2022 R11 Sat - Sydney 12-32 Penrith @ SCG

[This Year?]

Just noticed the Edwards obstruction no try lol

 

[Bazal]

That's a try, but interesting that a black and white rule is not black and white on this occasion

I mean it still is.

Cleary made a defensive decision to throw his arm out and pull the back pike triple somersault.

 

[Munky]

Salmon comes on and the team goes to shit yet again.

Correlation but is there causation?

 

[GongPanther]

Our defense average of 12 is unbroken.

Absolutely not. Outside shoulder contact with the defender, black and white is not black and white at all.

 

[Bazal]

Absolutely not. Outside shoulder contact with the defender, black and white is not black and white at all.

*Outside arm

Which Cleary threw out. Could have been penalised for taking a man off the ball if they hadn't scored

 

[This Year?]

JFH just tackles Keary without the ball

 

[Warnecke]

I hope uncle Nick is watching. He'll have to pull out the chequebook and buy a few more PENRITH players to make the Roosters great a

Has to be an 8 point tr

Scored on by 12 men. That was pretty shit.

Panthers have been off the entire 2nd

Cleary initiated contact, sure enough, but under the rules we've been following for a few years now Edwards was obstructed. Not that it matters.

 

[GongPanther]

Suuaaaliii wishing he was with the club as a local junior.

 

[The Realist]

Salmon comes on and the team goes to shit yet again.

Correlation but is there causation?

He is a weak defender. Roosters gained metres and quick play the balls running at him.

 

[GongPanther]

Realistically, we preserved ourselves for next week's game in that final 20 minutes.

Revisionist bullshit. Been called that way this season consistently with a black and white mantra as justification, outside shoulder contact with the defender, Wighton’s three or four weeks ago being the most egregious and far less in the grey than this tonight.

 

[Bazal]

Revisionist bullshit.

I'm not sure this means what you think it means...

 

[This Year?]

The good thing about this loss for the Roosters it shows the areas they can work on. Once they get Smith next season they will be a contender.
Hooker has been a hard position to fill for them since Friend retired.

 

[chrisD]

I'm not sure this means what you think it means...

You’re acting like it hasn’t been called this way all season, black and white, revisionist bullshit.

 

[Bazal]

You’re acting like it hasn’t been called this way all season, black and white, revisionist bullshit.

You're acting like they've never acknowledged a defensive (arguable that was Cleary's intent in this case, given the dive) decision.

Seems a pointless discussion.

 

[GongPanther]

Well, we fully know who the NSW halves and lock will be. Just a matter of wondering whether they will pick Api as hooker.

Wighton’s was a defensive decision, didn’t matter, as they cited, outside shoulder contact with the defender.
