Cheating Aussie s

We got nothing in the second half, so many second efforts when tackles had been completed that were not given which meant we couldn't get field position

The more you see it in slow mo the more it looks dead set try.

Robbed!

If that was in SL it would have been given a try. I think England were far too conservative in the second half, and although we got zip from the officials, the blame has to land on the players for not taking the game to Australia.

Aussies do even more damage to the credibility of Rugby League.

'Fingergate' will run and run...

I do agree we tried to shut up shop in second half. But that was a try and Australia just never got penalised.

We knew that was going to be the case though. We needed to make sure we didn't leave it in the referee's hands because we wouldn't get the calls.

The premise leading to the introduction of the video ref was too many "important" errors (as if there are any other kind) by the referee.



Given that I've seen an appalling number of bad decisions by the video ref I no longer see any need to waste the money.

Don't think that was even a 50/50 call, after watching it 5/6 times it looked to be a clear cut try. That felt like a kick in the guts, I am stunned that they can disallow it. The 'excuse' for not awarding it was that the ball was rising when he touched it but there is clear evidence to show that the ball was flat on the ground when Hall's finger hit it.



So angry!!

IMO a shocking decision by the video ref, however if England had continued in second half what they were doing in the first half I doubt the convicts would have had to rely on that dubious decision.
