'I saw it mate': Wighton on the controversial 'six again' call
« on: October 07, 2019, 04:09:33 PM »
Jack Wighton saw the signal for "six again" - if he hadn't, the Canberra Raiders playmaker says there is no way he would have gone down with the ball. So when the Sydney Roosters told the eventual Clive Churchill Medal winner to hand the ball over after he surrendered in a tackle, he thought they were trying to trick him. Referee Ben Cummins has come under fire for changing a call midway through a play in the NRL grand final at Sydney Olympic Park on Sunday night. Cummins signalled "six again" before changing the call to "last tackle" but Wighton didn't hear the call. The Roosters regained possession and ultimately scored the decisive try just two plays later.
