Crusaders vs. Hurricanes
-
Case in point - knock on, clearly offside, deliberately plays at ball. Decision is scrum.
-
Is that a dangerous tackle these days ?
Fuck I’m getting confused
-
Rugby is fucked. Twice there were clear offsides from knock ons and both were called scrum. If you aren't going to rule on it properly change the fucking law so it is a scrum only. We have already seen that law ruled inconsistently at the business end of two major tournaments at crucial times.
And seriously that penalty for the Laumape tackle is just a joke. Just cancel the whole thing if hard tackles are now illegal.

Crusaders should be plugging the corners - even from 30 metres out. Things are only going three or four phases before someone turns it over. Pin the Canes back and make them use their lineout.
Canes should be running it from anywhere and making as many fancy offloads as possible. Where's their sense of adventure?!!!

If it's the one I am thinking about it was an excellent call.
The red player (A) knocked it on and by the time the other red player (B) picked it up the (A) was ahead of the B. Therefore B was played onside by A.
Scrum looked the right call to me.

How did Havili not score there. Jules made him look like a child.
-
FFS penalising a contest where nothing untoward happened. This is a joke.

Gavin Hastings tears into his microphone in 2015 spooking refs from actually making a decision on accidental Offside.
