2018 NRL Round 11: Teams and Game Day

[yeh raiders]

Was just a terrible, terrible decision. You can even see on the replay, Sims changes his movement at the last moment before the contact, which results in the head clash.

Every other head clash is called play on. Why is this one any different?!

Oh right, it’s at S()ncorp Stadium....

[the bone]

Fatty “you watch.. they’ll come out on Monday with some bs reason...”

Hahahahahahahaha

love the fat. He says it how it is

When the Raiders get **** on a call like that, not even im going to defend it.

[the bone]

It leaves such a sour taste in the mouth. It was a really good game up until that point

How many games will the Broncos win this season following a contentious refereeing decision in their favour?

Let’s see, off the top of my head we’ve got:
* Tigers
* Bulldogs
* Roosters

All decided by referees from what I saw.

I’d have to look back at Cowboys and Rabbitohs, don’t remember what happened there.

[gerg]

Sutton should never referee another Broncos game, but the NRL will continue to use him because to not use him would almost be an admission that it is an issue. At least that is the 'logic' they will use.
Against the Tigers, I honestly thought that game was headed for a draw. It was poor conditions and neither side looked like kicking a field goal.
Against the Bulldogs was just plain robbery on a few crucial decisions.
Last night just another massive leg up at a critical point of the game.

The Broncos should be next to us on the ladder.

[gangrenous]

In the Tigers game both sides had already landed a field goal though.

[gerg]

It just felt like one of those games that was headed for a draw. Pretty boring game which probably didn't deserve an outright winner or loser.

[edwahu]

I thought the Broncos deserved to win tbh. The Roosters were very lazy and basically Raidered the game.

[Begbie]

Curtis Scott, my new favourite non-Raider in the NRL.

[rolhai]

And now issues with the 10 in the bin for two manly players. Coming back on the field nearly 2 minutes early!

Didn’t watch the game, but was Curtis Scott sent off for a punch?

Threw 2 punches when Walker wasn't really in a position to defend himself

Ahk, Sounds fair enough then.

Dylan Walker’s face looks like it has been stung by a dozen hornets.

[Botman]

If installed as supreme overlord of the NRL one of my first orders of business would be to institute a law that says anyone landing a clean punch on Dylan Walker would be awarded a penalty try in their favour.

Cowboys supremely Raidered that game..

Force drop out with 1 to go and still lose.

NRL can't count to 10, shock me

[Coastalraider]

Aparantly the NRL don't control the 10 minutes, a team representative is in charge, and one was not supplied for this match from Manly...

A temporarily suspended player shall re-enter the playing field when permitted to do so by the Referee. The Referee shall be guided by the timekeeper if one is employed, otherwise the referee will determine the end of the suspension. This player is NOT to be regarded as a substitute

Yep I follow, but that doesn't state who supplies the time keeper. I think Frank Panitzi was filling the role for Melbourne, that's why he was on the sideline and instantly in the refs face with a stopwatch. Below is the quote I read from the NRL:

The NRL issued a statement post-match saying it would investigate:

"The NRL will conduct a full review of the timing of the dismissals and the process.

"The responsibility of the timing for sin bins is held by the clubs, although in this instance, it appears there were no club supplied sin bin operators present at the venue."

You've got my vote.

But we need to add a few more names.

Penalty try..tick.

[TongueFTW]

I suggest every NRL club puts a statue of Curtis Scott outside their home ground. Was great to see that grub Walker get what he has deserved for years.

[the bone]

It was great watching Melbourne be beaten in a spiteful encounter in front of their home crowd.

Curtis Scott, my new favourite non-Raider in the NRL.

he did what just about every NRL player wants to do.

What I didn't get is he was sent off for punching but Korisau only got a sin bin for his attempted king hit.

[-PJ-]

If Manly are to be punished for shabby timekeeping they should forfeit next week.

Fair I say...

Suspensions for Korisau and Walker would be nice.

Walker has a fractured eye socket

Start next weeks game with 11 men.

Walker out and API suspended.

This weekend goes further proving Andrew Johns and his Merry Band of Brainless Idiots are just that with their referee whining.

How many winning team players have been sin binned this week?! Yet they’re still winning. Teams are still willing to push it and lose a player for 10 mins. It’s worth it because they hold the opposition out often and then can look forward to all manner of level up penalties throughout the next 10 minutes when it’s their turn to have momentum. The penalties are often more useful as they aren’t just repeated 2nd tackle penalties when your already in the red zone and gain no territorial advantage.

The refs still aren’t cracking down hard enough and fast enough for mine.

Some good points here. The referees don’t know properly how and when to penalise to ensure a fair and exciting game for both teams and fans.

The Sharks last week knew when it was worth risking a penalty compared to giving up a try.

Stop a quick play the ball a metre off the try line and push up offside out wide to stop a spread out wide following a half break. Great rule breaking tactic that worked for them.

That the refs didn’t penalise those clear offsides last week demonstrates their inability to ensure a fair and enjoyable game that encourages ball movement and try scoring.

As for Joey Johns, great on field football brain, but no off field understanding of cause and effect for what he preaches.

Walker has a fractured eye socket

And he deserves it.

The way he carried on at GIO a few years ago is just unacceptable...

Sounds pretty stupid if true. The rules don't say who supplies the timekeeper, only that the ref can delegate to them. For a professional competition, it can't possibly be a club participating in the game supplying them.

Sounds pretty archaic to me as well mate, but at the beginning of today's telecast of the Raiders game they made mention that the refs had pulled aside each teams timekeepers to refresh the rules after last nights debacle, so there must be something there.

To be honest, if a team is involved in any way in the policing of this, I'm frankly amazed we don't see controversy more often.

Another big tick for the professionalism of the NRL.

[gerg]

Wayne Bennett has launched a fiery tirade at the NRL over the match review committee's failure to charge Dylan Napa, accusing the game of having an anti-Brisbane bias.
