Blues v Hurricanes

[African Monkey]

@antipodean Yeah flankers need to adjust as they're clearing the ball very quickly from the scrum.

[African Monkey]

@Chris If only we had a rolling maul.

[Machpants]

That was so a blues knock on

How’s that?

Should be penalty try for collapsing

[African Monkey]

@Kirwan Decent. Should have scored from it though tbh.

You can collapse beyond the try line. The reason is a maul can only exist in the field of play, which doesn't include the in-goal.

How offside has Ardie been?

[Chris B.]

Jesus - looks like Coventry's actually coached a driving maul this week - almost!

[Stargazer]

Wow, that was too easy for Lam. Where was the defence?

[Chris]

That was soft Blues

[African Monkey]

And just like that the Canes are level. They don't need much haha.

[SammyC]

Soft tackle from Blake Gibson

[Kirwan]

Damn, we are looking good too.

[Higgins]

Ab out 15% of possession and the Canes are not behind

[antipodean]

Pretty clear Laumape didn't release the tackled player. Poor refereeing and very poor tackling; result is Lam waltzes through to a try between the posts.

Was just thinking the blues need more than 7 points as a reflection of the lopsided possession

[Tim]

@SammyC Yep. Poor defence.

[African Monkey]

@antipodean Still doesn't excuse the poor tackling.
