, Annesley is crazy.

Parra all agree that we were pretty bad and we only won because Manly are stupid idiots. I hope Jamie Lyon is crying in his pig soup with his inbred children screaming in the background.

 

[Tipster]

A cracking game of footy. As I posted before the Eels are the real deal this season.
