NRL NRL Round 26, 2025 Discussion

[CWC]

Introduce a bloody time limit for the bunker to rule.

If you can conclusively find evidence within 30sec to a minute move on

Introduce the clock and I bet these TMOs will use howlers to overturn for the desired decision

 

[Leon Black]

Gus Gould — who pisses me off with his media spin to prop up the Dogs — actually nailed it. Why are we forever searching for reasons not to award a try? The game’s becoming a forensic lab instead of a sport.

And while we’re at it, are the officials confusing the Shetlands with the Denver Broncos? Because the Ponies are being allowed to fling the Steeden forward five metres (sometimes more!) without a whistle in sight. Absolute circus!!

 

[Leon Black]

Another forward pass… fuck me

 

[Mr Drag]

Too much to ask the Knights to win, so we be in 6th going to Manly!

 

[Beastmode]

Officials need to pull their head in

Amazing tries like we’ve seen being disallowed is a terrible look for the game

Better idea fuck the bunker or as T Power calls it the Banker/Wanker off!

 

[Beastmode]

50/50 calls should be ruled in favour of the attacking team

 

[The Salary sombrero 2]

What do you guys reckon? Do you think the Knights will galvanise after the AOB news earlier this week and show some grit or are sharks blowing em out of the water?

This sharks side is not very good ... they're clunky as fuck

 

[Wahs_Ultras]

Knights doing us a massive favour so far. Early days though

 

[Christchurch_Warrior]

If the Sharks keep playing like this everyone in the 8 will want to play them in the finals

Something we really lack is a halve who can kick a 40/20. Metcalf had a few in preseason but such a momentum shifter

 

[Noitall]

Crazy how many times Adam Gee needs to look to see Iro clearly lost the ball

I'm utterly baffled by that - his ball carrying arm is clearly on the ground in the tackle almost from the moment when he went to ground, what is gee even talking about when he says it's up? double movement all day every day - nrl needs to sort its shit

Even thought AFB grounding in his try was a bit iffy

yep

 

[enterthewarrior]

Well... 6th spot it is then.

 

[Wah's Up]

Our "For" total puts us in 11th place. Our against is way better showing that we have got half the equation (Defence) but just need to get our attack sorted.

Metcalf has a huge boot like SJ, probably part of reason he got the nod for 7.

Probably more of an accurate reflection of where we're actually at
