Craig Revel Horwood,he 'shimmies' ...not super league players.

Or we can wait till you flog him for an aussie and then pick him up cheap as you blame the salary cap

I'd agree actually on Pryce - he's had much much better games but Wigan policed him pretty well. Both Tomkins and Eastmond impressed me alot but I would have expected with the lack of forward power we had Wigan and Tomkins to dominate alot more tbh

The bit you highlighted in bold explains why the try WAS given, he carried on moving in one motion he did not make a second effort with the ball carrying arm.

To be fair, it does sound good, come on!

But it was his ball carrying arm that made the movement...

furry muff

That is where your arguement ends! I agree if it had been dry he wouldn't have scored, but he slid over due to the conditions!!

I sound like Paul Cullen don't I with these ridiculous 'terms'.

I should stop.

Ok, maybe the rules need changing?

He made a lot of yards through sliding mind!!

are we still playing this game??

1999 Grand final. Henry Paul slid for 10 metres under the sticks after Sonny Nickle tackled him. Verdict = try time.

The conditions play a part in all sports. If it wasent raining Meli wouldent of knocked on.

What are you on about it was a complete sliding moment all the way to the try line. It was a great piece of individual opportunitsm, live with it, and move on.

It wasnt, watch again

Also, re your point about changing the rules and sliding over, RL is an outdoor sport and unlike cricket, tennis etc play isnt stopped because of the rain. Part of its appeal is that you need to adapt to and play to the conditions.

What do i have to be bitter about???...
I was just commenting like anybody else in this thread...

It was a great tackle too!

I will watch it again, but I swear his elbow hit the floor, then he carried on moving.

Your right his elbow did hit the floor but he then did not make any further movement of the arm (lift it, rach out etc), his momentum took him over.

You really do no nothing about rugby league. Of course his elbow hits the deck. The rule that you cant have a second attempt, he dident! He beat two men, stepped the fullback and his momentus took him over the line. It's called slidding. Go outside with a rugby ball over your local field and run and slide from 10 metres out, you will slide past the in goal.

They both looked a threat in broken field and they both have a lot of learning to do when leading a team around a park. That's not a criticism though, and I'm convinced both will learn the tricks of the trade as half backs and go on to be world beaters. Great to see these lads coming through.

it's a tricky one to interpret that Eastmond try, I don't think there was a double movement, because it was all 1 sliding movement, there was no halt especially when seen in real time. So I dont think his hand pushed him on after being stopped, I think it simply supported the slide, as opposed to tucking his hand in in which would have stopped the slide by use of his shoulder.

the only thing that really matters about Eastmonds try in the end is that it was given and we won.

no he's not!!

He's a good sl player!! World class my ar$e!!

Dunno about that one.

He is.... World class!! Often goes missing but when he performs. He is awesome!!

He is one of only a few that actually perform against the Aussies (even on the wing).
