Rabbitohs under investigation

[cntrbry bnkstwn]

You have to joking. Extra Souths player was involved in the play.

 

[Rod67]

When it was 22-6.

We were LOSING the game, and won with the 14th player on the field.

Vastly different

Ah, that doesn’t matter, if there’s an extra player on the field and you win you lose the 2 points. We lost 2 points for having an extra player on the field and didn’t have part in the play. In fact one was coming off while the interchange player was running on, but the player coming off was still a few metres from the sideline. Extra player on field loss of 2 points. I thought it was madness but it’s the RULE!

There is absolutely no precedent where 2 points are guaranteed lost under such circumstance.

The Cowboys were docked 2 points in the early naughties for having 14 for a substantial period. The Broncos some year later retained them for having a 14th player - albeit for about 30 seconds.

Our incident directly influenced the end result. Hence why we lost points

fuck the broncos

Rabbitohs under investigation for having 14 players on the field for a few plays last night. Watch nothing happen. Yet we get stripped of points in 09 for an incident similar, where the 14th player wasn’t involved in any play. And that ultimately cost us the minor premiership.

Load of Shit

Soward cost us the MP

 

[Chris Harding]

There’s been a few instances over the years. Teams always cop fines. But yeah we got points stripped. Call me a sook but that sets up that season so different. We would have been minor premiers that year.

I think that was also the year of the Soward incident which cost us another two points.

 

[Chris Harding]

Hold up, gents.

Ours was a VASTLY different scenario.

In 09, our 14th player played a passive role in us winning the game. Our 13th player was injured in back play, and instead of going off, Ryan (or maybe Ennis) stayed in the field when they were supposed to go off.

But he was never near the play, and had no effect on the result.

NO it did NOT.

What part of the extra player we had on the field had no part in the play let alone the TRY!

Ennis was injured and being attended to by the trainer and was going to be replaced so we had an extra player on the ground but one was injured. Doesn’t matter. We were fined and docked 2 points!

Soufffs have had an extra player on the field and was involved in 3 plays!

In what way did it directly influence the result?

Sorry you are wrong. Our incident did not influence in any way the result. Try was scored on the opposite side of the ground to where the extra player was and Ennis was being attended to by the trainer.

 

[Rod67]

The NRL site and 9 have been jizzing so hard over latrell and graham since souths won there's no chance they will lose points now. Oh to be a protected species

It F’N stinks if they don’t lose 2 points. Different rules for different teams.

 

[Kempsey Dog]

We know they should lose 2 points due to precedents of previous rulings... But it's fucking Souffs, they will get their dick sucked and get off.

 

[craigo]

They are the pride of the league Rustys rabbits can’t punish them.

 

[King Gus]

Soward cost us the MP

That little **** milked it .
That will never be forgotten.

 

[Gene Krupa]

I think they will lose the points, as it was for 30 secs & even though it didn't affect the outcome it was 14 vs 12 at the time.

Souffs will get the golden handshake as always unfortunately

 

[Dognacious]

Just read on 9 site that the breach is considered minor and unlikely to lose points. Burgess, the illegal player, took a hit up with 14 on the field. Our illegal player didn't get involved and we lost points. Maybe how long ago makes a difference. Different regime now

Burgess could have been the 14th man and did a hip drop tackle and Souffs still wouldn't have their points taken off them

A screengrab of the incident shows Jai Arrow running into the middle of the field moments after Burgess had played the ball following a hit-up.

If you’ve created a situation where a defender needs to adjudicate where to position himself based on a player illegally entering the field - then they’re active enough to cause a sufficient change to defensive patterns.

Correct. And it probably takes a whole set before your defensive line re-adjust to the numerical advantage.

But it's and indigenous team.....er...I mean Souths......er...I mean an indigenous team...

Shame on the media or NRL for even raising it as a potential issue.

NRL should just apologise and give them 300k salary cap dispensation for the next 4 years.....
