Hearty lolpawwa. Was half watching, half getting blind, did Pawwa even tap it? Looked to me like Sanderp just set off.

Thought the call was harsh in context but correct. If they let that go and Pawwa score, then the Dogs can cite how unfair it was that they didn't follow convention.

The ref's are crucified either way.

Then scrap te quick tap. Arthur was correct, if it happened in the course of play downfield somewhere ts play on, as it has been many times before. Garbage that a ten year old kid is expected to adhere more exactly to the rules than the referees.

Anyway, on to thailand today. Malaysia has been typically great, Phuket tonight.

Tautai was in the field of play when passing it.
Sandow tapped incorrectly.
And no mark had been set.

I was cheering for Parra, the correct call was made.

Arthur needs to learn the rules before he goes on another tirade. And somebody needs to sit down with the Kid, let him know it would've been called back regardless.

Agree that consistency is the issue and the ref's simply are not. Enforce all the rules all the time, not when its convenient. Agree that other weeks its not an issue.

Nevertheless, what Dutchy says:

Tautai was in the field of play when passing it.
Sandow tapped incorrectly.
And no mark had been set.

... is right.

Agree.

Dragons just scored a try in U20s from a quick tap following a 40/20. The ball was passed in by a team mate.

:lol:

Go to the bars and just people watch

IT's awesome

I was a very handsome man there, particularly when curfew was half an hour away

A mixture of relief that we actually overcame the hoodoo, thankfulness that as poor as we might be, we aren't as bad as a Stuart-coached side, and joy that we won the game.

LU is an asshole. Huge front page headline blaming the young ball boy for Parras loss, and chance of making the 8.

For shame.

Agree. I just made a comment. FFS, that's a dog act for a man to blame a 10 year old for a games result.

Change it, and the first paragraph.

It was the ballboy's fault

Anyway Go Dragons!! Bout f**kin time we got a win down there

The Eels player should have followed the rules and not asked the ballboy to pass it to him.

And defended better in the first half.
