I said after the lions 2017 farce I partially fell out of love with the sport.
After the first 10 mins of the second half, the completion is nearly there.
If you can’t celebrate a try until the ball is kicked off to restart the match, how can you generate any excitement.
Game is lost.
She said it was grounded.
Should be end of story no?
Unless he showed her a knock on or foul play in build up.
Instead they had a contradicting narrative. He says held up ,she says grounded. We cant carry on like this.

When christie came on we really tightened up in the centre of the park which I liked. Actually some good crash balls before backs ball

@ACT-Crusader Doesn't looking too shabby for a guy who has been spending most of the last couple of years trying to crack the big time in the NFL.
Jordan Petaia was over there too, which shocked me.

Well that was a tough watch at times but at least we gave it a lash.
LRZ is our standout operator, shame he's stuck out on the wing.
NZ too quick and powerful for Wales to cope with, shame to see Reece getting on the score sheet - I'd rather have lost by more without him getting over the line. -

My biggest gripe is how much time these interventions are takin, slowing the game down and therefore removing the fatigue factor.
They need to limit the time the TMO has on try rulings. 90 second to show conclusive evidence to overturn the ref's call or the on-field decision stands.

@Jet straight after a dubious knock on shown AFTER the conversion.
They are allowed to review after the conversion now.
One of the stupidest things that has entered rugby over the last few years has been the whole “quick kick the conversion so they can’t review it.” Like it’s some game of cat and mouse with the on field ref.
So it’s good that they can review at any time from a “let’s get it right” perspective. But how poor does it look for the sport when kicks are still being allowed when the TMO can still make an intervention. It’s actually laughable when you think about it.

Ruben Love did well enough at Fullback. I hope he gets more outings there.
Nice injections into the line on attack, but Jordan would be eviscerated for the charged down kick and shelling of a few catches.
Think Love is getting "new guy" leeway.

Very disappointed with the Allblacks.
Very disappointed with Rugby in general.
The sport is in a sorry state.
Ireland vs the Boks kicking off now.
And I will be surprised if a card does NOT play a big part in the game. Thats where we are at.
-
Ireland will have to pull a rabbit out of the hat to win this one. But hey they’ll be getting my support
-
@ACT-Crusader They certainly will as it was a match between Wales and the All Blacks that's now finished.
Buy, hey, the luck of the Irish and all that.
-
@Victor-Meldrew probably true, but he was no worse than Ratima tonight, man has that guy gone backwards…

Was he injured? Why was he taken off so early?
