unbelievable call. From then on the crowd was nuts. Great atmosphere for a small crowd. Saints fans really should get to the footy more and get off the sofa - just so soft.

Seriously, whathe? Holding the ball is based on prior opportunity, having possession, and correct disposal. He'd run 5+ steps, that's surely prior. He held it for those 5+ steps, so that's possession. So then, how is that, in any possible way, correct disposal?
Defies belief.
At a guess, I would suggest the umpire believed that the tackle wasn't stuck. Weller hit him, the ball went free, Weller never really grabbed him.

still has to release the ball legally after that many steps though. imagine someone getting it off half back, running all the way to his forward line, then getting hit/tackled like that and it not get paid HTB. it's the same thing, prior opportunity is prior opportunity

Out of all the decisions I didn't mind this one. It was more of a bump than a tackle.
Plus they have the whole 'knocked free in the tackle' which counts as play on but also completely contradicts the whole illegal disposal rule.
But I digress.

To me he was going to kick it, got dumped and missed the ball. Free kick every time. Not that it matters...

It's still incorrectly disposed of.
How is that not holding the ball? Grimes takes on and beats opponent, Weller tackles, Grimes incorrect disposal, Weller releases. Just because it was with A grade force doesn't mean it's not a tackle.

Maybe I'm imagining things, but didn't Weller lay another tackle at the other end of the ground, where he went to ground? I swear it was a different tackle, maybe not.
He straight up mugged him, and bit a chunk out of the players neck before disposing his limp body.
Ok buddy, we get it, you've been taking pointers...

Exactly. And unless you are stripped or dumped AS SOON as you touch the ball, an incorrect disposal after having a chance to get rid of it, should be GONE every single time. If a player is streaming up the wing with the ball, 2-3 bounces, and the tackler can't stick a tackle but grabs an arm and the ball flicks loose, or a pressure touch that causes the player in possession to fek up the bounce of the ball, or a tackle slips but you trip over and spill the ball..... YOU ARE FKKKN DONE SON! go on. get out. gon get!

There was another one. Hope we can get a gif of it too!
HTB is dependant in a legal tackle being established

Pretty sure it was in the 2nd sometime and it was that scrawny campaigner grimes again=
Not quite.
Just ask Jay Schultz when he was at the tigers how hard Hamill tackles.
And least Grimes remembered the rest of the match and played the following week.
Schultz didnt.
