Melbourne Storm kick off in the clash with the Dragons at Wollongong. Very poor crowd again. It has been raining in the 'Gong.

8th min TRY DRAGONS to Jeremy Latimore, just crashes over one pass off dummy half. The Dragons player clearly didn't stand before playing the ball. Jai Field converts.

Dragons 6-0

Great, Ben **** Cummins

The softest 'escorting a player off the ball' in the history of rugby league.

HALF TIME

Melbourne Storm 8
St George Illawarra 6

after the Storm kicked a penalty goal in the 38th minute.

Dragons kick off to start the second half in Wollongong.

Dufty picked up and dragged back into his in goal. I'm sure I've seen teams penalised for doing exactly that.

Sure - Dufty should be penalised for a voluntary tackle but they don't penalise that ever but I'm sure as soon as a defender touches the player it's held and you can't pick them up, or drag them back into the in goal or into touch.

That's gotta be forward, doesn't it?

62nd min TRY STORM to Jahrome Hughes. They're even falling over and they still score under the posts! Cameron Smith converts.

It was certainly more deserving than the first half one.

Haha, they never give penalties in the last 10 when the scores are even, unless it’s for The Storm.

Origin-hit Storm edge past Dragons in the wet

Some poor discipline from the Dragons. That game was there to win if they could control the ball. 5th tackle plays were appalling.

You get bias, you get bias.. everybody gets bias

Sent from my CPH1831 using Tapatalk

But not in equal proportions.

So it's only unrecognised bias if the officials make a mistake in favour of *checks notes*… the roosters, storm or broncos??

Everything else is just a mistake?

You’re being silly now. Unrecognised bias doesn’t rule out the possibility of incorrect decisions being made against star teams or athletes. Overall however, the star teams and athletes receive more favoured treatment in officiating.

Ok, so let me get this right. Just bear with me...

When the dragons player failed to get to his feet to play the ball and they scored a try that's NOT unrecognised bias, but when the storm players dragged a dragons player into the in goal it IS unrecognised bias… correct??
