Match Discussion: Round 13 vs Storm @ AAMI Park

[Tom155]

Ref caning us again

We haven't got one yet have we?

Amateur.

At least we're a bit smarter giving away penalties in defence.

 

[perverse]

It's great to see Lamb going low in the tackle vs trying to wrap them up top. More little blokes need to do it. It's improved his defensive game out of sight in a short period.

 

[slotmachine]

Very lucky there to get the penalty for rolling him over cause he dropped it cold.

 

[perverse]

Well that was a nice little try. Bit clunky ball movement but it worked, lol.

 

[perverse]

lol, so the commentators want us scoreless so that they get donuts. What the f**k hahaha.

 

[macavity]

what a bullshit call

 

[perverse]

Siones handling has been really hot and cold this year. Still struggling with the additional contact.

Shame about that pass, too. Again, we've had a million worse ones let go against us. f**king frustrating.

 

[slotmachine]

Seen about 10 passes worse than that let go already.

The thing is, if we're a good team and win no one cares about a call but cause we lose every week everyone wants to focus on the ref and not laughable handling, managing to turn a scrum feed into a drop out etc.

 

[Spot On]

If that's f**king forward then there will be countless passes called back tonight won't there?

 

[macavity]

Wasn't remotely forward. FFS

 

[Tom155]

Wasn't remotely forward. FFS

Not even close but it's us

 

[slotmachine]

It probably was a cm forward but yeah, plenty worse.

I like we've got smart with the defensive goal line penalties. Ref won't ever put someone on the bin for it.

 

[slotmachine]

Ahahahhahaa, or not. Was pretty shameless.

 

[perverse]

It probably was a cm forward but yeah, plenty worse.

hahahaha. Won't send anyone from 15 other teams to the bin, yeah.

 

[Tom155]

Amazing the difference in what's allowed in the ruck between both teams

 

[slotmachine]

See this is what I mean. That was so ordinary at this stage of the game. We beat ourselves before the ref does.

Storm are best in the business Tom.

Despite the stupidity great spirit in that half. Last year we go in 30-0 down.

 

[perverse]

Yeah, they hung in. At 16-0 things looked very ugly. Good on em.

 

[NoSchitSherlock]

Last year we'd have heads down and would have given up.

 

[slotmachine]

Now this is always fun. Which team will emerge from the sheds? Hopefully not the one from the second half last week.
