All Blacks v BI Lions Test #2
-
Congrats to Lions fans. Your guys made bloody tough work of it but got it done in the end.
Sure the ref made up a penalty to give the Lions the kick to win it, but he didn't cost us the match. That responsibility is 100% on SBWs shoulders. You. Fucking. Idiot. Please never ever play for the ABs again you asshole.
Bleh.

gutting, but I guess we didnt actually do much to warrant winning that game, lots of dumb plays.
Lions just wanted it more

Well played lions , deserved their win ,
We played some dumb rugby and probably deserved what we got

First All Blacks red card in 50 years - since Sir COlin in 1967...
That fluffybunny shouldn't be mentioned in the same sentence as Pinetree .

@No-Quarter It's a common interpretation of the law by NH refs. I can't understand how it hasn't been clarified before now as while it makes sense for catching kicks, when a player chooses to jump to catch a poor pass or just because, they shouldn't benefit from that choice.

That's crazy, I've never seen anything like it. Makes an absolute farce of the game.

Cruden did more to lose that tonight than SBW. One brain fart is forgivable but repeated brain farts under pressure is not.
Well done Lions for winning that - they held their nerve and got there in the end. Also well done to most of the ABs who tried their best to try and stop about 4-5 guys from flushing that.
I don't put Beauden's kicking squarely on him, selectors have tolerated it for too long and haven't seen it as an issue.

Well, shit.
Firstly well done Lions, there were two good attacking movements in the game, they were both yours and both resulted in tries. You tried to lose with some brainless play, but held your nerve.
For us, poor. Couldn't do anything against their defense, and kicked away all our ball. Barrett was shit, Cruden no better. The attacking kicks were shit and just gave away our ball.
Realistically we were outplayed and i can't think of a good All Black to be honest. Lions better in most facets, Itoje and O'Brien were huge.
Fuck you SBW

Looks way worse on replay. He was coming in legit and the picture changed by the space closing. He should have pulled out but there was no way that was deliberate.
Just about to say swap Rieko for Laumape but Kaino?Seriously Crucial? Does this fucker have to kill someone for you to criticise him?
Thankfully Lions shooting themselves rather well in the foot. Not sure how long it will last.
Dammit.
Just look at the wider shot and imagine if Watson had come free. SBW was doing the right thing to come in and cover but didn't change what he was doing when Watson stayed wrapped up.
I've said it was his fault and that the red was deserved.
Just think allegations of a deliberate shoulder charge are off the mark.Who gives a shit? It was fucking clumsy and stupid and has likely cost NZ the match. I can't believe you're even trying to defend him.
Where am I defending him?
