Why wasn’t that a 20 metre tap? Moot now with the penalty but a shocking decision to start.

Have to agree. I couldn't see anything to say he didn't go into touch befoprte passing the ball. It looked, to me on TV admittedly, rather cut and dried. Panthers may have issues to rightly complain about in that game, but the May no try is not one of them.

The main issues I saw.

Forward pass try
The short of the line/double movement try
The Martin strip

Different game if those decisions are correct.

That even allows for the short 10m and the blockers for the kicks which vary from ref to ref

Well I hope Chris Butler doesn’t see first grade this year, he’s had a shocker and we’re only 5 minutes in.

Oh f**k off that pass was 5 metres forward.

Standing still so momentum not a factor, throws it on the 10 metre line and it’s caught 5 metres out.

Butler having a shocker, cannot be in first grade this year.

Chris Butler is riding the Cowboys hard here. No penalty for Hosking being taken out, and now 3 bullshit penalties in a row.

clearly the NRL has instructed him that the Raiders are not to win the pre-season challenge.

How is that not a penalty?

This ref is f**king disgraceful. He needs to be hooked at half time.
