Crap decision.
Bowen was impeded by the fact that McKinnon existed. McKinnon never moved into a position to impede Bowen. Had McKinnon stayed exactly where he was, instead of moving forward the 2mm that he did, Bowen would not have had any clearer shot.
From now on, a marker should run at the ballplayer and claim obstruction from not being able to takcle the dummy half.
Justa s rediculous as Hindy's 'hold down' of Matt Sing, who did a Trent Barrett and was ready to take off. Or Justin Smith's sin bin. Ive seen worse aggro at a CWA cake stall.

Misty Bee said:So McKinnon was penalised for not being teleported off the field????? :lol:

Simple fact of the matter is Wade obstructed Bowen....that simple.
If he stands still and makes no movement towards Bowen (look carefully where he places his hands on Bowen) then it is a try
simon says said:100 percent right.....definite no try.
If McKinnon just stood there, then he still would of been pinged as obstruction as Bowen was directly in front of him, and he would of had to go around McKinnon
Misty Bee said:So from now on a player who plays the ball can be penalised for obstructing the marker from tackling the dummy half, just be standing there? There is no obstruction if you don't move!!!!!!
Let's see that apply elsewhere on the field...I won't be holding my breathsimon says said:Its simple.....the bloke playing the ball cant touch the marker.
simon says said:And just for the record the better team won.

Misty Bee said:No doubt, but that's already been covered. Doesn't change the fact that the Ridell decision was a disgrace.
