    Nah I'm happy with how it is and I dont believe any kicker will deliberately miss a field goal in the hope of a pen.

    Refs need to have the balls to call these pens for offside but also penalise any sleeper who moves off his line to take out an on-side defender, which also happens a lot.

    Hypothetically if a field goal is successful it's landing behind the goal posts which would mean a penalty from 10 out in front of the posts, no?

    Only if there's foul play on the kicker, not for offside. In which case yeah a pen right in front.

    betting against a tigers with brandon wakeham as halfback is always guaranteed money

    I’m fucking seething.
    We’re almost definitely out of the finals now.
    Because the cunt decide to give our opponents the game on a call that never gets called, and then as if to prove that point, they give our next opponents the game by not calling it.

    Why's Bennett persisting with Te Whare? He's too big. Putting him on the wing was peak stupidity, Tago just ran straight around him.
     
  10. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Yep. He's a 17 at best. Until he loses weight he shouldnt be starting.

    Jeez Cronulla cant get it done against the decent sides. Keeps happening over and over to the point where you'd call them pretenders.

    I'm thinking it's one eye on next year.

    Don't think I've ever seen an NRL match with odds as short/long as what Penrith V Bulldogs are this week.
     
  14. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    There's some absolute crackers this week.

    Warriors v Raiders
    Bunnies v Broncos
    Cowboys v Eels
    Sharks v Manly

    Even Tits v Roosters with their finals hopes both hanging by a thread.

    I like the underdogs in these games generally too. I feel like Raiders and Eels at >$3 are a bit long there.
     
  16. Toolman TR Man

    Warriors and Eels will win.

    The people who were in favour of sin bins for virtually all high tackles should be run out of town on a rail. Its a disgrace what youve done to the game.

    They have to get away from this crap surrounding optics. Something looks rough, so they end up penalising/reporting/sinbinning. Val's 1st point of contact on his hit was 100% on the upper-arm/shoulder. The whiplash is what made Moses' face go forward into the shoulder. And the idiot in the bunker says: "direct to the head" yet Moses doesn't go to the head-bin.

    Arthurs getting charged is ridiculous. How can he adjust when the guy suddenly drops to the ground following the pass? It does look bad when played in slo-mo, beaches it makes it look like a decision.
    Funny thing is, if Taffe holds onto the ball, he likely has an arm up to protect his own head.
