This is an ABC podcast.
Hello, Cobbers. HG Nelson here with a little bit of an update and housekeeping notes for today's episode. Obviously, after Magic Round, everybody needs to have a sit down and a rest and the bludge is no different. Roy and myself are off fishing, the flathead are running and we're hooking. Take it away, sumpster!
Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to bump. It's time to thump. It's time to bludge. The best of bludging on the blind side.
Now, this comes from Dane. While watching the Panthers Broncos game, I was shocked. After stopping the game to check on what happened to Felderice Walsh, the referee then changed his ruling of a turnover to a penalty, despite the collision happening a couple of plays prior. I was under the impression that the referee could not change his decision after a tackle was completed and the next play had commenced. However, I've been informed that the rule has changed, has been changed to allow a referee to give a penalty after the fact. My question is, how far back can the referees go? Does this rule change apply to penalties that has yet gone unnoticed by the officials? As a Tiger supporter, I'd love to see the boys tip the ref off to Terry Yam's errant forearm to Ellery Hanley's face in 1988.
Well, who wouldn't?
Who wouldn't? I'd love to see a penalty given for that. I'd love to see Terry sent off.
Can I ask, what's your understanding of this rule?
I don't know how far it can go back. See, I was... Retrospectively, how far can you go back? One play, two play, three plays? I mean, it's the biggest belief.
I did, oddly enough, watching that match... It's not good for the game. Watching that match, I did think it was hard to follow what was going on there because you thought, oh, they stopped the game because the player's injured, you know, and it's down on the ground writhing, knocked out.
Yeah.
But it wasn't that at all.
No.
No, I don't like it. I think if you've missed it, when you've missed it and the team's rewarded for getting away with something. I mean, otherwise you wouldn't have anyone. I mean, Jared wouldn't have a career, would he? I mean, if the law applied to Jared. No, he'd be off from the start. He'd be off right from the start, yeah. For a pinch, it's the last year.
The last game, yeah.
Sorry, Jared, you're off, mate. What for? Because of what happened two weeks ago. Oh, okay. Fair enough. I mean, it can't work. It's impractical. How can a coach prepare not knowing how many players are going to be sent off as soon as they run out of the park?
Cedric Sump in the soundproof booth with a reminder that this week, Roy and HG are up and about in the ABC Ute as part of their commitment to feral pest eradication across the nation. Enjoy this assortment of new and old from the online catacombs. Lodge on, blindsiders.
Now, do you think that some of the large, incredible coffers that the Rugby League has could go to rural and regional Rugby League? I mean, I know this is heading off in a new direction. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Rural and regional Rugby League and solve some of the endemic problems that beset the great code, like Jumping Castle blowing up, like pie warming turning on the urns and stuff like that, that they could have a sort of like a Mr. or Ms., or Mrs Fixit in the area?
Yeah, yeah.
Who could come along and do those things for a modest fee, maybe a couple of hundred an hour?
Sure, sure. Well, I think so. I think anyone can approach the Rugby League if they have a good idea and want sponsorship. I'd like to see, and I've mentioned this to the Man of Feathers, something like a Churchill Fellowship that the Rugby League could offer. It's a brilliant idea. Well, I've raised this because I was at the point of applying for one for myself. Now, I recall last year, it might have been late last year actually, I think you took yourself off to Spain, which I thought was a great thing to do. I myself, I ended up in Turkey because I got a call from the German Research Foundation, Dr. Lee Clare, who's working on… Ah, digging up. Digging up of… The roots of rugby league.
