RIP NRL

[GAZF]

As Guler takes possession at 70.57 Cummins yells and signals last one, last one. At 71.01 he passes the ball. There is no other signal.

Move on raiders...

Clever but I was actually replying to someone claiming they took the tackle after 6 again call. Just helping set the record straight. You’re welcome.

And might I say, with stunning precision.

raiders held the ball. Clearly not the case. There were 2 passes

As opposed to kicking you fool

Just because Hodgson and Guler had the ball doesn't mean they know what tackle it is, they assume the last, Wighton calls for the ball because he sees the signal. The player with the ball who is engaged with defenders has nearly no chance of seeing a six again call.

Anyway the point is moot, the issue isn't who won but the fact that this incident occurred, alarming that the reffing has gotten this bad.

You still hear people go on about 1989, hell I still hear people go on about Manly vs Parra in 1976. This will never go away, it's etched in history now.

Etched with a large Asterisk.

Thanks. Best to be precise. People round here tend to get creative otherwise. Like implying raiders surrendered in the tackle.

I haven't watched the game on tv yet, have you?

No just at the stadium. I have a photographic memory.

What is funny in the tv replays. Is that only wighton seemed bemused about it not being 6 again, doesn’t look like many other raiders players reacted.

That's why the Raiders bloke was in dummy half getting ready to receive the play the ball. And Bateman was spewing at the ref.

Wah wah

True Bateman was the other player who didn’t hear the last call 4 times and the hand signal. Looks like calls even out in the end after raiders got the good call v the storm.

That’s the shit show we will continue to have to accept until they start reviewing every play like the NFL, even that doesn’t keep everybody happy.

I never here the end of the 95 GF from my manly mates.

Analysing every second of the game here constitutes having watched it on mute.

Will someone wake me when this thread is over

(p.s. Yes, I realise the irony of posting this).

Obviously I didn’t watch it on mute or how else would I have heard Cummins ask is it 6 again and then call last tackle 4 times. Seems the raiders players had it on mute.
As for watching the replay I must confess I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve seen it. Many wouldnt know but When you win grand finals it’s one of things that makes the off season more bearable. Strange but it never gets boring. The last 10 minutes in particular is awesome.

Can't comment on that yet. Had a fun day and was happy to be there though, the worst part was listening to two guys talk about anime on the train from Homebush.
