Chiefs vs Hurricanes

Tim

@Gunner Oh it was certainly stupid to shoulder charge. He put himself in the frame for a card.

Crucial

@Crucial He brushed over his back. Not his head or shoulders. A penalty should suffice.

It's a bit like that quandary of what to do if you see a player throw a deliberate haymaker that fails to connect well.
There's no doubt that the action is illegal even if the consequences aren't as bad as they could have been

No Quarter

That's some hometown bullshit right there.

Jackson isn't reffing.

@Tim Certainly now seems, as Birds charge didn't even warrant a look

Tim

That's fucked if that's not a card tonight.

What's happened?
I've flicked over to see what the Warriors are up to. TMO checking on a possible Warriors try.

Your thoughts on the late shoulder charge from Bird on TJP?

Crucial

No doubts that the Chiefs are contributing a lot to the niggle but the difference is probably that they are doing it quietly while the ref has TJP jabbering in his ear and probably annoying the fuck out of him

Try Chiefs, I think Barlow is winning the 9 battle.

Gunner

Pulu scores in the corner to finish the half.
Going up stairs but I don't see a problem.

You are taking the piss now.

I actually missed it. Getting ready for work. Will rewind in a moment

Bird should have got a card given the precedent set.

About which part? That the Chiefs are niggling or that TJP is being a gobby little dick?

Fair enough. Funny thing is the ref saw it and his response was to give both captains a "talking too" about the niggle. Crazy referring after the YCs he'd been dishing out.

Chiefs have looked better to be fair, McKenzie's kicking has seemed better than Barrett. TJ has struggled with poor ball and has been throwing potatoes at Barrett.

I think Nehe has looked solid at the back. BBBR playing well.

KiwiMurph

Yeah it seems crazy that the TMO couldnt interject on the bird shoulder.

TKB absolutely dominating Perenara so far. I must say DMac has been very impressive in the wet so far.

No doubt. Fatialofa gets one for no arms and then a no arm tackle off the ball isn't even a penalty. Absolute joke.

I'm assuming if the ref didn't see it the call is the TMO? Can the on field ref overule the TMO from the replay?
