Good luck to connections 💪
Can someone tell me why the 20m post to assist adjudicating on 40/20's is not on the junction of the sideline and 20m line?
Yes they will be top 8 next year. Unfortunately yesterday they weren't told it was an NFL exhibition game!! 😂
Warriors too good in the end
But Dragons 🐉 are looking a far better side now and are improving
Big improvement next year with the roster additions

You're invited to the World's Biggest Birthday Party 🎉 This Sunday at Accor Stadium, fans will have the chance to donate to Jai's fight against MND, whilst breaking the world record for the most people wearing a party hat at one time.
Best team won
Had to keep the average officiating all the way to the end… that’s a completed tackle, lol
Munster was onto something at half time when he said they weren’t getting 50/50 calls
#Origin
The major issue here is the 3pm start to the race. Most schools are finished at 3pm. Race is on right in the middle of pick up
Margin 0.23
Strange game ..... Strange rules .... Zero consistency
Double the limit prior to the 100m, including consecutive strides in a hard run 2200m race. Getting the horse home in the last couple of strides.
Many astute punters would take short odds that it changed the result of the race. $500 fine ....
The way this rule is policed and the consequences almost seem drawn out of a hat at times #TheGreatGame
Great times!

Apprentice jockey Coriah Keatings was wiping away tears after claiming her first stakes victory with a masterful ride on Spicy Lu in the Princess Stakes at Eagle Farm. @bendorries76 @nickoliveracing

Absolutely spot on
“6 again” is now just another layer of penalty … It was initially supposed to be given as a tackle restart, instead of stopping the game for a penalty … Now it’s more an additional layer of penalty for a minor indiscretion … In the majority of cases, fans (and players), have no idea why it was awarded … The majority of “6 agains” do not need to be given, and in the previous system, a penalty would not have been given … The fact that these 6 agains can accrue to produce a sin bin for supposedly repeated offenses, is indeed troublesome … A couple of “6 again” rulings in a row can completely change the momentum of a game … It can result in 12-18 tackle sets to the attacking team … Very hard to contain and takes a lot of energy out of the defending side …
Dragons very brave against the odds and officiating. Can't win them all but can be proud of the endeavour
Bulldogs ordinary and win
Dragons incredible and beaten
I tipped dogs
But wow dogs got every call every call and more and more
Dragons better than I thought they were going to be

Forceful contact to the head, gets sun binned, but Pongia who takes the hit, stays down, isn't made to go off for HIA???
The rules around reinstating a retired horse need to be addressed. Retired is retired. It shouldn't matter if a box was ticked or not.
This is really disappointing 2 see. An 8yo mare that suffered cardiac arrythmia, we retired her because she didnt want to run through it anymore. 5k buy that won us 210k! owes nothing!Sold to be a broodmare but a greedy owner is going to race her again @RVStewards @RacingVictoria
