4 nations game 7 - 4 nations final - ENG V AUS

Either way there was serious doubt he would have scored regardless of the head high, hence it shouldn't of been a penalty try but just a plain penalty.

He gets hit high twice, one of those contribute to dropping the ball. you can't knee people in the head to stop them scoring. For mine it's pretty cut and dry.

That's bullshit mate. Look, you can criticise Thurston for the high shot.

But it's hardly the fault of the defender that an England player dived into his knee.

 

[Mr Angry]

well i am looking forward to the second half.

 

[Big Pete]

Exactly Masoe. Those are never pulled up and I doubt they even came into the equation for that decision. It was clearly just the JT incident, which is incredibly bogus.

It's on the board though and now Australia have to suck it up and earn their trophy.

I won't say anything about Eddie Hemmings. It's already been said.

Loved how Carney put him in his place.

" No more Eddie, I don't wanna hear anymore complains about England not getting the rub of the green. "

 

[AuckMel]

Terrible decisions to (A) Deny Australia a try and (B) to award England a penalty try.

Should be 14-0

 

[beave]

Haha Vossy trying to claim no penalty try because it didn't involve a concussion.

I don't think he actually said that..........

As far as I'm aware, that shouldn't have been a penalty try but a straight out penalty to England, Thurstons actions were not the reason the try wasn't legitimatley scored (Lewis was the reason) but the play goes back to the infringment by JT. Bizarre shit there tbh.

 

[God-King Dean]

C'mon boys.

Do it for Locky.

It's mad mate. I fancy plenty of Australians on here are slamming the ref a bit too muchh. But English fans acting like they're hard done by when the ref has favoured us is riding on the coat tails of f**king lunacy :lol:

 

[gypsy]

Has Inglis done anything at all?
Surely someone gave him a fire up at halftime, or at least a bucket of kfc.
He's been at souffs too long!

 

[gypsy]

right on cue. Yep someones got him kfc at halftime.

 

[pcpp]

Horrible kick by Sinfield on the 4th tackle

 

[Mr Angry]

our winger forgot thier long studs. poor.

 

[Big Pete]

Aussies have started this second half poorly.

 

[God-King Dean]

lol, 'good stuff'?

Eng just wasted two tackles.

 

[snoozer]

i love gallen

 

[Big Pete]

Aussies crack first.

 

[no name]

One other thing with that penalty try was the blatant knock on in the ptb right in front of the ref when Watmough was penalised.

 

[gypsy]

inglis wouldn't have dropped a cheeseburger like that.
