Good try!

Strange with a good ball, Kris running hard and some silky skills
The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

Surely you can - the issue is he was offside.
I agree.

Strange is looking far more dominant this week already.

I like how Strange is taking on the line when he has the ball
He's already more assertive than he was in week 1.

9th min TRY RAIDERS to Danny Levi. Kris gets the offload away to Savage and passes back inside. Converted Fogarty.

Hodgson used to do it all the time. Bateman was offside.

I dont think you can actually
They started cracking down on markers slapping at the arm last year. Pretty sure you're not allowed to do it
See that’s the thing - I agree they’re ruling it that way, but there’s nothing in the rule that makes it illegal that I’m aware of?

What if the dummy half is slow and screwing around. If you’re onside why can’t you do it?

Yeah i dont know... but it's definitely a thing now that they'll penalise.

Strange can play and has a nice left foot step. Very much like Wighton but he's playing on his inferior side!

Rapa in the right position three - well done

I'm liking the use of the backs to make the metres out of our end - the Penrith blueprint

Strange, Savage and Kris having good games
