Qld Premier Rugby 2022

[Wilson]

Yellow card for Fa'agase but no penalty try. Will this mean uncontested?

Edit: No, Zander back to tight head and Davies on

Ref just guessing. Collapsing instantly. Could be anyone.

Seriously. This is incredible referring. Instant collapses but it's either a Wests penalty or a reset. Yeah right.

Not refereeing each scrum on it's merits.

 

[Wilson]

Wests finally cross to level the score, 95 minutes in. Kick to win it, miss for golden point.

 

[Wilson]

Narrowest of misses from Whiteside, golden point it is.

Grand Final the commentators reckons.

 

[Wilson]

105 minutes and they can't be split. Wests go through on the back of scoring the first points. It'll take one hell of an effort from UQ to back up next week after that.

 

[RugbyReg]

Holy schmoley what a game. Just a complete battle at the end. Deserved draw. Wests probably lucky due to ill discipline. A week off could be vital.

 

[Mug Punter]

Jesus. What a game.

What?
I’m a neutral and that should have been a penalty try everyday of the week.

How can you give a penalty try on an instant collapse? The one before the eventual try would've been a pen try if they infringed whilst going backwards but there was no infringement.

He was playing advantage - he penalised UQ enough to give a yellow card.
Penalty try was warranted IMO

 

[RugbyReg]

I’m not convinced a penalty try was deserved but ever penalty seemed fair. Zander and Sef were collapsing repeatedly

On the hit? Why was the referee resetting some and gifting instant penalties when the collapsed was on the hit.

Yeah, I'm not sure how to the letter of the law that sequence was, but I think the overall result of those scrums was correct. A penalty try there would've been a pretty hollow result.

 

[eldiablo]

I usually love to see Wests lose, but that game should have ended much earlier with a penalty try to them at least 2 or 3 times.

 

[Juan Cote]

watch the last 15 odd mins of the match before extra time. . In a different context of a game where the attacking team is leading the outcome would be totally different and after a couple of scrum resets and penalties a penalty try would have resulted. The ref did not apply the laws objectively.

Wasn’t a penalty try because Skelton knocked on at the back of the scrum, but they were playing advantage.

 

[Juan Cote]

So what other outcome was there if Skelton hadn’t have knocked on?

Well one penalty was for dropping to knees, another was angle, then a couple of resets so can’t really argue with the Refs call.
Had he not knocked it on they would’ve scored a push over try anyway

 

[Juan Cote]

The whole premise of advantage is you have a crack despite what an infringement is for. Despite the ref being too scared to apply the laws of the game, result was the right one.
