Loved the push in the scrum. Pretty sure we did that against Manly too.

If they seriously think that is up there with the worst refereeing they have seen, then they dont watch much footy

Admit, 7-2 penalty count is a bit lop sided .... what was the 6 again count? Cos they seemed to do very well with that ... penalties and 6 agains are similar these days

If the fergo drop and the push in the scrum is the worst things they can come up with, then they are really clutching .... fergos drop wasnt even line ball, it landed well behind him. It was different to other deflections, it went straight through cos it was f**kin wet

Cmon Johnny boy. Be very careful what you say there. If you thought that was a knock on then you clearly didn't see the Wade Graham which was the obvious one.

The old saying..."Winners are grinners, the rest can please themselves"

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

Anyone expect any changes for our next game? Would like to see fergo and/or sivo be given a week spell.

Fergo and Sivo, or any outside back for that matter, were never going to star in those conditions


No one was. But didn’t expect some of the brain farts they dished up. Fergo’s performance was ‘better’ than Paul carriage back in 98

The ball brushed his hand and finished 5m behind him. How the hell would that be considered a knock on?
It was definitely a knock back, but Morris was right, they usually call them a knock on. Anyway f**k him if he wants to whinge about refs making the correct call rather than being consistent and making the usual wrong call.

Nah not those. It finished so far behind him there’s no way it could have been knocked forward. I agree that plenty of balls that seem knocked back get called up these days, but I don’t agree that this one should have been one of them. I’d say the same if it was any other game team who did it.

except the Bulldogs.
It would've been interesting if he'd called it a knock on and we challenged it. The video ref would have had to look at where the ball was touched and where it landed. It would've been pretty clear.
