who else watched cooper cronks successfull field goal attempt?
RTS made contact with cronks legs while attempting a charge down.. Although cronk didnt lay around acting in pain ( unlike someone else) there was clear contact and commentators didnt say a word..

Nothing will come of it, just like last week with Rabbitohs Lowe getting off with attacking Thurstons legs.

I'm not one who believes in an anti-Bulldogs bias (unlike many on here) but the Tuivasa-Sheck one is waaaay worse than the James Graham one. Graham came in from an angle that he could (but didn't) have blocked the kick without connecting with the man. RTS came in at an angle which was always 100% certain to go straight through Cronk's kicking leg.

Will be interesting to see the judiciary.

Was it even put on report? I didn't see the ref say anything.

Dont you know they have to miss the goal and get injured before they blow the penalty? The NRL reacts on how dramatic something looks not the rules.

News just in that Tony Archer has found a brand new boat in his driveway. Small card attached to the engine with initials N.P....media are claiming its a good will gesture from satisfied fans

NOTHING will come of this.

I wish cronk missed the field goal, because then the refs would have had to have blown a penalty and RTS get's put on report to keep the almighty cameron smith happy.

Soon as I saw the highlights, I came on here to find a thread just like this.

Why am I not surprised no action was taken.

The officials never fails to disappoint with the constant double standards. Yet the powers that be expect people to respect officials when the interpretation of the rules are different every week?
