I thought that was Lawton whose arm slipped up high on Mitchell?

Happy to see Aloiai take responsibility for his error, but we made plenty of other mistakes throughout the game so there's no way the loss was on him. Win as a team, lose as a team, and move on to the next game.
Very very well said and 💯 % correct

Okay, I thought the penalty was for Aloiai pushing Mitchell's face?
I thought he spoke really well at that presser and showed what sort of a man he really is. Owned the mistake and didn't try to blame anyone else. I know people on here give him a hard time but I reckon he's a real good guy to have on this team - and this latest episode has just confirmed that for me. Great job Josh. Looking forward to you ripping in next week with renewed vigour.
In actual fact no-one's arm slipped high or even touched Mitchell's face. Even the commentators said that was a 'very tough call'. and for Fox to be saying that you can translate it to we were totally ripped off!!!

Yes he did, but that had nothing to do with the penalty.
What did you expect him to say? It was a schiit pass.
If they as Weekes about the pass. He will also take responsibility for the schiit pass.
It's called being a team.

What was the penalty for? It didn't appear to be a high tackle (or was Aloiai offside at the previous play the ball?)
An imaginary friend..?
Well according to the commentary it was for a high tackle - but I don't see any contact high at all. Aloiai's actions were after the penalty had been blown. And even then, they were extremely minor. Certainly not warranting a penalty.

I don’t have any, real or imaginary, so I wouldn’t know.

Thank you. I should have checked before commenting. The penalty was for a dangerous tackle by Lawton. However, as you say, there is no evidence of a dangerous tackle. Thus, we have a game where a blatant non penalty is given and a blatant non forward pass is ruled - both at crucial times. One has to wonder about the competence (or bias) of the referee. These guys are paid $300,000 per year!

Done. Shouldn't have long to wait to see who is elevated to fill the other vacancy in the Top 30.
