That last try made me happy. Big fellas running away like that. I grew up in Cronulla Sutherland, but am now living in the UK. I am still waiting on a call from my Jersey Flegg trials with Cronulla. Happy to come back if needed. But at 57 years old , it's looking like I've been overlooked. 😄

That try by Talakai plus the commentary from Ginane was magic

Yep, if you watch it, he caught the ball, stood there for a millisecond and since nobody grabbed him, he took off. I'd love to be a fly on the wall at the Storm video session - 1. why a short kick with 1 pt down and 6 mins to go, and 2. if you do that, you might want to consider tackling the guy who catches the ball.

That sin bin on Grant was ridiculous 😂

Now I'm a non Aussie (but a Dolphins fan). Clearly they are clamping down on contact to the legs during the motion of kicking. And aslong as the officials are consistent in the cards, then I'm happy.

I agree with the clamp down but they definitely need to look at it. Instead of “any contact with the kickers legs” it should just be like certain amount of contact and how hard you impacted them. Cos that definitely wasn’t worth a sin bin

@politenessman3901

22 күн бұрын

Maybe, but the Sharks were without their 6 and 7 (Trindall and Hynes) and major strike forwards in Finacune and Hunt, so it's a bit rich to think that Storm were at a major disadvantage.

That should take some of the pressure off the sharks to "prove" against a top side.

FS: I'm all for "The ref is right once the whistle is blown" but the actual officiation has to use common sense: Grant touching the leg of the kicker? Fair play give a penalty if the rule is protection and precedent. If that is the rule to protect the kicker it's a good rule. But touching and sin-binning PLUS penalty that impacts the game state with undue balance? FO... that's not common sense and is in disrepute of the spirit of the game and rules. Again I support the refs even if they get it wrong but common sense on that kind of decision not "letter of the law" which is inhuman and insensible really ain't going to help give spectators confidence in the process and benefit of the doubt to the refs when it's 50 50 decision when it's 50 50 interpretation and when it's split second definitive arbitration to move the game forwards right or wrong where all those apply all the time to refs on the field and 9 times out of 10 do a dang fine job that someone has to do to keep the game alive and flowing... The same stupidity in football for the handball in the box when the ball ricochets randomly touches an arm and penalty is awarded or point blank blasted at the player's arm at 100mph... C'mon professional bodies use your brains for common sense not legal or technical nonsense that's insensible. Otherwise utterly brilliant match to the wire by two teams playing awesome footie and a joy to watch week-in-out.

The refs have been making the same call all year against everyone. By now coaches should have come up with a new play for it. I heard one commentator saying some coaches have instructed them to go from the side with distance to avoid anything like this after the Warriors penalty earlier in the season.

@commentarytalk1446

24 күн бұрын

@@unluckytourist In this case, if you watch the player (Grants) by the kicker who's leg after kicking comes DOWN and into Grant... I mean the rule is clear: Obstructing the kicker via contact late = Penalty. If the contact is heavy then sin-bin if it's incidental then just Penalty. How hard is that for common sense to prevail. Being wrong, getting it wrong is fine in my book: It's error and natural but this is a mistake: It's avoidable because it's so simple and and sanity should prevail over technicality.
