Worst Try In The History Of Origin

[Mortar]

Matty Johns (on NRL on Fox) just said that in his opinion it was a fair try

Of course it was a fair try, Harrigan explains it perfectly.....

"It's a try. I'll break it down. Greg Inglis had possession of the ball and was trying to score a try," said Harrigan at Rugby League Central.
"My thinking is (NSW hooker) Robbie Farah has decided `I need to do something to prevent the try' and he's changed his gait and dislodged the ball with his leg.
"When that ball was dislodged it comes off the forearm of Greg Inglis but that's a rebound not a knock-on because he didn't play at the ball.
"And the ball was laying on the ground and he puts his hands on the ball and that's why it's a try."

[Mortar]

Having a differing opinion to Mortar on pretty much anything is a good sign...

Is that the same as thinking that satanists are the same as athiests? :lol:

 

[docbrown]

It's simple mathematics.

[HowHigh]

Wonder how much QLD paid him to say it

 

[Knightmare]

Mind you, Harrigan also thought that NSW try, scored via a double knock-on, was fair in Game 1 of the 2000 series.

Guess we can't argue against Hollywood's opinion can we?

Not exactly the same, there are ideological differences, one being that group A believes in a devil of some sort and group B does not.

Quick now, go log back in as Mr Fourex...

....And yet still more coherent, imaginative and intelligent than you clearly are....

Funny that someone as deluded and dishonest as you would try to use imaginative in a sentence...do you even know the meaning of the word?

 

[Mr Fourex]

another lie from liarmare.........

Matty Johns (on NRL on Fox) just said that in his opinion it was a fair try

Matt Johns also said NSW shouldn't pick Hayne.....

 

[Dragon2010]

Matt Johns also said NSW shouldn't pick Hayne.....

Marty Johns also said he didn't deserve selection himself......

Johns say's allot of things.

He didn't have the time to analyse the play when he made the decision, unlike the GI try.

Ask him now what he thinks of the 2000 try, he'll tell you there were two knock ons.

Who is this Marty Johns you speak of?

Is he any relation to the other two numpties.....

 

[Knightmare]

I haven't heard of him saying as such, but either way he was dead stubborn about it for a long, long time.

Wow. Just wow. Honestly what the f**k are they trying to do to our sport....

 

[Loudstrat]

And ask him about Jason Smith's disallowed try v St George in the Olympic stadium opener......

 

[Loudstrat]

So the rule changes. I'll wait now for the next ball that hit's a players arm or hands and goes forward - without him playing at it - to be ruled play on regardless of how many times it bounces ffs.

 

[Someone]

yeah you've got to ask yourself this, if its on halfway is it play on or is it a scrum?

the rule has to change.

How the f**k can he have played at the ball in the split second it was kicked into him?

He doesn't attempt to regain possession until the ball is on the ground and he scores. The same when someone kicks the ball into the opposition's hand in general play, they wouldn't rule it a knock on as it wasn't played at.
