Roosters vs Sharks Match Thread

[TDK]

Our difference compared so souths is about +120 so I don't think our for and against is too much of an issue

For and against doesn't matter anymore, we are on same points as Souths, MP will come down to r26 if we don't lose to Titans.

Three defining refereeing incidents tonight:

1) The "Guerra strip" A crucial call, which they pulled out of thin air, that started the Sharks quick 3 try run.

2) The no try call. An absolute shocker. Tupou wasn't a decoy runner, he was part of the play. Just an appalling decision that had it gone our way, we would have won the match IMO. Would have been 8 down with 20 to go.

3) The video ref intervening with the RTS head slam. Instead of giving us a penalty, he changed the decision and gave the Sharks the feed. Someone should be stood down over this. I thought video refs were no longer allowed to change knock on calls. Its only happened twice all season - us against Warriors and us against Sharks.

Three critical calls.

And yet still 5 try to 4 despite that first half.

We're twice the side the Sharks are. We'll be fine.

[Jacks Fur Coat]

Ok...a few points.

Yes the officials gave us some shit calls.

The peptide kids really wanted it tonight.

Gallen is approaching burgess inglis Luke hatred status. a genuine ****wit.

We will learn plenty from that and god help Gold Coast.

SBW please stay another year in league and don't let em force you out.

11-10 to us

We win the penalty count and still get ****ed over by refs, they are even better then I thought, Gallen should have been sin binned for his 3 or 4 consecutive penalties and RTS scored that easy, Gordon should have never scored as someone dropped but the Great Henry Sayonara and Ashley Blind missed it, although they ruled knock on and then changed it, they also didn't let FPN put a few on Gallen.

Tupou 100% couldn't just disappear, its not like SBW couldn't have offloaded it with a hand on him

Not that I advocate it, but we could still lose to the Titans, and so long as we beat the Vermin in Rd26 we would still win the MP on for/against.
In other words it will all come down to beating the vermin in the final round, regardless of what happens with the Tits.

Quote from Robbo in the Press Conference.

"We weren't good enough tonight... but that wasn't good enough from the refs."

Haha I had a good laugh at that.

[liver1971]

The winning streak was with our best players on deck most of the time.
Souths big forwards will run all over us...we need Kennedy back.
So too the Storm, so too Manly.

We have no hope of beating any of them with the team that played tonite.
There must be major changes.

Why is the fool not banned, mods ???
He is clearly a troll or maybe he has brain damage ?
Anyone ??

Haha I had a good laugh at that.

Almost as good as last year (at Shark Park?) when Mose was penalised for using too much force in a tackle...

Funnily enough I thought the exact same thing.

I don't understand how they can change the scrum feed when they look at our mistakes but when they strip it they still get the feed

I thought video refs were no longer allowed to change knock on calls. Its only happened twice all season - us against Warriors and us against Sharks.

4) SBW regathers a kick on the line and stays on the ground to be shoved back into goals with a second effort. what ever happened to a player being held when lying on the ground as soon as a player from the opposition puts a hand on them?
4 critical calls.

And yet still 5 try to 4 despite that first half.

what a ****en joke

5) SKD not holding onto the the F***ing ball. He is a major liability. Not taking away but the shark that scored also chicken winged right in front of the ref! FFSAnd yet still 5 try to 4 despite that first half.
