Cross-Forum-Discussion Round 11 chat

[Dan]

Things are starting to get real

 

[globaleagle]

Thank goodness there was no cross forum bet last week!

 

[Chip and Chase]

I'll be interested to see how the Ponies go without ARey tonight. I think they might have a game on their hands. Will Milf have a point to prove ?

 

[Red Baron]

What exactly is this?

Sounds like Raiders will be fielding a reserve grade team this week with I believe 10 players in doubt because of a flu going through the side.

For ****s sake. I've tipped Rabbitohs to win but by 13-18.

Do the neutrals in this thread think the Knights were robbed? Manly? NZ?

POSITION VACANT: Someone to replace Morkel as Digital Artist. Must be able to make signature of attractive football players once every 3-5 years. Will be paid in likes from time to time.

 

[Chunkytuna]

No.

Nope. Broncos way too good. Looking forward to having cobbo outside turbo and shu.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Hate to say it , but the Broncos are looking like the real deal this year , top 4 bound maybe !!

I certainly do.
The Gaigai try was legit. That would have put Newcastle six points in front. They dominated the first half, and the match was set to go down to the wire when The Bunker made another terrible decision that broke the Knights. Remember, if The Bunker had not overruled the Gaigai try then the Knights would have been ahead 18-14 at the time of the second mistake by The Bunker.

No, they are looking brilliant at the moment but let's see how they regroup after the inevitable flat spot, which probably begins with origin. They got the rub of the green last night otherwise would have been in a desperate struggle against the lowly knights.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Matt Lodge immediate release... bit a surprise?? The merry go round shows no sign of slowing.

I tipped raiders without this knowledge. ****.

One by one, ticking timebombs won. It's not the secrets of the government that's keeping you dumb...

And that's the thing, it may have ended up a big win to the Broncs but when games are in the balance, the bunker's decisions are even more crucial.

The two instances you mention, also a couple of rulings on strips - I still don't know how the Bunker can determine if the player had intent to strip the ball or was just making a tackle? There were a couple last night that looked similar to me but were ruled differently.

Also the Oates try that he scored from the kick, if they wanted to check Gagai's put down then why not that, I'm not convinced he grounded it properly...but we'll never know because they didn't bother to check.

All tried are reviewed anyway, if the bunker didn't see an issue with Oates put down then it would've intervened. I wasn't sure on the first view if it was clean but the reverse angle replay showed it was.

[The Who]

We only have a "sometimes" Bunker. Yes, all tries are reviewed but only the final play. There could have been an obvious mistake in the lead-up yet The Bunker has to remain mute. So, what's the point of having Big Brother allowing a no-try to be awarded?
Sometime Big Brother intervenes and tips the ref off about an incident, by only on a whim. If The Bunker was an infallible bit of technology then it could be accepted. But it is nothing more than a person watching a TV screen. . . .
Just like all of us, really.

It took the bunker quite a few replays to confirm the try. They checked it.

What's the point? Why, it's the notorious mute point of course!

Try not to screw us over Manly... a win over the Eels works for us. But if you have to lose, please make it a close one and only lose by 5 points or less
