does the nrl owe cowboys a rematch...

[Tommy Smith]

Lol @ the Cowboys.

I find it amusing that the media have rallied around them the way they have. At 18-12 they should have gone on with the job.

I didn't hear anyone cry for us to this degree - including our captain and coach - after Brett Morris' farcical GF into touch incident which led to a try.

[Cockadoodledoo]

we can only act after the fact, the mistake was made, fix the mistake then, (ok they missed it) hence halftime, it then weighs up the sharks "not putting up a bomb" against the cowboys losing the game altogether. Shit happens? Nah, that's just a major advantage to cronulla that should have been rescinded asap.

Where do you draw the line? When Morris was a metre over the sideline and they scored off the next play, do you take that try away? What if it was in the second half? Do you take the points away and instead they lose? If they did not get the try in the first place, the complexion of the game would change and instead of defending a lead they would have played more attacking football to take the lead.

If the Cowboys played decent football this season ... they could have finished in the top 4 and had a 2nd chance. For Thurston to come out and sook like he has, saying that it cost them the game ... PUHLEASE!

Are kids today as gullible as I think, or just lazy.

3 replays a week, at Parra.? They would of all happened at the bar.

[Jacks Fur Coat]

No rematch...they only had to defend one extra tackle.

A wrong call on a line dropout decision results in an extra six bogus tackles and is much worse.

[tri-hard]

Yes! and they also need to give us a replay for '72 and 2010.

Haha
Yeah, but you have to use the same players.
Now 2010 maybe not so bad, but we'd have to dig up all the 1972 players from both sides to be a true replay !

Who cares!

[roosterproud]

Who cares!

give them a $100.k and a concrete pill and get the cows planning for the 2014 semis.no time for a replay, all that will do is give melb a walking the park game.

I would be pissed off if I had money on the cows and lost it because tomyy knows what people want

Unfortunately (and, in some cases, literally) true.

Oops.
Yes poor choice of words on my behalf ?

Nothing you have said is wrong here. I'm just suggesting something more tangible than what if's, if (lol) they had of done something at half time, then there would have been a full 40mins for both teams to get square. I think its a lot fairer than eliminating the cows from the comp, "wether they had their chance" or not.

But you are right, where do you draw the line? I think that is the real problem here (now lets get conspirating haha) the line does not get drawn and can open up the adjudication to corruption (now im losing it) some poster even went so far last night to say that we will start losing players to the bin if "the powers that be" cant keep us out of the way or souths being 2013 premiers.

Talking to mum last night, how close are going to sail to the wind, with the bias? Can we make it thru our final two games with so much against us? It feels like one team taking on the entire NRL.

I think it can be done

I'm sorry are you referring to me? I should hope not. I won't dismiss information from an older person especially who knows more about the eels history than myself.
