Why would the commentators choose to be that biased and blind. It was so obvious that Reynolds pressured the Storm player so well that he knocked it into Reynolds.

Instead of raving about that awesome try saving pressure defensive play, they whinge and moan that it should have been a try. It was so clear on 2 of the 3 replays and Wally knew it - he predicted the no try, but not without a tone of wishing it was not the case.

Why would you wish a try that wasn't? Because of bias. Why not commentate how great a try it would have been but full credit to the Dogs and the pressure play by Reynolds.

The commentators are missing opportunity after opportunity to rave about who does well because they are so busy being upset things are not going their way. Disgusting commentating.

Then the reckless leading into Reynolds with the knees by Slater. Yes in fast motion it is hard to control, but it was still reckless. The commentators were happy with leading in with the knees? Pathetic.

Gould was so eager to proclaim a turning point after the drop goal, why does he miss the obvious turning points for the Dogs as they shut down the game? lol

What a win! I love it when we win despite the naysayers - makes it all the sweeter! :grinning:

Gould was a complete w@nker with his comments. Basically the refs got it 100% correct and he is still blaming them. Ridiculous commentary.
He is terrified already of potentially having to play us in a couple of weeks!

Funny thing was they kept going on in the games yesterday that the correct decision was the most important thing.

If it was us, you would be squawking, the game has become too technical with three refs, simply because there is big money involved, I would rather a quick decision.

This was clearly a knock on. GUS can't help himself and it is clear he still holds a grudge against the dogs. When we were beating souths he was bagging our style of play. Today we were enterprising in attack so he couldn't harp on about the wrestle as much, so he attacks the input of the video ref saying the game is overreferreed. The truth is the refs got all the calls right...but he just wants to have a whinge. What a delusional prick.

Yeah, I knew we would cop the worst referees of the finals series so far but what can we do about it lol

It was a knock on no doubt, it was a forced error with the defence pushing up, but the correct call for sure....... and the boys knew it, hence Ennis getting right to the ref and letting him know.

No controversy to it at all, if the media wants to find controversy, just check on the injuries out of the game and see if maybe one team having been effectively beat in just every aspect of the game resorted to getting grubby and cheat their way out of it (wouldn't be the first time...... I remember a worm from the same team making a claim that had a Bulldog sit out a start of a season).

**** 'em, they can go on holidays now, we have a new game to focus on.
