Foul play like George Rose'.....

[Kiwi]

Rose's shot was pretty poor, this is where maybe on report should equal 10 in the bin.....
As I am manly fan , i agree it was pretty poor form....

Then we wouldn't see refs putting foul play on report, they'll just start leaving things to the match review commitee. It'd be no solution.

There is only one solution, tell refs to grow some balls and send people off when it is warrented, don't wanna send people off, find another job, warn teams and players enough is enough, and never let up on obvious foul play. An instant 1 match ban when you are charged plus the charge, so no more getting off with points reductions. And warn the judicary to get it right or be replaced, if the unbiased fans can get it right, surely people paid to get it rght can.

The Rose call was just one of about seven that went against the Warriors in the first half. Archer and his mate were appalling, I still think the eagles would have won, but they were given a massive leg up in the first half by two incompetent whistle blowers. But we all know what will happen, Harrigan will come out give them the thumbs up.

I was happy with the penalty and Rose being placed on report. Seems consistent

 

[Chook Norris]

Nothing in it. He wasn't even looking at the warriors player.

just because you dont look at someone..doesnt mean you don't know they're there.. ever heard of peripheral vision?

and ye.. ill just decide to lead with force using my elbow and plunge it into the grass for no particular reason :roll:

 

[laurie]

looked pretty intentional to me.. he even cringed after lookin at replay on big screen.. send off yes but not in a gf... well done manly..

 

[Perth Red]

soft refing, what do you expect in the Gallop led modern game?

 

[maccattack]

Should've gone for ten. I AM SO SO SICK OF THE DIFFERENT RULES THAT APPLY TO DIFFERENT TEAMS, DIFFERENT PLAYERS AND DIFFERENT ROUNDS. f**kING OVER IT.

Agree totally. It was a shit act that deserved 10. When was the last send off? I watched that and thought 'should be gone but wont be'.

Manly were gifted another premiership. That was a send off and Watmoughs PTB was a penalty. Both change the context of the game. Manly may still have won but we will never know. pisses me off a bit actually.

 

[byrne_rovelli_fan82]

From memory, if players or teams infringed three time or more, the next player to commit it would be sent to the sin bin? What happened to that idea? Pretty sure it used to be around in 2007.

 

[maccattack]

to be fair to the eagles... they copped a dog shot when Brett Stweart was polaxed in the 2007 GF

That is one of the highlights of modern grand finals. Hate that gimpy lookin ...

He was falling toward the ground with another manly player going over the top of him. Was he meant to just let himself land face first on the ground?

He was bracing himself. Bunch of skirts in this forum.

[laurie]

Get over it you precious petals, MANLY ARE PREMIERS.........AGAIN!!!!!:lol:

Get over it you precious petals, MANLY ARE PREMIERS.........AGAIN!!!!!:lol:

So you're happy to condone players to slam their elbows into another player's face to win?
It isn't something that should be allowed in the game, be it regular season or finals. Deliberate act and intension to injure, certainly shouldn't be allowed. Is it any wonder fans turn away from the game? We can't even explain rules to the non-followers, let alone showing young kids the benefits for playing because the sport allows acts like this to happen.

 

[The.X.Factor9]

Looked bad..

Maybe they should introduce a 5 in the bin rule for people that go on report for foul play like this ?

I don't think he will get suspended, its post grand final... The judiciary will be lenient.

 

[Scaven]

Oh your tears, fuel me. We are the premiers!!

 

[seaeagle sam]

Cheap shot. deserved 10 in the bin

 

[bobmar28]

Imo it's not a victory unless you can do it without the refs help.

 

[Penrose Warrior]

Cheap shot. deserved 10 in the bin

Look people - it is possible to be subjective when talking about your own team.

 

[Bobby DIGital]

That was a straight up MMA elbow. Definite send off offense but Ceccin didn't have the balls.
