2021 R9 Fri - Parramatta 31-18 Sydney @ Bankwest

Now we turn our attention to the judiciary, at the time the knee slide on Hutchison wasn't even deemed to be a penalty but now after the contact they've learned he might have a punctured lung, they won't miss him (the judiciary that is)

It's a joke the way they treat incidents, if he gets up and plays on.. Dylan Brown is right to go next week

 

[Babyface O'reilly]

They were pretty even IMO. Difference is one played in a side that was on the back foot most of the game

Moses was, bizarrely, our least dumb playmaker. He's developed a great kicking game.

But Walker is a superstar in waiting.

Best kicking game from Moses I can remember. Is his future still being settled?

Can say what u like about the eels attack and whatever you want about the 6 again rules and how refs adjudicate games , but the roosters put the all the bottom teams that have been smashed this year to shame and more importantly their coaches to shame

He's got until next week to take the option in his favour, if not he is open season

He has a four year extension on the table and he seems likely to take it.

Not sure how four years will go if he does, but I think with the halves around the place the extra year is the price you pay to keep him

What in the f**k.... What is this from?

 

[Babyface O'reilly]

Does calling the officials incompetent incur a 10k fine?

Would hope not. I think it's been a good presser and he's absolutely got the right to say what he has.

If they were gonna put DylBro on report it's useless to tell him as they run out after he's made the change(s)

Yep. The problem is not the rules, nor the refs. The problem is shit playing rosters being coached by incompetent staff rosters.

Not in this case. he deserves an apology for how that was handled.

Nope , he wasn’t disputing or whinging about decisions he rightly had issues with the brown going on report 20 minutes later

 

[Alderley Rooster]

I still dont know how leading with the knees causing major injury isn't a straight send off?

If this was in China he’d quickly have disappeared through a trapdoor ..

In this case though, I’m not really sure how it’ll go. Could come down to his record...

If Ricky Stuart was the coach here n said exactly the same thing, I’m pretty sure a big old fine would find its way to him. Irrespective of if we all agree with the comments..

I get the feeling there won’t be a fine as they’ll be embarrassed enough about letting the incident go, correct themselves at half time etc... it’d be bad PR to then issue a fine ...

Who knows though.. we’ll see.

Difference is that Ricky just blames the refs for everything every game

 

[Headless Chook]

I think Robbo was critical of the process which to be fair was shambolic. He wasn’t questioning the match officials integrity.

Maybe / maybe not.

But that’s my point.

Either way, his reputation would come into the equation for warranting a fine or not. Robinson doesn’t have that same reputation and so I think that’ll come into it...

Irrespective of the incident itself, the failings of the officials, and the coaches comments being seen as “right” by people..... a fine or not may come down to Robinson’s reputation..

 

[Bring back John Fifita]

The last 2 games for the Roosters have resulted in 2 different examples of extreme deflation...

A big win but losing 2 guys to ACL’s late...

And a loss under circumstances tonight, losing players early, controversies near half time, other injuries, and a huge possession deficit....

I’m sure they’ll come out professional next week but geez they’ve been through a wringer...

I thought Robbo was measured and spot on, but it's 2021 and truth bombs are deemed evil.

And how come it goes on report 10 mins after it happened , Trent had every right to blow up in the presser, it was criminal. Parra could have and should have been down to 11 players in that section of play with what happened to Tedesco seconds before also. Interesting had that been a fair try to Hutch would the ref or bunker awarded an 8 pt try considering they couldnt see anything wrong with the knees at that point.

Curran and the long haired shark (can never remember his name) both got sin binned for supposed contact to the head..

Both were front-on tackles that were inconclusive if contact was actually made with the head.. one got a big suspension ...

niukore both braced for the tackle with a shoulder, moving to a side-on position.. AND made contact with tedescos head....

Yet no sin bin.

Annesleys “players have to learn” statement from a few weeks ago is an absolute joke. It was then and even more so now.

The Niukore tackle makes it farcical. And while not head contact, the Brown tackle makes it all off the charts ridiculous...

The judiciary may catch up with both players but that does nothing for the team that the eels defeated tonight...
