Anyone Who Bags Fui

It was a legitimate, if unofrtunate, penalty.

If no one had have charged Kimmorley and he had have nailed it, everyone would be up in arms about how lazy we were and blah blah blah...

It's just one of those things that you have to sometimes cop in a game of footy.

Can't bag him too much but if you extend the forearm/elbow towards the kicker you are always going to get yourself into trouble.

No one can blame Fui, i was more upset at our halfback's ridiculous field goal attempt which put them in field goal range anyway.

Shhh....didn't you know Finch is half the reason we're still in touch with the 8 :sarcasm:

You have to admire the effort of Fui, though that was always going to be a penalty and unfortunately, justifiable.

Kickers are protected species, can't attack the legs and can't attack the head, that's the current rules whether they're right or not's a whole other debate.

Kimmorley is about 4"1', had it been any other player Fui would have hit him square on the chest

Just a query, do you think if Luke Burt would have kept the ball in play that it would have been play on, as they wouldnt have had time to check the replay?

They would've checked it at the next play stoppage, so if Parra had've gone the length of the field and scored, it would've been the first thing looked at.

I agree with Noddy, $h!t way to end a good game.
