Not straight lineout throws don't seem to be checked for anymore. That last Brumbies one was an absolute shocker

They only rule on not straight throws if you contest

Reason to get up. Fair then. Looked an absolute shocker

[KiwiMurph]

Strong play by Brumbies

Highlanders are gonna pay the price if they can't get ball and territory

[Bones]

Was that Tangitau that bit in when he didn't need to?

He'd be a shit midfielder.

[KiwiInLondon]

Why do our backs insist on always shorting up and inside rather than holding. It creates so much space on the edge. There was cover on the inside

[antipodean]

Ref absolutely robbed Tavatavanawai there. Brumbies player on the ground and Timoci straight on the ball. Terrible call.

And the Comms wanking on about having to release it you make the tackle. Which he didn't.

[KiwiMurph]

Brumbies breakdown steal work is so good

[KiwiInLondon]

The breakdown work is so lazy. The forwards just aren’t fit enough

[Bones]

Then muirhead does exactly the same and wins the penalty

Love your gumption JW

[antipodean]

So often they're the beneficiary of blatant home town calls.

[Bones]

Kicked through by blue. Penalty red.

[Steven Harris]

@Bones exactly the same as Tavatanawai , no clear relase hmmm
Get the feeling the Landers are not going to get a lot of love from Way

[Landers92]

Jeez this is scrappy. Basic handling and ball retention is a real struggle at the moment

[Mattasaurus]

the Breakdown is a shambles

Unless NZ gets absorbed by Australia, chances of NZ teams winning under Way are very minimal.

[Landers92]

Great work TK and Lasaqa. Beautiful to watch

[Tim]

@Bones Kicked through the ruck? Thought a Brumbies player dived on ball at ruck on halfway too.

[KiwiMurph]

Landers got away with one there

Hit a Landers player after the Brumbies kick

[Landers92]

Harrison wanking on like Slipper won the penalty against Ma’u. That penalty was on DLB. What’s happening to our scrum ffs

[KiwiMurph]

It's admirable how many Super seasons DLB has managed to eek out - he was past it 5 years ago
