anzac test match canberra friday night

[KyleP]

Good match so far, Kiwi's have been a bit unlucky really.

Tactical kicking master Pritchard!

Still can't believe the first two no-tries. Show me where the ball left Glenn's hand? And Nightingale - I've never seen a penalty for that before in my life. Once a player touches the ball, he's fair game. Is Nightingale meant to predict Hodges will knock on?

And then the major and minor offence ... good grief ...

Have to Agree with The minor / Major infringement.
First infringement is what the rule Was i thought.

 

[KyleP]

To be fair they have changed the grounding rules this year, that would have been a try last year. But i've always thought it was bullshit how tries have been awarded with the slightest touch, should be grounded properly i think. The Nightingale one was a bit unlucky, and the major and minor offence thing was certainly bullshit.

thats a soft shouldercharge penalty, i know im whinging, but really....is rugby league going that soft?

Hope Lewis makes an impact like that for the blues

Well, Ashley Klein killed a great game of league tonight. Kiwis pretty much haven't touched the ball this half with him blowing the pea out of the whistle.

Definitely anything 50:50 has only gone one way. The Aussies are playing clinical footy this half though... the real Australia has now stood up

If it is anything like watching the Warriors, the ref will now proceed to even up the penalty count... works like clockwork every week!

The most disturbing thing about tonights game is definitely Greg Birds hair. Whats doing there?

Trust me you're not the only team...

I think we will be on the losing side, but really like the idea of Johnson playing with Foran - perfect amount of structure and flair. If only Johnson had that at the Warriors

32-12 to Aus

...just saying...

Imagine if that reffing performance happened in an Origin game, it would be in the paper for months!

 

[Nathraider]

yes the refs where to their usual standard with some bad calls. Was a great night for Canberra though and rl in our area. It would be good if we had the Anzac test here every year

Was in the Roo Crew section for this game and it was very considerate of the Kangaroos to score most of their tries down our end plus they warmed up in front of us, how many tries did the Kiwis have disallowed?.
