NRL corruption caught on live tv

[The DoggFather]

Thats the thing though bro, tigers were paying $9, you'd get the odd person saying put $20 or $50 for shits and giggles, if it happens it happens

But it wouldn't match the outlay of serious gamblers who all would've taken cowboys

Thats why I don't believe that the gambling agencies influence results in sports. Favourites winning is worse off for them

It's just a shame where stupid ***** keep making stupid mistakes that look like match fixing.

Honestly, you can't blame people for thinking it's rigged.

100%, although I explained in another thread, these refs are human, they do have their dislikes and likes, I do think that their personal like/dislike can seep into their decisions

And other times that decision by Klein today is just a head scratcher, ie incompetent

 

[top-dog]

Who cares fuck both teams we always get duded every week ,week in week out now lets enjoy this win .

I hate any betting spencers being involved in the game. Was better when it was alcohol.

I'd almost feel better about the sponsorship if it was a business making ice or heroin than a gambling agent.

Well hopefully we see clarification tomorrow when Annesley breaks it down and makes it clear.

All I want him to say is that

Yep. Weird bet though: Risk $200k to win $10k?

I certainly wouldn't do it. Not even for a $200 bet which is all I'd ever bet.

It's a 5% profit on something that is closer to a 2-1 chance, in my opinion. I felt the Tigers were good for an upset.

I would prefer invest the 200k on the stock market for a day or two on something that I predict will rise 5-6% in a day and sell off immediately. Even if it drops 10%, just hold onto it or buy more and you'll get your money back when it bounces back.

 

[Haddaway]

Dud call but how dumb are the Tigers? Lol

Just let them catch it, there was no need to even try to escort anyone off the ball there was 1 second left .

 

[Grunthos]

The problem is easy to solve, don't gamble.
Quite simple really.

 

[Mackdoggies]

If a kick off isn't a structured start of play then what is it?

You missed the other point of you can only call at a stoppage. The end of the game is a stoppage.

Who knows how it works? Don't even know what a forward pass is anymore. Finucane is up for 3 weeks because... Critter got hurt or Penriff whinged hard enough - who knows.

Guarantee if it was Paul Vaughan who (legally) took the JAC intercept its called offside. Yet because JAC is the fastest man in the universe, play on.

They all just make shit up. But whether they could call or not is legit (and stupid too).

The most important component is you can only challenge a decision. You can not challenge general play if no whistle was blown. A stoppage is something that results in a structured start of play. The tigers were playing the ball if it wasn’t full time so it wasn’t challengeable.

Opens up a massive can of worms now if they accept it. Basically every team now has the ability to challenge anything at any time when they think a call was missed. There’s a reason why teams had to give away a penalty on purpose when they think something was missed and they get threatened with a sin bin if it’s wrong. This was to create a stoppage in play which is an error or penalty.

To say that Full Time is a stoppage in play is ridiculous. As soon as he blows the whistle for full time, the game is finished. They essentially restarted the game after it was finished….

 

[Mackdoggies]

Sure. My bad.

But I'm still right though.

This is from a nrl presser in April. So this covers all the NRL changes after 2020.

The NRL does not want the game to become like NFL, with constant stoppages to review each play, and the captain’s challenge is only permitted to contest a decision by the referee. They include:

• Offside - kick chase
• Re-start infringements
• Stealing the ball
• Foul play
• Obstruction
• Mid-air tackle

Incidents not detected by the match officials can't be challenged if there is no stoppage and players cannot deliberately force play to stop so they can call for a captain's challenge.

The ref made a call there was no obstruction and there was a stoppage in play. Thats it. Per above - only blue in calling it was the ref didn't blow the whistle for FT.

Shit rule.

“Incidents not detected by the match officials can't be challenged if there is no stoppage and players cannot deliberately force play to stop so they can call for a captain's challenge.”

Black and white right there mate. No stoppage and no detected incident.

 

[Mackdoggies]

Straight from the NRL rule book:
•
“A structured restart includes the following: Scrum, Penalty (quick tap, free-kick into touch, penalty goal attempt), 6th tackle handover, 20m restart, goal line drop-out.
For clarity, as detailed in point 1 above, a challenge cannot be requested during general play if a whistle has not already been blown to indicate a stoppage e.g. a defending captain/player who suspects that the referee has missed a knock-on from an attacking player may not stop general play by requesting a challenge.”

There is nothing that protects them. It’s black and white against the rules. No penalty or error was blown and Full Time is not recognized in the rule book as a ‘stoppage of play’.

I don’t think if there is manipulation it’s for gambling. I think it’s for the finals. NRL want cowboys to finish top 4 and have a deep finals run, be a credible threat. Maybe even have some sort of home final. Having no QLD teams in the finals last few years must have been really bad for the game up there and for the Nrl in terms of ratings and revenue. I also have had the feeling that over the last few weeks South’s have had the same thing. Refs got their back making sure they make the finals. That being said this was likely just a fuck up need to look for other things like bullshit 10 meters and play the ball penalties. Will be interesting to see what happens prob only the bunker der dropped for a game or 2. Probs means Cummins and Sutton will get promoted again… great uggh.

Guess you missed the word 'includes'. FT stoppage. Not me - from the NRL. And - I'll make it real simple by flipping it. Incidents not detected by the match officials can be challenged if there is a stoppage.

If u cannot see how the NRL interpreted this - nothing I can do to help you.

 

[N4TE]

Honestly as tough as it was to watch a battling team just go down like that, FCUK YEAH! keeps us 1 round closer to avoiding the spoon.

That’s what I thought as well.

 

[Grunthos]

Interesting, could the Cows player contested the ball or not?
I think he was run off the ball, when you look closely the tiger's defender did take a quick look at him and then got in the way.

‘Outraged’ Tigers look at grounds for appeal after last-second Bunker call

Fired up Wests Tigers officials have told the NRL they will “explore all options” after they were denied victory in the dying seconds of Sunday’s game against the Cowboys on Sunday.

As I said, the bunker is proudly sponsored by the T A B

Ash Klein made some interesting decisions

 

[D.O.W.]

Lol.. i dont know shit about fuck in terms of match fixing but the way these clowns behave, they do their best to prove those claims right aha

There is also live betting so match fixing is always a possibility even though Tigs were huge underdogs pre-game

Read the rule book.

Does not include FT at all.

I’ll make it even more simple for you. Direct quote of the rule.

“A structured restart includes the following: Scrum, Penalty (quick tap, free-kick into touch, penalty goal attempt), 6th tackle handover, 20m restart, goal line drop-out.”

You already provided that. Doesn't change shit. U might not agree with it - fine. But per the NRL (and I'm guessing they know the rules better than you or me) - the CC was fine.

And for the fourth time - I don't agree with it in principle but can see how it can be interpreted that way.

So u can stop now. For a NRL fck up that helps the dogs - u seem to have a chip on your shoulder about this.
