Other Games [Round 8, 2021]

I couldn't figure out why The Faders received seven six-agains and Souffs nil. That just seems like the ref was biased. I'm surmising that most of them were for Souffs being offside, but you never know.

Weird game. Ruck infringements 7-0 Raiders way, penalties 8-1 Souths way. Funny how it evened out....
 
I thought some of Souths tries had a forward pass, but no one seemed bothered.

The Raiders disallowed try for Benji getting obstructed was a joke. He milked it. Funny how 'milking it' doesn't get rewarded at other times.

The Raiders last 'no try' was even more of a joke. Never mind the NRL's guide rules about obstructions. Surely the first bullet point says "IS ANYONE OBSTRUCTED? NO. Award a try."

In any case if there was obstruction, it was on the wrong side of the ball. A defender can't be obstructed if the ball carrier is actually closer to the try line than the defender! That's ridiculous. Mal Meninga won a test match by clearing out defenders who were behind the ball carrier.
