Chiefs vs Bulls

[Tim]

What are the exact rules? Pretty lucky not to get red.

[Stargazer]

@tim "stiff arm" isn't in the rules; I think "force" is, but not sure.

[mariner4life]

A shame? Get. Fucked. Cooper you complete cock.

[gt12]

There is no midfield, so of course we need a silly chip kick.

[Donsteppa]

Thought that was a classic case of going for the tackle when the player falls over. Yellow card fine with me. I know you can make a strong case for a red under the current laws, but they're partly why I'm still clinging to the cricket season too.

[Hooroo]

We Suuuuuuuck at Rugby. Retallick excepted.

How did we beat the Blues???

[mariner4life]

Well, that was ordinary all round by us. Fuck me.

[gt12]

My goodness, umm, straight ref?

Stiff-arm is in the laws. It's dangerous play.

[Gunner]

Finally a kick that comes off for the Chiefs.

I suppose if you throw enough stones at the window, one will hit eventually.

Good finish Alaimalo

[ShadowTrooper]

Alaimalo - beats 3 to score!!

[gt12]

Law 9.13 I think:

A player must not tackle an opponent early, late or dangerously. Dangerous tackling includes, but is not limited to, tackling or attempting to tackle an opponent above the line of the shoulders even if the tackle starts below the line of the shoulders.

[No Quarter]

Great finish young fella.

[gt12]

Fuck me, Fa’auli with the kick? He’ll be there all year now.

[gt12]

Needed that kick, dammit.

34-28 with five left.

[ShadowTrooper]

TTT better than Webber already

Another example of great coaching...

[Stargazer]

Another terrible high shot, this time on Mmac. Not spotted?

Looks a millions times better. He needs to be starting

Nope, 9.12:

A player must not physically or verbally abuse anyone. Physical abuse includes, but is not limited to, biting, punching, contact with the eye or eye area, striking with any part of the arm (including stiff-arm tackles), shoulder, head or knee(s), stamping, trampling, tripping or kicking.
