Imagine getting bailed out of your own half that many times against a suffocating team like ours and complaining about the ref. I wouldn't have been happy about the Luai penalty either but cmon have some self awareness.

TBH Wests Tigers supporters and fans are NOT noted for being self aware..

I don’t see what everyone is complaining about the Luai penalty for. Late/not late; there is a split second in it. But what is clear is that Luai does not wrap his arms and take Blaize to the ground in a safe way, and Blaize ends up in an awkward position. That has been a penalty everyday for the past few years now.

And Brad f**king Schneider shouldn't EVER replace him in the middle

Chins, did you either listen or watch the presser. Yeo explained that he was gassed in those last few minutes and NEEDED to come off.

TBH BS did what was required of him during those couple of minutes.

We never get penalties for Nathan being hit like that. He gets belted all the time and no matter how late it is. It's play on. Pretty funny the player who gets a penalty for it is Blaize.

We have been penalised for the same thing a bunch of times too. It's a soft penalty. But this type goes against us more often than not. Tigers had soft penalties all game, got away with slowing us down, second efforts, high shots and they go bitching about the referee?

If he wasn't carrying up the field all game Tigers wouldn't have had a single attacking opportunity.

Agree nath gets hit a lot like that and it isnt called but If it had been our player doing that i wouldve been angry at the player cause we always get pinged for it. Romey couldve hit and wrapped and it wouldve looked way better. He took a risk going all out on a kicker, its always a risk these days.

I want Yeo to have a spell in every non finals game but that certainly wasn't good timing

He should def be getting a rest now. He shoulders such a huge load. We need to get him down to 70 mins a game or even 65 post origin. Just find something that works for 15 minutes.

It doesn’t sound like it was planned

If folks (not talking about you Luke) didn't go off half cocked about Ivan. Actually listened or watched his presser, you generally get these type of questions answered.

Ivan then went on to say the work load of the origin players this year has been higher because of our poor start to the year.

It's almost like folks who yell and scream when buying a new appliance but didn't bother to read the manual before attempting to use said appilance.

Getting away with something doesn't mean it's a good idea

Eh I wind the wife up all the time and still going strong 15 years later.


Seriously I do get the idea. Schneider's best attribute was his defence when he signed he'd cut everything down with the best of them but he's lost that this year.
