They were all superb deliveries into the danger area and caused us lots of problems.
I am amazed that they didn’t score from one of them.

Post by: drfchound on April 25, 2022, 08:18:25 am: I believe I am right in saying that the ball doesn’t have to actually touch the quadrant dude.
Part of the ball just has to be seen to overhang the line of the quadrant.
I get what you mean about what advantage do they get.

Post by: Donnywolf on April 25, 2022, 09:01:57 am: Get no advantage at all ... Rules should be changed to a box of say 500 millimetres and all ball has to be in it

Strange how they always try it on but mainly where the linos are not i.e. South East and North West Corners

Pointless.

The referee seemed to have it in for Gordon, never gave him anything all game, even when Trent pushed him over on the corner of the box when he'd done him for pace!
