The forward pass

Just because it needed its own thread.

This game was decided on 2 counts.
1. Our first half completions.
....but more importantly..
2. The referees.

After watching 80 minutes of blatant forward passes from dummy half by smith - the refs put an end to the rot that wouldve seen us take the lead.
With a 50/50 call.

Everybody was happy at 18-6.

Fans.

All of a sudden the party looked liked being cancelled.
18-6 looked like being 24-18.

Cam said forward pass and the whistle was blown.

Crap call but they need to be resilient. Teams going badly usually get more bad calls. Sharks had all the momentum at that stage.

When you play Storm you play 15 players. All their games are rigged cept when they make a mistake , like the last few min of our well deserved Grand Final win.

Touchy was happy to let the pass go but Cummins pulled it up. Same as one of the penalties on Woods in the ruck, pocket ref calls storm player milking and within seconds Cummins blows storm penalty!

It was one of those weird ones that got thrown forward slightly but because Nikora keeps going forward Feki takes it behind him so it looked flatter.

Wouldn't have been called if thrown by someone in Purple last night but it wasn't the wrong call.

Nor should we have fallen in a f**king heap after that call either.

Here's half of the problem. Our forwards except for TPP and Capewell who played 3/4 game in the backs made no ground. They tried IMO but the 50% completion rate in the first half negated their ability to get their runs happening, then the metres diminished. The back 5 other than Capewell made no ground either

The back 5 has been an issue all year too. Look at Fergy. He gets that shit eels side moving.
Any team that wants to play with speed has a back 5 that gets the roll going and does the hard stuff.
