Hurricanes vs Highlanders

[Tim]

So much for all that talk about how Tompkinson was the new Brian Lima.

Christ the rugby columnists talk some shit.

Noticed this ref is calling tackle release before tackle complete. If you released him player would be off. Seems strange

Very hard on the knee on the ground rule

[African Monkey]

@Tim A very strange comparison.

[Tim]

@Tim I mean, this was a guy who didn't stand out in the 2nd division of the NPC.

[Toddy]

Ardie has been rubbish. Looks like a 7 playing 8.

Coles has been pretty good. Really physical so far.

Blackwell is such a midget. He's into everything but is just so undersized.

[mariner4life]

Really warming to us taking ALB, Laumape, and Goodhue to the world cup, and then one other to hold tackle bags and play the gimme game.

@Paekakboyz said in Hurricanes vs Highlanders:

@Stockcar86 agree it wasn't a red. So it's only red card worthy stuff that can be reviewed?

* The Citing Commissioner has the power to cite any player
for an act of foul play which in the opinion of the Citing Commissioner
warranted the player concerned being sent off. This is known
as the red card test.

Although if the citing commissioner thinks it's a possible red, then it's DnD to be not red but yellow, you can get an off field yellow/warning

Crotty, ALB, Goodhue and Laumape. SBW can stay at home.

[antipodean]

This ref needs better assistants.

[Machpants]

Yeah that was worse than fajitas

[Stargazer]

@antipodean One of the assistants is the same local ref, who was so terrible last week in Palmerston North.

Laumape may be picking a pretty good season to hit his career best form

Looks like I was a year early with my Super player predictions

[mariner4life]

@Stargazer yea I'm happy with crotty holding the tackle bags

Unless he is just going to get hurt doing it

I am right on @Rancid-Schnitzel's bandwagon and truly believe Jordie should be the 4th midfielder. He's not a natural fit in the back three.

[KiwiMurph]

Ioane has got worse as the game has gone on.

Based on semi pro NPC a couple of years ago?

[Machpants]

Beaudy have Jordie the older brother glare after he missed the shot that Jordie turned down

[Tim]

Why wasn't that a penalty for offside?

[Tim]

Shit option from J Barrett.
