Love Phil trolling Gal
Phil trolls everyone. It just that Gal takes it hook line and sinker - and runs with it (probably knowingly). All good stuff.
Gus is a bigger punish on the eardrums than my mother in law, blokes fair dinkum never wrong.💀
Gus: This is red Gal: I agree, it's red Gus: No, it's blue.
it's modern day scripting, these guys are putzes to distract from corruption. In that case the nrl making sure the storm get up.
They really need to investigate the refs.
That Panthers incident optimises what's being going on the last few years, completely scripted results.
Trying to make an easy game hard. To many stupid rules .
The lending rule should stay. It's not Rugby Union.
Maybe the conspiracy theorists have merit in claiming Sportsbet reps are in the ref's ear and not the bunker
100% ref's have a 3rd party betting for them
The reffing is getting worse, they need to be held accountable for it, it’s a joke
Lending weight has always been against the rules. The rule is not stupid, this is not Union.
I’m pretty sure its always been against the rules to lend weight if u touch the tacklers but never when u just touched your own team mater
Yeah up until this season you were allowed to lend weight by pushing your team mate but not by pushing the opponent
I used to have an old VHS of the Winfield cup highlights, I remember a try scored in the 80s by Parramatta that looked like a rugby maul where the whole team piled in behind the guy with the ball to help him over the line. Can't remember the year but I do remember the narrator saying that there will never be another try scored like that again, after the rule was changed.
Anything to do with big betting agencies Sponsoring the game ? Money will kill the game. A betting agency might of lost millions if Storm won by 13 + a phone call to the bunker helps keep him in the game.
Why do NRL need to change rules every off season? I started watching rugby after 2017 and since than there’s new rule every year 🤦🏽♂️
And then there's enforcing rules. Two seasons ago at the beginning of the season they enforce the play the ball, and guess what, all players started playing the ball correctly. Now its drifting back to roll the ball back - every second play the ball is dodgy now..
If you started watching rugby in 2017 you’ve noticed there has been a load of rule changes in rugby too
So why does "the greatest game of all" need it's rules changed every year? It's been a joke for over 20 years now.
Because the very top have never played a game on their lives.
Good call, If they were the greatest game ever made they wouldn't need to keep telling people that. The hype they build up is sickening, they should just enjoy the game for what it is.
@@geotruthnz7013 lol it's called selling tickets and marketing. Ever seen the Half-time Superbowl show? Generating millions
@@thedappercook Yeah well I call it BS
@@geotruthnz7013 lol ok
who is this man NRL... 🙂
If a player punches another player it’s automatic 10 mins in the bin yet one player ( with a history of elbowing players ) elbows another player and he stayed on the field.. definitely a lot of double standards in the NRL…
Racist 😂
@@philmckrakin6752 wow you're actually insane
@@pooddly9637 not exactly Mr a current affairs are you? Any criticism of the lazy, overweight and overrated person is meet with 1 standard response. Racist.
The rules are the problem ❤
Gould would approve teams using the old Parramatta 'wedge', with an inverted scrum of attacking players pushing the ball carrier over the line. Gus, in our game, only one attacker carries the ball. This is done under his/her own weight and speed. To add other players to that equation changes the very nature of the game.
Except when you stop your buddy from been pushed over the touch line.
Big teams getting the roll. Small teams get cheated
What happens when you keep your teammate in the field of play are you “lending”
i like the disruptor rule, players jump for the ball with no intent on catching the ball, just to make the other team knock it on so they get the ball back
And if you can make the opposition knock the ball on without touching them what's the problem?
Yea the guy trying to catch it should be good enough to catch the ball under pressure
Speaking of rules it's about time they scrap the scrum. Absolute joke ! Might as well give the other team the ball straight away and play on.
They have to pickup everything because they have rules to follow but they are not following the rules we all can see the referee and the bunker is being told some of the rules to look at and not look at is not fair and a clean game is corrupt.
"in the old days they would take 4-5 years to change a rule" - Gus, they literally brought in the limited tackle count rule, believe it was originally a 4 tackle set, between round 4 and 5 of a season in the 60s.
Imagine as a player, playing one weekend under unlimited tackles and then turning up next weekend and being told you only had 4 tackles before you had to hand the ball to the opposition. A rule that, alongside the play-the-ball and having 13 players, now defines the sport.
Cool story, except that it's not true. The change from unlimited tackles to four tackles happened from the beginning of the 1967 season. I saw my team at pretty much every game that year and can say 100% the change applied from round 1. Four tackles became six tackles in 1971.
@@daleviker5884 I will take your word for it and nothing I can find says otherwise, apologies thought I'd heard it on a podcast. Either way, it was a very quick introduction. Doing some reading though and it looks like the poms introduced it first after the season had begun, but initially the two teams had to agree before the game on whether they were to use limited or unlimited tackles which sounds completely bizarre.
@@holcable It's true that the poms came up with the specific idea, and maybe that's true about the two teams, I don't know. But I can say from being around then, that the idea of limited tackles was being talked about on and off for a few years before it came in. The biggest driver was television, where England was ahead of us, and they wanted more even contests. But in Australia, a lot of fans saw it as a way to bring St George back to the field. The Poms came up with the specific rules for four tackles in our 1966/67 off season and we adopted it too for the start of the season. When four tackles became six, I can't specifically remember which round it happened in, and it's possible that's what the podcast was talking about. I do remember it was very popular when it was changed.
@@daleviker5884 that may have been it. What was it like watching footy from one year to the other when it happened? Feels like it would have been a different game overnight. Have any other rule changes since come close to changing the game as much?
Gus hit it on the head. They change rules in a second. And that’s the issue - since when did the game become the product of the vision of one man- Vlandys??! We should go back to days of old where any rule change took years- was tested in lower grades and trials before being adopted. It’s a dogs breakfast as it stands now.
Vlandy's needs to go.
Panthers are a protected species 😂
I've seen you say that at least fifty times. Must suck that your team isn't good enough.
And if it happens to the doggies?? Give it a rest, Gus!
Game, set and match to Gallon. There's aways next week Gus
If you don't have that rule it wd be ok to do a rolling maul then.
Gallen is growing on me. Epic post footy human.
He knows his footy.
Tedesco should have been sent off. Protected species
I'm sure the refs, either through their own initiative or through some unspoken guidance, don't send off ANY player that will detract from the entertainment value of the game. At the highest level NRL is not a sport but an entertainment, a business for profit and a fat salary. So it not Teddy who is protected but its any player who puts 'bums on seats'.
Let’s be honest, these lending weight and distractor rules are contrived and dumb
Tedesco been watching karate kid too much
"Who is this Nrl ?" 😂😂
This argument had me in tears 😂
In the thumbnail it looks like the ref n Gal are having a tender moment as he caressed Gals cheek lol did they do it on purpose 😂
There's always going to be bad calls, it's the nature of sport. What needs to happen is the need to obsess over every single decision by the bunker needs to stop. If 10 seconds go past and the ref/bunker hasn't stopped play for review, that's it play on. It's never going to he perfect.
What happens when the bunker and ref can plainly see the Penrith player dive and ankle tap the support player Olam and clearly commits a professional foul yet doesn't get sent for 10 in the bin? What is actually going on here?
@@crazyprayingmantis5596 it'll never be perfect, remember when everyone except the officials saw the Harry Grant knock on in front of the sticks vs the Chooks in the finals last year. Howler. But this conversation will go on forever as you can never eliminate human error, or conspiracy theorists such as yourself 😆 Just the way it is.
Well said. I agree.
I don't reckon NAS lended any weight. He went to, but as soon as he touched him pulled out of it remembering the rule.
That's exactly what happened, plain to see
Gus, come on, what about the cumberland throw and Alfie tripping every game? That aside, is the NRL trying to lose supporters intentionally, it looks like going the way of NFL, a stop start bore fest which will make an 80 minute game go for 3 hours.
Gus's you are a bloody astronaut 😅 Every chance Gal gets he is in to him 😂
Rare Gus likeable moment
The decision to send off two players (always one from each side) for minor push and shove at the end of the bulldogs game was horrendous
So if u can’t lend weight to a tackle does that mean you also can’t attempt to get in the way of your player being dragged over the side line so just stand and watch
love 2 see Gus & Gal argueing over whether the earth is round or flat....😱🤕
Tell me you're a qlder without telling me
Klemmer against the Dragons, twice, and no one bats an eye.
How about the players just play the ball correctly. It’s not touch footy. In the Saint George v warriors game I saw a straight roll back, didn’t even see the feet leave the ground! Let’s focus on that!
Love this discussion haha
They didn't miss it they used their captains challange and they gave it a penalty and choose not to sin bin it which is even worse than missing it. James Tedesco wasn't tripping that was a leg sweep sliding legs tackle in soccer. That was digusting should be a red card if not you will see more. You can break legs doing that
I loose interest in watching league very quickly these days. So hard to get into a game for the ref decisions, and forward passes have become an allowed part of the game. A high tackle is a send off, but players can smash each other front on and that’s laughed at. As my 8 year old grand daughter says… Poppy it is a stupid game, and refuses to watch it.
Sometimes I hate Gus's opinion on things but he makes it damn entertaining when Gal is on the show. Totally agree with everything Gal has said tonight. That Tiger's decision would've put them up 12-0, it was going to be a try 100%, 5 on 2, should have awarded a penalty try and sin binned him. I am saying that as someone who wanted Penrith to win.
Is Gus admitting that in his day he was one of the "coaches of influence" who'd ring the NRL wanting a rule change to suit the way his team played??
The disrupter rule is a bit of a grey area. I'm not even gonna attempt to weigh in on the rest of the arguments. Gal sounded like he was on another planet. Yeah rules are the rules but not all rules are practical and make any sense. Bit like saying pots and kettles don't do the same thing. I'm afraid they do. As far as the over sensitivity in the NRL is concerned, well thats so true and its borderlining woke evangelism.
He’s saying because they send people off for nothing now so we don’t want less players on the field they reff terribly now
Gus thinks the world is flat
Gal saying what NAS did is lending weight. He really doesn't have a clue. What NAS did is NOT lending weight. A little shove in the back of your teammate is NOT lending weight. It never has been. There's a video on KZhead uploaded by the NRL that shows what lending weight is.
Robinson having a sook. It was a nothing. That means that players can't help stop their teammate from being pushed into touch. Stupid rule. Get rid of it!
When we gonna look at 40 minutes halves,maybe too long
Having head of referee explaining decisions for an hour every week is just justifying a salary. He's a politician in every sense, keeping himself relevant. It's nonsense, everybody knows it
They keep themselves relevant but in the same breath make another position or post redundant, because it has or adds no value. Maybe those people need to be subjected to same standard, otherwise it will be one rule for me and another rule for someone else.
Tripping is not an offence if the tackler is touching with hand first. Go back to Alfie Langer cumberland throw was funny.
Gus and Gal 😂
Warriors been getting trash calls for quarter century, you Ozzies never give 2 sh*ts about them ....
Last week Warriors got a last minute penalty in front of the posts when Johnson's legs were touched after a kick. This week, exactly the same happened to Penrith's Schneider, no penalty. Tell us more about how you always get hard done by.
It's the National Rugby League not the International Rugby League.
Gus is out of touch these days…he needs to just be quiet because he is all over the place with his opinions. There’s a reason he doesn’t coach anymore…he wouldn’t be able to in the modern game
Gold 😂
Tripping in my day was worse than a copathange a king hit ecr ect ...JWH the big dawg ... nothign wrong with that hit , and i hate teh ROSTERS nearly as much as Manly
We shouldn't have gone to America in round 1, seems like our game is going to have flags on every play.
Roosters got robbed. Let me tell you why. If you are just competing for the ball only, both your arms need to go to get the ball. Not putting your damn hands on your opponent’s back.
Abbott and Costello
I love how Gal always goes on about the rules are the rules yet he was breaking the rules when it come to the salary cap, dopeing and striking🤣🤣🤣🤣
They’ll end up with so many rules and dodgy interpretations that it’ll end up like Union and no one will want to watch it. Keep the game simple!
Kid passed it to a bloke falling on the ground. Should of been a try regardless. Had 3 other guys to pass to
The game is run by a bunch of muppets
I wonder which coach is friends with the refs ummmmm
Footy is becoming a joke bring back the old days
love gus
Gal is just dumb he don’t why they change the rule and how it impacts the game but wants to say something to keep his job.
Funny how you say the game is getting better every year,but the complaining,whinging & confusion gets worse every year
Drop the refs and promote other ones
the whole approach to refereeing needs to change. The abuse they cop stops the good refs from ever starting, the abuse the players get away with is ridiculous, the on field coaching by the refs has to stop, on field decisions must be made in preference to a fine from the match review committee the week after, consistency of decisions must take place instead of being scared of coach reactions. If its a penalty offence its always a penalty offence not just a penalty until its an important moment of the game.
Is there another sport where referees have as much influence on the outcome of games ?? Its deadset ruining the game.
Whos on first you fools.
Bot beat ya
Rainman
jwh was soft. keary got hit later in the game and was fine. rules weren't followed and implemented in that game plus storms last try was from a pap knock on and forward pass. the lending rule was can't make contact with defenders then changed it this year to no lending at all. refs and nrl are pathetic and gus is right, nrl has no idea how to run the game.
NRL = No Real Leadership. Forget Vegas distraction, the standard of the refs in the NRL are terrible. Not helped by cop out subjective rule changes, and obsession with what the bunker can and can't rule on. I don't care who rules on what happens, who sees it best. Most of all getting it right, is the only thing that matters. Also, dumb rules like 6 again, reinforce refs subconscious biases towards "the team expected to win". With refs never held to account on why they give them? When they give them? Why they don't give them? Forget growing the game, until refs standards are a lot better, and rules made "black and white". Aka scrap rule changes like 6 again, that favor certain teams over others.
Just do the right things and fix it and stop talking 💩
😂😂
Look forward to the day Gould is retired. So sick of his cranky personality and arrogant high regard for himself and own opinions. He's a self-opinionated bully. Always blaming people, referees, nrl management and normally whoever has a different opinion/thinking to him.
Real rugby league is dead its now about tatoos and haircuts
NRL is WOKE
bring back the wedge......if players can't handle it well then tell em to go play netball......and bring back the biff as well 😋😆
Rugby league is a total joke now
