Confusion reigned after Moses\u2019 kick as he argued with referee Liam Kennedy that the game should\u2019ve immediately ended.<\/p>\n

It mattered not in the end, as Ronald Volkman slotted the conversion and the Eels clinched victory, but Moses wasn\u2019t happy straight after the foul call.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe game\u2019s over, we don\u2019t want the penalty,\u201d Moses said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s f***ing bulls**t. We\u2019ve won the game.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kennedy responded: \u201cThat\u2019s the rules of the game, mate. Now it\u2019s an extra two points.\u201d<\/p>\n
The NRL said Kennedy officiated the play correctly under the rules.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe penalty after the field goal was the correct decision,\u201d NRL head of football Graham Annesley said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe fouled team is entitled to the additional penalty given there had been an act of foul play.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s important to note had the kick missed or hit the upright the game would have been over. The laws specifically say play does not continue after the kick.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Talk about crazy scenes in Townsville.
