Sharks vs Blues

[number9]

Why the heck are we so flat? We don't look or feel motivated.

Have you seen the Blues the last decade?

@Tim if you could just mention how SBW couldn't break a tackle if he tried and add on something about Akira being the new Shields that'd be good.

@Stargazer said in Sharks vs Blues:

The Sharks lose Nkosi, who has gone off with a neck injury.

Commentator says (unless I heard it wrong) that Nkosi can run 10m in 1.55 seconds. That's utter nonsense.

[Bones]

Borderline yellow/penalty I reckon.

[antipodean]

How clear does the ref need to be to these spastic South Africans that he wants to see what happens afterwards?

[Stargazer]

Neck roll Papali'i penalised, but it looked like the Sharks player had a Blues player by the neck, too (on the ground). Penalty only. It was Rieko on the ground; are they looking at him retaliating? Nothing in it.

[Bones]

The saffa has kicked him and Rieko is an egg but there's nothing in it. Carry on.

[antipodean]

Rieko takes offence to having his own neck pulled at by the Sharks player.

[Bones]

@antipodean @Stargazer all I saw was the saffa trying to kick, I didn't see a saffa grabbing any neck?

[Stargazer]

Apparently it was 3 black they were looking at, not Rieko. Utter nonsense. Move on with the game.

[ShadowTrooper]

@Stargazer These stoppages are really a blight on our game - just get on with it after 5 mins of fannying around geezus

[KiwiMurph]

On the upside I reckon the ref has been good.

Excellent ref.

[Tim]

@Bones The guy who got cleaned out had Ioane by the neck when he got cleaned out.

[Bones]

@Tim Missed it completely. There's a surprise. Cheers

[Stargazer]

Blues don't know how to defend a line-out maul. Sharks in again. This could be a loooooong game.

[Bones]

Who is the 13 again? That was pretty yuck.

[KiwiMurph]

@Stargazer try being a Blues fan in the last decade.

[Stargazer]

@KiwiMurph Yeah, I hoped that had changed with new coaches. Apparently not (yet).
