Other Games [Round 4, 2024]

Apparently most of the coaches voted for the B & W rule rather than officials making decisions whether players are fast enough to get there to make the tackle

So explain the Marty vs Panthers ruling that Annesley said was fine

Haha, you'll have to check with Annesley on that one on Monday, I'm sure he'll have a good explanation

With one of his legendary political-speak lines like… “it’s only obstruction when an obstruction has occurred”.

Also....."no 2 situations are identical"

Players make mistakes too

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Trust me , Cleary out , changed pick.

Shoulda known I guess !!

 

[HK_Eagle]

What’s our read on this game. No Cleary. Have the Rorters been poor, or have the Pennie’s been that good?

 

[Rackets]

The overrated chooks...haha our reserve grade team almost beat them, albeit it was a trial game but panthers exposing them everywhere. Interesting to hear what tomato head will have to say in their presser.

Defence from panthers has been outstanding which has forced the errors from the Rorters.

Panthers have done the basics in attack, second phase play in the middle is what’s needed to get on top of the Panthers, we will need Tent and Guaca to get their offloads going.

 

[Simonmyers11]

Penrith showing why they will be hard to beat again. Their structure in defense is so good. they never panic and just number up and slide together.

Manly needs to learn to do this. As soon as Garrick goes back to the wing and Paulo to reserves the better chance we have of winning games

Yep, nothing to do with “speed kills” or whatever other garbage excuse some make. We need to work as a unit with an effective strategy in defense. Beyond that… do what we can to avoid arbitrary rule interpretations.

 

[LeonardCohen]

Penrith played at a different speed to the Roosters and their energy levels were off the charts. It’s easy to number up and slide in defence when you’re completely destroying the opposition in the middle. The Chooks did everything a yard slower because they were gassed from Penrith’s line speed in d and energy with the ball.

Scary good performance from Penrith without a couple of their big guns.

The scoreline certainly didn't reflect how dominant the panffers were

Much like our scoreline last weekend didn’t reflect our dominance, but perhaps reflected our stupidity.

Blobbo the Oracle will explain it all, for i have spoken.

 

[The Who]

Another week another Ludicrous decision from the Bunker Bozo.
Fortunately it was against Easts, which means NRL officials may take some notice when Uncle Nick calls them to complain.

 

[wombatgc]

I liked Ivans response to the obstruction b&w rule. At first he didn’t want anything to do with the bunker, but the journos kept at him, and finally he said whenever we‘ve brought in b&w rulings they have all failed. Everyone of them.

 

[globaleagle]

Agree, it looked dodgy and deserved much more scrutiny. Farrrkkk I hate the perceived need to manufacture a competition when teams are getting smashed.

That try sounds like a square up for the obstruction no - try.

It's like they realised it was stupid, so simply gave them the try

'allegedly'

 

[Carl]

Re. the obstruction call, shouldn't there be some onus on both players to keep out of each other's way? The play comes back in and Edward's has tackled a player without the ball.

 

[Pete W]

Robinson after the game using words like 'grips and tightnes' when referring to Penrith's superior tackling. This sums up our major issue in the ruck. No doubt Penrith's line speed is the best in the business, even without their star players, but also they all hit and stick and really dominate the tackle. Bellamy knew this as an assistant at Brisbane, and pretty much invented the wrestle. Premierships are now won by jiu-jitsu practitioners
