Early controversy rocked Queensland Country Bank Stadium when the Eels were awarded a try in VERY polarising circumstances! 🤯 NRLCowboysEels NRL
Early controversy rattled Queensland Country Bank Stadium when the Eels were awarded a try in polarising scenes.
The forward pass was missed by both the referee and touch judge, and the Bunker cannot ruled on forward passes."We might find this ball travelled about a metre and a half forward, but we can't judge on that after the fact," Storm great Cameron Smith added.to book a spot in next week's grand final, Smith addressed the fallout from the controversial call.
"Mitchell Moses was under pressure and he felt like he had to get the ball away. When he spun, I believe it came out in a forward motion," he said."You can focus on that point and say it was the difference but at the same time, the Cowboys had plenty of chances to score points and made some errors after the missed call."I don't think the players and coaches will look back and say that is why they lost.
While Smith agreed that the Cowboys had a right to be upset with the call, he said the decision did not define the outcome of the match."There were a few mistakes on the pitch tonight and one of them was missed and you look at it in isolation and wonder how that happened but it was missed. It was allowed to be played on. The bunker cannot rule on forward passes after the event. It was a try.
"The Cowboys, unfortunately, were not good enough tonight. If you look at that as an isolated incident, you can think that if they scored the try, kicked the goal, go up by six, lose by four and that is the reason, but I don't think so."For a daily dose of the best of the breaking news and exclusive content from Wide World of Sports, subscribe to our newsletter by
