    Watching Newcastle play is unbearable. The commentators either wank over Pearce or Ponga for the whole 80mins.

    How the actual fuck do they call that a knock back for Radleys try?
     
  3. Magic AJ Parker

    Butcher?

    I thought they called it right, it went back off his hand onto his knee.

    But then off his kne it went forward. I don't know the intricacies of the laws that well but I'm sure that constitutes a knock on... may be wrong though.

    Yeah Butcher sorry.

    The only way that ruling makes sense if if they say he’s kicked it, with his knee.
    Otherwise it’s a knock on.

    If you make a run and the dummy half throws a bullet into your chest and you drop it onto your knee. It’s a knock on.

    This is exactly the same situation.

    Yeh it's been a knock on for as long as I've watched the game.

    I just didn't agree with the commentators that it went forward off his hand and the video ref may be aware of some obscure ruling that I'm not.

    It was just so blatant and the VR even talked us through it "knocked back off hand, onto his knee" I just can't fathom why else he would've ruled it wasn't a knock on unless A) he seriously is that useless and should never ever be in the bunker ever again or; B) Knows some obscure rule that I just don't.

    Will be interesting to see what they say on it come Monday. Just lucky it had no bearing on the end result.

    Nah Butchers try is fine. Backwards off the hand. Doesn’t matter where it goes after that.
     
  7. Tartmaster AJ James

    I just don’t get how they call basically every drop ball a knock on, but not that.
     
  8. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Yeah 99 times out of 100 that’s pulled back straight away and no one minds. But technically it is play on.
     
  9. Tartmaster AJ James

    That’s just not a high tackle.
     
  10. Sultan Pepper HG Emm

    Thoughts on the kikau binning in the pandas game?
     
  11. Tartmaster AJ James

    Ridiculous
     
  12. Farhat AM Farhat

    It’s not even penalty worthy.
     
  13. Toolman TR Man

    I said the quote below last week in retaliation to.. well I forget now but someone else who got binned for a late hit. They've already started doing it, thankfully that game was already done and dusted and the commentary tore into them for the shit call.

    'I didn't mind that sin binning, it wasn't late it was just a cheap shot.. but fuck they're going to produce some dud calls with this new hard line ruling. They already screw it up all the time when calling it just a penalty when the defender isn't late at all but already in motion, now they're going to make it worse.'

    Geez.... that ball had to touch the ground. I know Solomona got his hand under the ball but it had to touch even on the side.
     
  15. jazman84 JM Eightyfour

    Yep. I bet the bunker makes their judgement while watching a slow-mo too. Retards.
     
  16. Magic AJ Parker

    Brian Kelly is class.

    Needs to get himself to a proper club.
     
  17. Cribbage RG Cribb

    This is the most Easts fan possible post.

    Good player in shit team = bad? You sicken me tbh.
     
  18. Magic AJ Parker

    I just don't think he'll ever reach his full potential at a club like the Titans.

    I had very similar feelings about Shaun Johnson for most of his career.

    Less a shit team, more so a shit club.

    Tigers were linked to Brian Kelly for ages last year.

    We got Robert Jennings instead :)

    Trbojevic will be 1B to Tedesco soon.
