2024 R17 Sat - Melbourne 16-6 Canberra @ AAMI

The ball goes dead. Should be a seven tackle restart.

 

[skeepe]

Why isn’t that a 20 metre restart? Melbourne took the ball dead so it should be greatest advantage, which is a 7 tackle set.

Atkins really does find new and innovative ways to f**k us.

Munster, Papenhuyzen, Meany, Pezet, Smith and now Coates (again).

We have had a rotten time with injuries

I think the ruling was knock on before the line which probably was right.

 

[chrisD]

Embarrassing that this team is leading the comp.

 

[skeepe]

Bellamy’s just off to neck himself

 

[Artiste]

That big ogre always drops it

Big brain Nelson.. huge play

Penrith, Melbourne and Broncos were the 3 premiership favourites before R1, Melbourne and Penrith have handled the injuries well while Broncos have shit the bed.

It was, but if there’s a knock on in the field of play and then the ball goes dead, they play a set restart because that’s the greater advantage for the non-offending team.

And another Melbourne player touches it before it went dead. That goes back to the knock on in the field of play.

NAS just saved himself 60 strokes from Bellyache’s favourite strapparooni

It was knocked on before the line but then the ball was taken dead off the Storm. Should have been a 20 metre restart.

We don't even need to hear Rickys press conference explaining this loss

No wonder he was so desperate to get the ball back!

 

[mave]

LOL Jordy......you stay down, you go off.

 

[Rising from the Ashes]

Melbourne will finish 18-6 and then lose in the prelims, classic Melbourne season

 

[skeepe]

Atkins put his whistle to his mouth to call the penalty for the late hit then moved it away again.

He is f**king terrible.

 

[Artiste]

Off to passing practice for you Nelson
