Test match discussion

[Chip and Chase]

Surprise, surprise, Billy doesn't get a mention for his laziness/lack of heart/stupidity....instead commentary centres around a phantom "shoulder charge" that knocked poor Billy off balance.

Kiwis can't take a trick tonight. 3 disallowed tries...all the right decisions though so they can't complain.

Surely it should have been called knock on Hodges though, penalty was a stupid call

Agree. I meant No Try was right call, penalty was a joke.

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

I can't believe the armchair ride Slater gets, he consistently makes big errors in big games

 

[AshfieldBazza]

Finally got one!!!

No question about that

 

[manlyfan76]

He got penalised for not allowing Australia to re gather their knock on. WTF?

 

[torana355]

I know heaps of Aussies cheering for the kiwis tonight, apart from Choc I struggle to support anyone else in the Aussie team, go the kiwis and hope Foz has a blinder

Yep im cheering for the Kiwis bigtime. The Aus team is basically the QLD team which i hate.

Absolutely.

Didn't fight to get into a position to make the tackle either, just threw his hands up as soon as Nightingale made contact. Should have been a try IMO, would be blowing up if that got called against Manly.

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Best half of footy I've seen all year - great attack from the Kiwis and strong Australian defence. Really enjoying it.
And, if anyone ever doubted it, proof positive that Fozzy should be the next Manly captain.

 

[Fluffy]

Kiwis getting robbed by the refs, better team in the first half should be up by 6 or 12.

Yet another slater fark up to let the kiwis score.

Foz having a blinder, as is Hoffman and Bromich.

If the Kiwis get the even up they will come home comfortably

 

[voicefromthehill]

And there's Mr Pleasepunchmeinthehead, and remember please gamble responsibly, as long as it is with me

and like the qlders of the last 2 years they are only being kept in the game by the refs

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Kiwis should be in front, Fozzie leading them around the park well, should at least be 12-6 now, bloody Klein

Totally agree, it should be 12-6 without a doubt. Hope the Kiwis get up in the second half. Hopefully Foran can have a cracker and bring that confidence into our game against the rabbits.

 

[voicefromthehill]

Billy again.....

 

[manlyfan76]

Why didn't Luke finish that tackle on slater?

 

[Wolfpack]

Ugh, this refereeing is woeful.

If that's a shoulder charge you may as well start blowing penalties for just about every tackle in the NRL.

 

[Chip and Chase]

That shoulder charge rule is a joke. They need to review it. If the hit is put on Slater it is play on....same goes if it is a head high. The refs are losing touch with the spirit of the game.

 

[Fluffy]

Maria Heargraves has gone missing 22m in the first half

 

[voicefromthehill]

Aussies look to be panicking

 

[Fluffy]

another crap call

Did Klein just say I want a try?
