Match Discussion: Round 25 vs Rabbitohs @ Hunter Stadium

[Glendale]

Yeah attack has been our main problem in this second half of the season IMO. At the start of the year it was a matter of, ''well, you can't score without the ball'' because we were conceding 40-50 points a game. But I think we've got our act together a bit and we have had games where if we put some points on we woudl have won them. Our biggest problem is we have no support of he ball runner, it's just all one out.

There is no such thing as a voluntary tackle when coming out of your ingoal. The commentators need to learn the rules.

 

[K-Man]

Defenders should have 2 seconds to drag or push a player who makes a voluntary tackle. In that time you can do anything legal to force him back in goal once he has flopped on the ground. When the ref calls held you have to complete the tackle as usual, you can't keep pushing them back but you can still take your time getting off him.

 

[The Undertaker]

Referees are a joke. So if every player runs to the line, drops to his stomach and gets a hand placed on him, the defenders have to immediately get off and not shove him back or it is a penalty? Sounds like touch footy. You could deliberately do that to get quick play the balls or earn penalties, but then it only seems to be a problem to the refs when it's in goal.

Thats exactly what they've done with that soft voluntary tackle shit. Milked the penalty and got a try out of it.
Penalty should've been to Knights for Souths wimping it

I'm amazed at the crowd. I see so many people sitting there, arms crossed, obviously annoyed as f**k. Yet there's what, 20,000 of you? If I lived there I'd have a hard time getting myself to games this year.

As a Raiders fan in the match day forum said "it's like paying over money to get kicked in the balls every week".

 

[Zoidberg]

Piss poor defence. New record to be broken today, biggest old boys day loss

 

[perverse]

Why do the refs hammer the shit teams? God we get some dodgy calls.

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

What the actual f**k.

 

[Pedge1971]

Perenara is a f**king merkin.

 

[Zoidberg]

Sign Phythian for life!

 

[The Undertaker]

f**kin YEESSS

 

[Burns]

Good on the young bloke

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

Have we found our next joey?

 

[perverse]

If Hages were still here, he'd have a 700k 7 year deal in his mailbox.

Good to see, though. Kids having a go, not a bad passing game from dummy half so far either for a bloke who isn't a hooker.

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Well done mate.

 

[Zoidberg]

Yeah, seriously, good on him. Shows what some enthusiasm and energy can do.

 

[perverse]

Everything other players do, our players do like 30-40% worse.

 

[Zoidberg]

The most consistent thing we've done all year is make a mistake right after scoring a try.

 

[Burns]

Off to England Mamo

F**king hell Mamo
