I don't always get a chance to watch it but Annesley does a weekly debrief on the games over the weekend with speed of the ruck stats. And as GE has mentioned before the Raiders were highlighted as a 'slow' team leading into the Sea eagles game where we were heavily penalised.

Storm have left last week's effort in the sheds. Off their game tonight.

Common sense says try.
So if a team gets their biggest player to run as a decoy full steam into the 2 markers on the tryline and the dummy half walks through the gap and scores, that's ok?

I’m just explaining what I saw and how video refs saw it too.

In your fantasy scenario, did the defenders make a decision to tackle the decoy runner?

If you considered any of the analysis presented by the referees themselves, you'd give yourself an uppercut. Or 20. The referees themselves have pointed out that the Storm has been one of the teams slowing the play the ball (based on their metrics) in their weekly review, as presented by referees boss Graham Annesley. And that they haven't been being penalised. It had to sort of click with them at some point...

Whether they're attempting to make the tackle or not shouldn't be the deciding factor. This isn't gridiron, you can't send a couple of 150kg blockers at the d line creating gaps.

Maybe a bit harsh that penalty.

You can be sure Melbourne will get plenty more penalties, I like seeing them go for the points here

That error from the Tigers last set was just atrocious timing. They Complete that set and it’s nearly game over.

Benji threw the ball and Munster threw his arm out and knocked it down.

Definitely correct call.

That is terrible defence from the Tigers. I was hoping my failure to tip would result in an away team win, and a tip by default...

Tough result for Tigers. Almost did enough. I was going to back them at big odds. Glad I didn't.

Melbourne Storm steal 24-22 win over tough Wests Tigers with late match-winner

Storm centre Will Chambers pulled Melbourne back from the brink with a late try to hand victory to Craig Bellamy's men, when all night it was the Wests Tigers that seemed to have the upper hand.

They played well enough to win but just dropped off in the last 10 minutes. Good tactics to hit the edges instead of just hitting it up through the middle. Shifting the Storm forwards around. Kicking well away from Ado-Carr and Munsters side. Channelling a lot of attack at Croft.

Nah, you’re right, I’m just a jerk... it’s clearly the referees at fault, as always

So everything I’m saying is rubbish, is it?

On a side and completely unrelated note, anyone see how the Storm closed out that last few minutes after they scored the winning try? Absolutely did it clinically and to perfection.

But yeah, nah, they’re only where they are due to referees and their unconscious blah blah blah

Mate, one of us is allowing their preconceived notions and biases dictate what happened in tonight’s game, the other one of us is playing what they see before them, exactly how it played out... I’ll allow you to decide who was who

You'll know when there's an official judgement of a moderator. I'm responding as someone who I thought was a friend... is consistently belittling me.
