2014 NRL Laws and Interpretations:

Drawn Game: "If scores are equal at the conclusion of
normal time, a period of extra time shall
follow whereby the first scorer of any point
or points will immediately be declared
the winner.
This will be for a maximum period of 10
minutes (5 minutes each half) except in Final
Series Matches.
If the scores are still level at the end of the
period of extra time, then the game shall be
declared a draw (except in Finals matches,
where the match will continue until such time
as one team scores a point or points.)."

Damn...two extra No's and we could be confident these rules were endorsed by the great Gus Gould himself.

That would have been plagiarism.
I played safe.

Well maybe they hadn't written the 2014 rule book back then.

Which is precisely what happened. Dogs scored first (before the 10 minute max occured), therefore they win. If neither of Manly or dogs scored in that 10 minute period it would have gone into extra, extra time until the first team scored. This is what happened in 2010 with Braith's FG. Scores were still level at the end of extra 10 minute time (golden point time) so they played extra time and SKD scored first - game over and fantastic Roosters win!

If I were a Manly fan I'd be more annoyed at the stupid rule regarding a ball hitting a ref and gifting the ball back to the attacking team. What's to stop someone deliberately kicking near the ref to get an extra set of six?

Well apparently the Dogs knew of that rule and used it to their favour. I read an article online that jnr Grub told Snr grub about it and used it at a time when it was their last tackle at an important moment.

Yep first scorer in extra time wins, no different to years gone by.

I've had this song in my head all day. If one more person bleats to me about how their team has been robbed/stitched up/badly done by, they will be subjected to this:

Well they need to change that rule NOW. It would explain why all the bullcheat players were in the ref's face demanding the ball back when it happened.
