2021 R12 Sat - Sydney 44-16 Canberra @ Central Coast

[Danish]

On the radio they were saying the corner post is regarded as in

well they’d know…

this is from the NRL article when the rule changed:

1. If a ball carrier makes contact with the corner post he will not be deemed to be out of play unless any part of his body has made contact with either the touch-line or touch-in-goal line, or the ground beyond the touch line or touch-in-goal line

2. If the ball is not in possession of a player and it makes contact with the corner post (e.g. from a kick) the ball will be deemed to be touch-in-goal as per the existing rule.

3. All other rules relating to the corner post and restarts of play remain unchanged.


Point 3 is the critical point there, as it states all situations not mentioned remain unchanged. The ball touching the corner post was always considered out, and it continues to be. It’s only the player’s body touching the post that has been been deemed ok

Cant see the funny side of that. Being under 18 he cant wear a betting agency on his shirt. Is the law??

What's the actual law though?

 

[skeepe]

One of the worst things out of tonight is seeing that complete and utter bell-end Trent Robinson happy.

 

[Alderley Rooster]

What's the actual law though?

That under 18's cant gamble?? So thus cannot promote gambling companies

there is no law. It was in the NRL’s guide lines when they ruled Sualli could debut early that we had to remove any gambling sponsors from his jersey

As opposed to Ricky " I may as well coach netball" Stuart.

They would eat him alive in netball

I think you will find it is illegal to use minors to promote gambling

Ricky is a scholar and a gentleman compared to your f**kwit of a coach.

I think that's your interpretation, not the actual law.
He plays for the roosters, they are sponsored by gambling agencies.
He's promoting it.

Yeah...nah.

Gambling companies cannot use minors to promote their products

I dont think Robbo really gives a toss he is too busy counting premierships

 

[Cogburn]

Haha there's more salt in this thread than the pacific ocean.

 

[shear_joy9]

Just typical of Canberra to sign the only f**ker in Penrith that can’t play footy.

Hopefully someone shoves Aetkins in one of George’s suitcases to England so that hack isn’t seen again

 

[Mr Spock!]

Mate I hardly give a shit because it means nothing but a ball is an egg not a rectangle

The corner post's in the air, Pete

 

[Mr Spock!]

You would think that the belly of the ball would have to touch the ground first ?

The corner post isn't a flat line.

 

[Perth Red]

Rickys lost the dressing room, again.

 

[TooheysNew]

Oh no...LU now getting server problems.

No, that was just you.

Mate, don’t give Vlandys any crazy new ideas or we’ll see the rectangle ball introduced in time for the 2021 semi finals.

Nah it'll be a cube. Easier to hold onto
