to the guys at Sunday Roast!
in the ninth minute of Sharks vs Storm on Friday 26.9, storm attacking and nearly over the try line was pushed from behind by another storm player almost pushing him over the try line. tackled forward so close to getting over. This went on for so long that if it was a sharks defender being pushed the smae distance in the same area of the field, into the in goal area it should be a penalty to the sharks!
thanks!!

To the guys on the Sunday Roast.
YOUR KIDDING!!!
You were just saying that the Bulldogs only lost by 2 points and they played without SB Williams and they have a number of their stars with injuries. Let's take a small backward step, the Cowboy's are without Steve Southern, Luke O, Shane Tronc and lost Charlie for the last 15. I'm pretty sure if we had those players we would have won by 22!!!
