haha what a disaster for you.
It happens all the time, 100% penalty, never not been given until now... but you can’t find me one god damn example

hit the bricks, clown
You’re done
A disaster for me? My team just won back to back premierships and their 3rd in 7 years. I’d like to go back and watch all 25 rounds to find what you are after but will give it a miss. I’m busy on here educating you on the definition of dangerous tackles and watching replays of the gf. I always start watching from the 71st minute. So much awesome stuff happens from that point.

What a way to celebrate a premiership
It’s pretty cool actually. The tears on here take me back to that night high up in the stands listening to the Distraught raiders fans trying to understand how they could possibly lose having had all that possession. The Iceland clap being silenced as EASTS echoes thru the stadium.

But it doesn't overrule the actual rule that says if the tackler is committed they can't be penalised.

Under your interpretation of the rules any kicker can just jump in the air after kicking the ball and auto penalty. We'd see 50 penalties a game because merely breathing on a kicker would result in a penalty. Lucky your interpretation is wrong because that sounds like a shit game.

This is no different to tackling a player in the air fielding a kick. If it bounces first and the player jumps to catch it they are free reign.



But it still can't be a penalty.
Where does it say that it doesn’t overrule? It is very clear. Cannot be dangerous. No conditions attached.
To say keary jumped is laughable?
Your last analogy is just ridiculous. You can’t attack the legs of a kicker.

Mate they’ll just condemn him as another nobody. Dies t suit their narrative

It wasn't a penalty it was a charge down. Oh hang on it wasn't a charge down, it wasn't a penalty because of some clause they made up which isn't in the rule book. It was a legs tackle that put the kicker in a dangerous position. Has been a penalty all year. Realistically we are arguing with the dregs of this forum.

He legs tackled the much bigger Boyd Cordner who is the same height and weighs less. Much bigger. Cordner got up and played the ball, Leilua was caught offside. It's literally the reason Keary had a 3 on 2 open to him.

Legs tackles arent rewarded in the game. It happens. Scapegoating players or officials is just drooling caveman level dumb.

Umm you see how in the laws and interpretations doc you linked earlier how some of them have a reference to a section on the right hand side. That means it further explains, or overrides, that particular rule. Now see how the one you posted doesn't have that? That means it's not relevant to any particular rule in the rule book, therefore does not override the actual relevant rule.

Of course Keary jumped, hence how he ended up a foot higher than the positioning in the photo posted earlier.

You can't attack the legs of someone fielding a kick either. Oh except for in the situation when the ball bounces first.

That's a helluva imagination you've got there.

The difference being the decision that benefited you guys was widely celebrated, this one that allegedly benefited us has resulted in the death of the sport apparently.

I am certainly not saying that we are dudded, simply that 6 again standing would have dudded us.

Like i said probably in this thread thats because people hate Melbourne and humans are inherently hypocritical in that way. People like to see misfortune on teams they hate.

Its why we can roll around with a team full of pommy scumbags and nobody really cares. We are too irrelevant to hate outside of the few nutters like gypsy and any fanbases carrying a grudge over stick or papalii making gallen cry

Just because you're a dumb merkin with no knowledge of the rules, doesn't mean it is made up.
