Twice in the last year Josh Reynolds has milked penalties beyond belief to win his team the game. Last year v manly at brookvale with his self spear tackle and today falling over himself whilst trying to get up despite Tompkins not touching him.
I'm all for a bit of gamesmanship, but surely the referees aren't this dumb. I thought they had 'tip sheets' on players, wouldn't Reynolds read 'will constantly try to milk penalties, just ignore'?
It will come back to bite him, no doubt. Let's just hope it isn't for NSW, with the series at 1 all, 5 mins from full time in game 3 and he tries one of his specials only to have the ref, who is totally aware of his shenanigans, blow a penalty against him gifting QLD yet another series.
It's f**king sure to happen at the worst possible time.
