Message: [QUOTE="Super Freak, post: 3322298, member: 8536"] Watching the replay, there were 4 blatant penalties the Eels were denied that would have changed the game. The first one I don't actually have a problem with as Moses played for the penalty. He was chasing a kick, Kikau changes his line and acts as a blocker and collides with Kikau. Moses was playing for the penalty, but that's been a penalty all year and it was a penalty last week when Morris was penalized for doing the same thing. I don't have a problem with that not being a penalty, but when it's been a penalty all year, you have to blow it. That would have given the Eels a shot at goal right in front. The second one is with 12 minutes remaining when Eels made that break down right side. Ferguson kicks the ball back in to Penisini. Naden is chasing from behind and instead of Penisini being allowed to have a clear grab at the ball which he is entitled to, Naden instead interferes with him. How he does it is interesting. He wraps one arm around Penisini and the other arm he uses to bat away the ball, which he does and it goes forward. But Penisini is effectively tackled without the ball. How the officials missed this is baffling. It should have been 10 in the bin and at the very least, Eels ball for a knock on but nope it's play on. The third one is when Gutherson is attempting to go over in the corner, there was a clear strip of the ball by the Panthers defender which wasn't in the act of scoring and with more than one in the tackle. Penalty and a chance to level the scores is what the Eels should have got. Nope, play on. The fourth one is with under two minutes remaining and Capewell bats down the ball and when he regathers the ball, he kicks it away to deliberately waste time. That's a penalty, but nope Klein ignores that as well. Meanwhile the Panthers certainly weren't denied penalties when there was an opportunity to give them one. [/QUOTE]
