They made a decent attempt at finishing them off only to be called back for 'obstruction'...does anyone really know what's going on with this ruling? The fact that Broncos scored after receiving a dubious penalty for a 'high tackle' when they were deep down in their own territory when scores were tied wasn't of much benefit to them either.
TBH I don't think the refs even know what is the go with the obstrution rule this season. With the crack down sholder charges attacking the upper sholder and neck region, there are going to plenty of those type of high tackle pens during the first month. Until they figure out that they will **** up one of best aspects of game, for something that not really dangerous unless you attack someone neck or head. Most of time shoulder charges go wrong is when a player is falling it anyway.
They didn't have much of a clue last season either. The roosters were all over the Broncos at the end of the first half, during which the disallowed try was scored if my memory serves me correctly. It's hard to predict what would have happened after that if they go into half-time with a good lead. The 'high tackle' lead to a Bronco's try that gave them the 6 point margin at the end.
