Firstly, buy a new keyboard or go back to school. :happy: Secondly, the arm with the ball did not touch the ground therefore it was still in play.

Yep well spotted, but it is a rarity, and players rarely then take a "voluntary" tackle unlike in the attacking 20.

Gutherson was penalised in his defensive 20 yesterday for using Blake Ferguson as an obstruction.

This rule also only gets applied in the attacking 20 and no were else on the field.

The reason Tedesco was called was because the Warriors player was close enough to touch the player he ran behind, the video shows this. Moses was not called because their wasn't a Tigers players within 4 or 5 metres of the players he ran behind.

Once again inconsistent refereeing. Rules penalised one day, let go the next.

You would think a former NRL player who played 250 odd games would know the obstruction rule.
