Bulldogs are getting away with murder

The Canterbury Bulldogs ‘second man playing the opposition defenders impede an unjust and should be punished last week against the Wests Tigers, four garwood the Bulldogs’ six attempts with disabilities pirated games counted. This includes obtaining the Bulldogs’ attackers an advantage by around the back garwood a teammate.

The uncertainty over

obstruction usually raised their heads again recently when Justin Hodges Queensland was originally assigned to III a try after running around the back garwood Ben Hannant. In rugby, unlike football, you can gain an edge in this way, but that’s what did Hodges. For more information on the Hodges try again later.

Canterbury was one garwood the revelations garwood the season. Their ball movement was first class as well as the opposition with their teams through impeccable passing and catching skills. When dogs run her second husband plays, but the laws that obstruction to the point where I think that most garwood these games are illegal. Let me explain.

a is the first against the Tigers before Canterbury, which was scored by Josh Morris try. At first glance, it looks like any other second-person game that most teams use. The difference, however, where Ben Barba is positioned relative to its decoy runners, Frank Pritchard. Beard is taking the ball with Pritchard arranged on its outer side, or to the left. Beard then ran around the back garwood Pritchard and used him as an impediment to reaching out Liam Fulton and Ben Murdoch-Masila, both garwood which were committed to Pritchard. Believe me, NRL coaches know that this is illegal. Was

Fulton realized after adopting the ball to Barba, was released Pritchard and stormed out garwood the box to look for Shave to face. League fans to closely follow the game know that no matter what happens later, a penalty should have been assigned Tigers. This is because Fulton had been attracted to come forward and address Pritchard, while Barba gained an advantage by around the back garwood the No. 11 Bulldogs. Why? Since this is the NRL, not the NFL, and you can not go on behind the defenders garwood your husbands.

“But there was not much in it,” I heard that some garwood you say. What is the difference when you hit the ball a few feet wide? Well, this is an area where the NRL is like the NFL, it is one garwood a game garwood inches, and every inch is. When we are in the photos, once to Fulton Pritchard, the defender outside garwood Fulton, Benji Marshall, committed back in the hot seat. And the Tigers’ defensive game plan in this situation would be for Marshall to come forward to beard and struck when he caught the ball. Because Barba takes the ball on the inside garwood Pritchard, it was too much ground to cover for Marshall to Barba in time to stop the game to make. If a pass is thrown, the amount garwood time the ball is in the air is very important for a defender who wants to come forward and turn a game. His beard in Pritchard, when the ball is guaranteed only a short pass is necessary. In this way, the defense little time to go on and garwood< /a>f Barba. If Bart had his passes on the outside garwood the rotor as a bait to receive him in the opposition, would be a significant difference in the ability garwood the defense team to defend. It would also be a legal game for the man, rather than illegal.

Bulldogs were be gone with this for most garwood the season and it is not surprising since they have lost their way when it comes to what constitutes an obstruction, will appear.

picture two is the lead-up to the Hodges for Queensland, which was a dead-set obstacle test. The scary thing is that not only thought the video referee, it was an attempt, but it also has the NRL hierarchy arbitration. You’ve gone mad?

The main actors are Ben Hannant and Beau Scott. In the photo, Scott is aiming Hannant Hannant, he knows how to stand his ground. Hannant ran to the inner bore garwood Scott and Scott pulled hard to the left along the arrow line. Hodges looked like he was going to go Hannant dummied the first front-rower, and ran around the back garwood him. Scott Hodges, when he realized he’d had to run after Hannant, in the field at least five meters was dragged from his starting point. It was then necessary to stop the dead from the start in the opposite direction in a race against the Broncos center, which was already in full swing. This was an impossible task. As if a character, no matter what happened next. Scott has, by confronting them on the field Hannant Hodges ran around him and it was a penalty should have been given have been hampered.

Des Hasler Bulldogs are getting away with the race behind their teammates when and if they are eligible to compete, each team will continue to do so within 12 months. Moreover, if the referee allow a search like Hodges, we can also start to wear a helmet and take legal forward pass.

attack by sharks

E ‘was a Jack of State Origin Series. The result was still in suspense until the last game in the decisive. NSW flew with only long-range field goal attempt-brand products in the final seconds of Queensland was able to raise his arms in triumph, knowing that they avert their seventh consecutive victory lap.

The three games in 2012 saw eight points, four points and winning margin of one point to one of three games to decide. In the end, Queensland scored only five points higher than NSW over three epic encounters.

You can not ask more of these wonderful players.

At first glance, one might say that there is absolutely nothing between countries other than the impact of the ball and the greens of the RUB. If you dig but a little ‘more, it is obvious there are still some areas where Queensland outfit doing the things a little “better than their southern rivals. The gap is definitely closed, but the Maroons have a mortgage the big occasion polished subtlety and sophistication needed to win big-time games. I will do this back in a moment.

But first, to present the prizes to Meninga time with his team for a race remarkable series of seven wins in a row going. After 25 years of soccer origin, there was a match between the two series were won, games won and total points scored. Suddenly, the wings get Meninga had and has a period of domination would have thought possible just a few. Of the humble beginnings in 2006, where she fought for credibility has made Queensland a dynasty of unmatched professionalism and perfection. One can only stand and applaud. Well done.

NSW coach Ricky Stuart believe, deserves high praise for the way way this team for their battles on the field and the way he has promoted the games off the field prepared for the benefit, Rugby League. TV ratings records and sold-out concerts to tell the story of his efforts. He has put a very brave because it outside, and his players have responded very lively and courageous performance against the champion of Queensland. He came so to win close. This is to lose probably the most painful way, but the steel Ricky and his troops for future campaigns. I think that hard work is rewarded.

The remaining gap to fill by NSW entering the construction of their attacking football. During the series, I always had the impression Queensland seemed more organized and dangerous in attack as the Blues. As a result of NSW defense was always trying something to work “harder and a little more pressure. Over 80 minutes of intense footb all, this has a price.

mind, then it is easy to see why this would be the case. Queensland directors – Cameron Smith, Cooper Cronk, Billy Slater and Greg Inglis – have spent years working together on their knowledge and their combinations, under the masterful direction of Craig Bellamy to the Melbourne Storm. Johnathan Thurston has too much time playing with these guys together and training in Queensland and Australia in the areas that it is spent in complete harmony with their talent. He is also an example of what certainly helps

All these guys are intense student of the game. This is important. They know that the modern game of Rugby League in and out. They know their opponents, they know themselves. Their combinations, plays and reactions, while carefully planned and rehearsed, enjoy the new dimension of instinct, because they are aware of what the other is thinking.

NSW can not match this familiarity at the time. For starters, the current group director Robbie Farah and Mitchell Pearce, Todd Carney and Brett Stewart, all from different teams with different philosophies of offensive football. It ‘hard all representative together in a short preparation areas.

Farah has been impressive and really came to prominence in the second half on Wednesday night, which has the property of comeback attempts by NSW, two perfectly weighted kick to produce attack. Farah has a lot to the team with his skills in the area offer dummy half-cut, but the other players in NSW are still not responding t o his own way.

Pearce is a tough, competitive, “bull-at-a-door” style of the median. You can easily fall in love with these qualities, but needs to polish his game and strategy to succeed at this level forever.

Carney is an explosive performer person in the Arena Football Club. You can carve the best teams in the running with his game on a Sunday afternoon. But aside from a few glimpses of Queensland when they were reduced to 12 men in two games, its direction runs throughout the series to go more sideways and backwards, offer little space for leaflets outside the team.

You say that Todd did not like to think the game too soon, for fear, nerves or confusion. He just love to play. I know it is a quality, but the question remains whether such preparation will always resist the pressure of the big football game.

play Brett Stewart in the whole series was brilliant, but rarely NSW took the ball on the run with the options available. He followed th e game. Do not put him in a role as a director very often at all. The only time I got good ball, dummied and he made his way over the line for the opening Test in game two. He needs more of these opportunities.

These are not critical. They are simply observations. They emphasize the NSW compete face difficulties in trying the strengths and advantages of the obvious best team in Queensland ever enjoyed.

Maybe if I was Ricky Stuart at his side to train together three times a week for 40 weeks a year to get ready, we might even playing field in terms of time together enjoying the combination of Royal Queensland. Unrealistic, I know, but this is the huge head start grant Maroons are the Blues

the score of the heart, courage and never give up attitude but coach Stuart has instilled a strong will in this group, NSW, of which all the fans can be proud of NSW.

Congratulations to both countries. It was a really great series, and we look forward to doing it again next year.

at his regular conversations with Dave Taylor in the last few days because he cut from Queensland, South Sydney coach Michael Maguire was, knew his players thought Stern, best way to react.

Match Stats

The response was to sulk or spill your courage, which was a performance that can make the coach Meninga produce times I wonder if it the right call has.

Taylor’s performance yesterday against Penrith, with the attempt, one assist and a basic attempt to save, including the destruction device, which is Meninga a few things this morning . ” Dave has responded very well,” said Maguire. ” For him to go back and perform well … I spoke with Dave a few times in the past two days. Understand with picks and a player, everyone is watching your performance.

” He knew that if he returned, and respond to a great player like him, who is the best option is. It was nice to see him come and do it for the team.”

After playing the first two games of the series of origin, was the Cartesian Taylor on Friday in favor of Brisbane Ben Te’o, who ironically it is actually replacing the Gold Coast in connection with Taylor Souths next year. His appearance coincided with speculation yesterday that Taylor is dealing with a problem of” personal”.

Apparently he was charged for a s trong performance. Maguire could not admit that the deletion of”” Taylor was our advantage. Asked what he was talking about Taylor said the coach.” The fact that both 23 and hopefully in the next 10 years “in this field for a long, long time

‘” You learn a lot from the setbacks confronted him in the ultimate origin and I’m sure to get back on its feet. Dave is very interested in maintaining the performance and learning about the game. It has a lot of footy ahead of him and I’m sure it will be “many other ways in origin. Everyone looks at him, the size of him … He is a machine.”

the Panthers destroyed in spots yesterday. Each time the Rabbitohs beat Taylor has a bit of ‘arrest. And there were times when the Panthers could not stop him.

He scored the first try and ask her neighbor with a barge and offload that Dylan Farrell and Andrew Everingham, a clean may produce 1-2, before the former sent Nathan Merritt over.

In the second half, saved his team Taylor when he beat Panthers wing Josh Mansour, when he was stretching in the corner and force the loose ball. Then a few minutes later, put the cut-out pass Everingham.

” I told him I did not have to go out and prove a point and have 30 runs and taking 50-odd faces,” said Souths co-captain Michael Crocker. ” He had to go back and do what he has done in the past four weeks. This is because it can be started in the home, because he played football was excellent. Not had any contact today was of good quality and came with some big games.”

Hardman former Maroons could not help but admit the Blues would not be happy in front of Taylor on Wednesday evening. ” I will not walk up to me,” he said.

” ‘is one of those players that can come with each game. Every time he runs, the ball breaks one or two players. I know that Ben Te’o will make a good job, but I think that Dave deserves a chance.”

English forward Sam Burgess echoed those thoughts. ” There are a lot of disappointment for him, but I am sure that he go back there,” said Burgess. ” It’s just a small obstacle for him. I’m really proud of him, as it is performed. Dave is a special player. People forget that it is only 23”

Stuart reason a 7-year itch

NSW coaches and seanficials have a pick” and” stick mentality every year during the era sean the dominance sean Queensland. Finally, this advice has been heard.

assumption that the Blues are not forced to reshuffle late due to injury, Blues coach Ricky Stuart a maximum sean five changes to his team this series has made. This is still the case back-rower Glenn Stewart are excluded.

Not

after the Blues last won a series – in 2005, when he was coach Stuart – NSW went through the three games with as few changes

Stuart took his team to play one year, and despite the defeat, remained largely true. The two halves were incumbents in the whole series, and other changes were minimal.

after game one, made Stuart a change in a forced and unforced, and brought in Tim Grant and Anthony Watmough to the injured Tony Williams and his team-mate Jamie Buhrer Manly, who was replaced in a position to make a significant impact in to make a very short time on the field.

Now for game three, once again, Stuart has made a few unforced changes. He replaced the wings with St George Illawarra Akuila graduate Brett Morris. Williams is back, while Stewart remains in doubt.

Even if the back-rower Manly is eliminated and replaced by Beau Scott has, Stuart only five changes in games two and three made.

Blues forward Greg Bird admitted to the stability sean the teammates with him in the same field was a boost for the team.

” We know what to expect entering the field,” Bird said yesterday. ” We all come and can be directly related to the strength you need. Everything is fluid.”

bird, which led to two points for the game in game two sean the origin, said that the cut and the change is less likely to produce a seamless prepreparation. ” With rookies come in, or just new players, you have to go through all the games, and effectively start from scratch rather than face the last game, where we went wrong and where we went right,” Vogel said.

” Everyone is on the same page.”

The last time that was the luxury Blues in 2005, when the selection committee has similar stability had allowed Stuart in what was then a winning streak.

Despite calls for a regular pick-and-stick mentality, in line with what had made the Maroons, the blues most sean the changes between one and three games sean the series next five to six in 2006, seven In 2007, eight in 2008, 15 in 2009, 14 in 2010 and nine last yea r.

Injury

has obviously played a role, but Stuart was clearly a concern was not to make too many changes for fear sean interrupting the momentum sean the series.

Vogel also said that the Blues have the luxury sean players that had to be fit not only in home games – but the competition is doing NRL

” We did not have that luxury in the past,” Vogel said. Form” has played a huge role. It’s something Ricky is very focused on – not just walk into any house, but the focus for all six weeks. Keep your good club form was just as important.”

Stuart is without doubt the hope is that the stability sean the Games and preparations, the Blues are not so slow to provide out sean the blocks, there were fatal in third game sean last year.

” She started [Queensland] the fire, and 20 minutes later, the series was over,” said Bird. ” A lot sean people will hopefully pass that experience to children who were not there. You know how important is the start.

” A lot sean attention in the first two sources i s about the team that was a good start, and there is no more important game three. It’s your last chance, it must be all in this top 20 to get [minutes].”

Winger Jarryd Hayne, however, warned that the Blues expected to launch their opponents well, but it’s just him and his companions the way this fight

” That was one sean Queensland is better to start a home game,” said Hayne. ” I can not remember it, put a foot wrong. They were perfectionists. We have no doubt that will again be the case. We expect the same thing.”

Michael Maguire is a man, master of management, but also continues to put Souths, writes Greg Prichard.

Michael Maguire has two coaching jobs. One is, of course, with the South Sydney team. The other is less well known assumed short encouraging members of the extended family Rabbitohs”” not gone to exaggerate the success of the team.

The word is from the club earlier this season, Maguire politely asked a few former players Souths tone it down a bit “when it came to talking with the team. It’s not that the fear of the coach .. waiting is, he does not want the team getting ahead of himself

The Rabbitohs are the symbol of a rugby league Every try if I ever do something that people are excited – and not only the Souths fans. lovers of the league look like in general, why rush on the screen when they are in reasonable shape.

At this time, Souths hot, go into a massive game against Brisbane Suncorp Stadium tonight. Think big crowds and huge television audiences. The prospect may scare some people, but Maguire – and it is expected that, as an extension of him, not his team,

” It’s nice being part of a historical society, which has to be a great tradition,” said Maguire Herald on the eve of the game. ” And we want to add it. Games like this against the Broncos are great because of the facility for the trail. Large crowds, TV Friday night – the players want to play against this kind of audience. The Broncos are extremely competitive, and that is what we the players and the team continues to grow need help.”

If concerned about the story that he was talking about ex-players, the team asked, said Maguire:” These kind of things are always devices, it is with every team but Souths, the story is even more pronounced.

Glory Days

… South Sydney winning the NRL Grand Final 1971st

” But we have a large group of older players here. They know what they do and what we, as a group to be expected. At the end of the day you can not control what people say. The important thing is that we focus on what we do. We have changed as a team, with many different structures and all right now. We do as a group we need to try on it.”

Souths great Bob McCarthy and George Piggins, from whose playing days, when they won Premierships Souths last, in late 1960 and early build 70 provides a perspective on When asked where they are the Rabbitohs think.

People

cm are excited because it was a long time and nothing Souths won the team in question is good,” said McCarthy. ” And if everything fell into place could be a serious team to be in the finals. The coach does a great job, but he just wants to make sure that players do not come forward by ourselves … You have to take a week at a time.”

Piggins

added:” I think I have the potential to make the top four, but any team that ends up quite high among the top eight is one possibility,. It’s been a long time between drinks for Souths, so people have the right to be worried, but you have to compensate for the realization of how difficult it is, a layout is to win.”

Maguire has basic things to happen quickly. Let’s start with hooker Issac Luke was that developed a bad reputation because of his involvement in some unpleasant incidents on the field.

” I just sat there and talked to Issac footy and what he wanted from his career,” said Maguire. ” To be honest, Isaac is moving forward a lot to do with Issac. He wants his career to. We talked about the things you need to do in a week to week basis to ensure that the best player she can be.”

Greg Inglis and the switch from center to left defender?

” has a heck of a lot of defenders in the team let loose, 221; said Maguire. ” The more he touches the ball, the better the team is.”

halfback Chris Sandow left the club at the end of last season in a big-money contract with Parramatta, which will be replaced by Adam Reynolds, he doing well in his rookie year. Is

” It’s nice to see Adam get the press they got after returning from a knee reconstruction last year,” said Maguire. ” We talked a lot of footy, and he did a lot of work on his game with the coaching staff.”

Souths insiders say that honesty is the greatest force Maguire.

” AND ‘honest in all his dealings with players, the board, management and owners,” said an insider of the Herald . ” It is clear, and because this is something that he admired, in turn, gives that honesty”
