2021 R6 Fri - Melbourne 20-4 Sydney @ AAMI

[Alderley Rooster]

Meh

Just one of those get out of town games with (hopefully) no major injury damage.

Young walker kept trying.

Doubt they will waste too much time worrying about that result.

No such luck.

JWH and SST both injured

 

[Wizardman]

Has there been a more amateur commentator than SBW?

 

[Valheru]

No such luck.

That's why I said major

Roosters issue at the moment is they're getting belted through the middle, nothing to do with halves.

No he can’t. He made it up. If it went the other way you’d be blowing your top. Hypocrite.

yes he can as it was for negative play the six again not because someone touched it

Well done Storm. Way better than us. We’re lacking leadership and playing stocks are pathetically low. With Rads, Jared and SST possibly missing next week, I’m keen to see what sort of team we put together. I’ll play if I have to as long as Saints promise not to tackle me.

 

[Valheru]

Well done Storm...although the MRC will be looking at the HIA.

I don't want to see any player off the field but I'm not sure how paps possibly passed a HIA.

He was out cold.

I think amateur is being too kind.

Go to an open night at a pub and you'll see gun weekend warrior musicians ripping up on stage for fun.

Sonny is like if a random bum who never touched a guitar got up on stage and played Jingle Bells.

Was Melbourne's forward pack which won the game. In hindsight, Teddy wasn't given much chance to shine. They'll be better for the experience.

No, he f**king can’t. From the laws of the game:

Where an infringement of Section 11 (10) (a) of the International Laws of the Game is committed by the defending team, the referee will recommence the tackle count by verbally and physically signalling “6 again”, except for the following instances:
• Professional Fouls
• Repeated Infringements
• Where play has broken down (eg the
infringement by the defending team results in a lost ball or an unacceptable PTB necessitating a stoppage)
A full penalty will be awarded in the above instances.
Where a referee awards a full penalty for a professional foul or repeated infringements, the offending player will be sent to the sin bin.

Play did NOT break down as a result of the infringement. Six again was signalled, and then after that he kicked the ball. The referee cannot go back and then award a penalty, because that situation does not fit what the rules say.

I mean it had no bearing on the game but the referee flat out got the rule wrong. That’s unacceptable.

 

[Perth Red]

Grant was great but it was on the back of one of our best forward displays in a very long time. Our pack looked well up for it to tonight.

Sure was. That elbow would have knocked out a Mallee Bull.

He’s from WA. They don’t understand the game.

Jus5 saw a replay of the Morris no try. Paps face was buried in the grass. He looked dead.
