Yes, I said this in another post. The ref said it was an accident and still gave a crucial penalty. I've heard of accidental offside, but I've never heard of an accidental foul.

It looked bad in slow mo, but how many times do players cop elbows & forearms in the face etc in matches? It was completely accidental and a wrong call.

It only looked bad in slow-mo when they showed it from after Maloney fell off the tackle. When they showed the full thing it was pretty obvious that it wasn't a penalty. Oh well, no point whinging now, said at the time it was a terrible decision that could cost us and in the end it did.

maloney stopped after thier player got obstructed which you are supposed to but maxell still gave a penalty. he makes me sick

Mate I %100 agree with you. They made it look bad with those slow mo replays, but in normal speed it just looked like an accidental play in a CONTACT sport, play on.

It's a penalty every day of the week if you are wearing a particular jersey. On the back of the ficticious 'double-movement' no try to Casty, it was a blatant stitch up.

the nrl want a team from the west in the finals, bingo

Penalty was ridiculous. Like the Casty penalty a few seconds earlier they are making up their own rules. Next thing they will be penalising headclashes as "accidental headbutts".

There is a common trait here they ref us decently against the good sides and differently aginst other sides.refs are not supposed to get personal.

What did everybody think of the sbw strip that got us into the position for that play?

Another ref screwup. If the call is held and the players don't hear it then let them go back and play the ball. Either way it is a better result than back to back dodgy penalties against us. 3 ref errors in the space of a couple minutes not good enough.

[Guest]

Yup.

They scored from that set after the penalty. Absolute joke.

Then the Casty no try. Bigger joke.

Mini was also pushed out after that sliding catch. I think they scored from this set as well(?). This one's probably 50-50 as I've seen some penalised and some let go. But we should NEVER expect to get a 50-50 call our way.
