Panthers are ripe if the Titans can hold the ball

 

[Noitall]

Erin Clark looks strong carrying the ball and defends well

 

[chrisnz]

if theres any truth to the erin rumor think we got a solid upgrade on jazz was already of that opinion but after really watching him this game he is very solid

The six again has to go. It's such an abusable tool for the ref that pretty much rigs momentum.

They can pull it out, willy nilly, with no challenge and no repercussion.

It's gotta go.

I think there was a sign after the game when JFH was congratulated by EC.

It appeared to me that they were acknowledging each other as future teammates

Agree. Hate it. Most of the time you don’t know what it’s for. With the game on the line, id much rather the penalty and 2 points than a 6 again on the first tackle thanks ref!

This and ensuring equal penalty counts are ridiculous.

I get the ideal intent behind this stuff, but it very rarely works out in the real world. Realistically, how likely is it that teams will perform the exact same amount of offenses in a game? Very low.

But that's okay, right? What they actually mean by this stuff is to show they are keeping an equal eye on both teams, hey?

So what are they saying? they don't have enough officiators? They don't have enough knowledge of the rules? They refuse to call all offenses committed in the game? They're too nervous to?

The officiating is going to shit and I'm not sure I can blame the refs for this. Feels like management priotizing passing the buck to the workers and not wanting to make decisions themselves.

Go the Phins, I live in Newcastle region, despise the 2 headed Knights fans and their dumb ass coach.

 

[Worried2Death]

Hammer and Farnworth could be the difference 2nd half

 

[Evil_Mush]

I do like that the last game of the regular season determines the final spot in the 8, where whoever wins gets it but if it's a draw Raiders snatches it

Has been a tight contest so far, Knights obviously have the home crowd advantage, but lots of gamebreakers in Dolphins too, hopefully they can pull it out for their maiden finals appearance.

 

[Wah's Up]

Really don't care who wins this but as an unbiased Wahs supporter the ref and bunker seem heavily biased towards Newcastle

 

[Naumaifooty]

Is it me or does Sean O'Sullivan do too much? Seems way more involved than he should be.

 

[Worried2Death]

Farnworth was no match for Bradman Best, he's no Pompey let's face it.
