Bunker overturns onfield call of no try for double movement. Geez I'd be blowing up deluxe of that went against us. He clearly reached out with a 2nd effort.

Really? He was tackled and ball carrying arm hits the ground. His body remains in the field of play but reaches out to plant the ball. Classic Double movement. At worst case you support the on field call.

I agree. While there was definitely momentum, he also made an obvious effort to promote the ball, even if he only reached out slightly. The only justification would be the bunker must have deemed that the momentum took him over the line anyway so the supposed second effort was irrelevant.

Definitely a double movement IMO

Channel 9 really have to turn down the on field mikes in this game. Some real potty mouths out there today.

**** load of ****

Thoughts on that penalty try guys?

Again I’m happy with the decision, even though he dropped it. He was put under undue pressure due to illegally being held back.

Tom Trbojevic goes into overdrive as Manly power past Dragons

Trbojevic scored a late try, churned out 334 metres with two line breaks, nine tackle busts, five offloads and a try assist in a dazzling return performance since injuring his hamstring at the same venue two months ago.

I bet if the score was closer they would have taken the softer option and sinbinned Cronk instead.

Oh well, at least we were in 3rd place for 3 days.

Is this a new trend?

I don't normally watch a lot of non Raiders footy so not sure... Doesn't seem to be in our playbook despite having good edges...

Dogs did it vs Storm with good effect

Yeah it's worked a few times. I'm just wondering if it's been a tactic all year and I've just missed it or it is relatively recent and done to combat a certain type of team or defence.
