Gotta love the Beaver!! ......and then Messam fucks it up

I'm not sure there was even a gap there - just the look on Beaver's face said "Fuck it, I've decided there's a gap, so there's going to be a FUCKING GAP!"

[Crash]

The old Beaver still has some wheels alright

[Crash]

It's the Beaver show!

What did Jacko just say to Cruden?

Something like "Don't talk like that to ... ? ... again, or I'll bin you"

And Cruden takes the first opportunity to apologise.
TJP - take note... first of all, don't be a dick. Secondly - if it slips out, apologise.

Disappointing the Chiefs didn't manage to score a try in that passage of play. Only penalties thus far.

[Crash]

Beaver the most attacking runner by far

No red button on pay-as-you-go NowTV... thank fuck for RugbyPass

Even I was hoping for the stormers to score then. The chiefs were so far offside they may as well wear blue jerseys. It's fucking embarrassing

[gt12]

It's a virus, now the stormers are just as bad.

[Stargazer]

Oh fuck.

[gt12]

You're kidding.

[gt12]

Come on Jaco.

Fuck you TMO!!!!

[gt12]

Is that TMO a Saffer?

[gt12]

That's it. I think I might be done watching rugby.

[antipodean]

Without making judgments about that particular ruling, I really don't like the partisan nature of the TMOs. Particularly in South Africa.

[Stargazer]

I guess it's consistent to give YC for 'shoulder against head' contact, but it shows this rule is over the top.

Edit: After some thought, the YC was unfair. YC/RC is for intentional or reckless. This looked accidental. Penalty would have been enough.

Yeah - Jaco trying his best to be sensible, the TMO... well...

@Kruse said in Stormers V Chiefs:

Jaco seems fine... I'm not particularly optimistic about the assistants or TMO though.
