Official Matt Moylan

[MMsharks]

Yeh I thought his attitude in defence especially was good

has been for a couple games now - has been putting in the effort

definitely giving hynes the control

Another great off season = Moyza playing somewhere closer to his ability. Does having Fitz & Nico, rather then Morris & a hot / cold SJ help as well?

I’m no Moylan fan.

But that try assist to Talakai’s disallowed try

Why was it disallowed? Was distracted at the time.

A bullshit obstruction call against Kennedy. By the bunker after the try was awarded.

I'll have to watch it again, didn't notice anyone impeded.

 

[Shortfin Mako]

He is finding his form. He was really good tonight. Solid performance.

Halves Combination GOLD.
BOTH Dangerous.

 

[puma1355]

that pass !!!! looking good. Just wish he had more speed however playing well

 

[bort]

I’d say thing that impressed me most about Moylan was knights put up a short restart and there was a lot of people waiting to see what happened and he went up and grabbed it.

Something he was wary of during his bad patches switching around positions and in context of game he definitely could have got away with standing back and waiting with everyone else

Like it or not. It was the right call under the rules.

 

[Riverside MF]

The common sense by the officials does and continues to do my head in.

Do you think the Knights winger deserved to go to the bin for Ronald’s Oscar winning acting moment?
He even does his own stunts!

By the rules.. sure.
Doesn’t make it fair and/or reasonable

No, but the sin bin was a more interpretive decision, was it for contrary conduct in the end or something like that.

The obstruction is a black and white call, if you run behind the player, or catch the ball inside the lead runner, or make contact with the outside shoulder it is a penalty 99% of the time. I'm not saying I agree that is how I'd officiate it, sometimes it is frustrating. But they are very consistent in this area.

The no try was and would have been up there with try’s of the year.

Soured by (as you say) a consistent (yet questionable) decision.

Sad really.

Talakai deserved the try.
Moylan deserved the assist.

Presumably but I don’t really get it, held call indicates tackle is complete so player should be entitled to play ball at that point - and technically is - but other team have not been told release yet, ie stop tackling him, despite the tackle having been acknowledged as complete.

I’d have thought anything defender does in tackle after held call should be at their own risk.

 

[Flanno]

Don’t get the big outrage on this signing, very low amount off our salary cap and gives us some depth.

Most depth halves options will cost around 200k. Prefer Moylan at 10-15 games a season then someone like Matt Frawley on half the amount

Some players get paid $150-200k and don’t play any games at all

He’s doing good

Think we are talking about different things man. We were discussing the talakai no try. Are you talking about the Ronnie challenge?

Oh yeah I must have lost track, yeah that’s what I meant

Talakai one just one of those annoying but black and white ones

 

[Western Sharkie]

Much better game.. added value with his touches and was constantly involved. No shtty execution either

I’ve reported this comment.
Who are you and what have you done with Wizard???



Good to see Moylan showing some form and durability.

Developing good combinations and the team is benefiting.

Mate it was that arsey it'd make Benji blush. Travesty it was disallowed.
