Yeah, hit in the Roosters attacking half.
if he was 6m further back and got hit it would have been Raiders ball.
Let's all pay no attention to Soliola barreling into Keary's legs on the 40m line.
Looks like incidental contact to me. Soliola is going in for a tackle with his arms in a wrapping motion, gets hit in the head and goes down, coming into contact with the legs. Play on.Let's all pay no attention to Soliola barreling into Keary's legs on the 40m line.

Referee standing two meters away didn't see it that way mate.Can't tackle the legs of a kicker. Penalty every time (well... almost).
Several players were suspended for it earlier this season

No charge from the match review committee either.
Play on.
Yeah, I saw his hand in the air, it was signalling six again.Ref also called last tackle after correctly adjudicating that a bomb didn't actually touch Tedesco and ruled a turn over. Ref was right there, hand in the air.

Wighton did look at the referee, he had his hand in the air signalling six again.Best look again. Might want to pass that advice onto Wighton too

No, what we would have preferred is the referees to acknowledge they f**ked up and caused a disadvantage to the attacking team, and allowed us to replay the final tackle.I don't think any roosters fan doesn't think it was a shitty call.
What we find laughable is that some raiders fans think that it would have been a less shitty call to actually award 6 more tackles to your side despite us not touching the ball.
It's still such a f**king dumb rule.
Replaying the previous play the ball should be only solution to something like this. Why should the team that just had an entire set of six and had their kick charged down get rewarded with another set of six just because their own trainer f**ks up?
Would have also been nice in that game against the Sharks where that dopehat on the sideline put his flag up and then the Sharks strolled through to score after the Raiders had stopped playing.A null tackle rule so long as the refs didn't over use it really could work for both situations that happened
