Trial: Parra vs Penrith

[lingard]

Was super impressed with Gordon's positional play at the back, and Scott's work ethic - he dropped the ball a bit, but gee he's a good defender.

Question - let's say the attacking team starts on the 20m line. A defending player is running back to the 30m line to get onside, and the dummy-half runs directly at him.

Is the defending player allowed to make a tackle once he reaches the 30m mark, or will he be penalised?

I had a discussion about offside with a mate and I'm not totally sure tbh.

What coloured shorts is the defending player wearing? (Serious question.) (No, it isn't.)

Here's old Ken in 1968, in shorts that don't look very blue or yellow:

Could you post that picture in colour so that I can be sure they're white?

What if he does it before Round 13?

That's a rhetorical question, right?

I want to say Tahitian vanilla....

Really - why? I personally think they are an embarrassment to the club. Since 1947 we have been the blue and golds. White has never been part of our colours - so why wear them?

I hate them.

I like them.

I much prefer our blue and gold strips, but I really like the white one.

I'll take that as a rhetorical question...

Is that a rhetorical answer?

No. A rhetorical answer is one that requires no question.

I reckon I could really eat those shorts, then.

Sounds more appetising than the neapolitan shorts.
