Rd 14: Non Parra games

Wtf.. You cannot throw a ball of an opponents head and catch it and play on.

Tony Williams passed that forward to himself. He pulled out of the pass before marketo hit his arm and ended up lobbing it forward over benji to himself. No way that should be a try

The game is a farce. Worst decision I've seen in a while. U could never throw a ball over the oppositions head. EVER.

In the end, was the bunker able to make a call on it? They can't make a call on fwd passes. I only caught the end of it when the ref was trying to explain it to Widdop......couldn't work out whether it was his opinion or that of the bunker.

They ruled it an accident so play on ... I say horse shit.

But was that b/c it was the onfield ref's original opinion, or was it coz the bunker said it was an accident?

Im pretty sure the bunker ruled on it ... they werent judging if it went forward, it clearly did - more how it went forward

Im a bit puzzled how the onfield decision was Try. Surely you would have guessed it illegally was thrown over the defenders head and regained

The rule has always been u can't throw the ball over the oppositions head, and regain it. Not sure it would matter if it was intentional or accidental.

Going by that logic, forward passes should be play on, as who intentionally throws a forward pass??

The game has never been in such a state. Smh

Yeh, I was busy frying off some lamb shanks, and was half-listening half-watching. Looked pretty bizarre.

Yes you could.

That's why they changed the rule to stop it.

I'll tell you what....cows are easier to milk.

 

[hineyrulz]

That decision was just laughable, the refs are getting worse. How the bunker ruled that a try is beyond me.

Cowboys are allowed to punch now

You reckon it was a punch? I reckon he used an open hand

He split him open pretty good... i think it was a fist... tho admittedly i may not have been paying complete attention

I remember Hayne did that in 2009 and was ruled no try.
