Canterbury v Otago
-
@Bovidae I hate it when refs give penalties for rubbish like that. They should just call play on when players do that.
@African-Monkey Good to see the refs telling the opposition not to yell out gibberish at the lineout as well. It was mentioned that Doleman warned Ta$man last week. I see that shit in 1st XV rugby too.
-
Iāve never really understood calling out the line out...your allowed a quick huddle...why not just tell everyone then?
-
Thought Brendan Pickerill was much improved in controlling the game tonite. Didn't like the way Drummond milked that penalty but he and Mackay gave it everything. Hard loss for them. Cameron was good too. But Josh Hohneck was motm for me. Josh Ioane was a mixed bag but some nice touches. Nasi Manu great too
-
@taniwharugby Some knock-ons missed too.
I wasn't happy that Pickerill rewarded Drummond for deliberately passing into a player bending down so the not straight from the resulting lineout was justice.
Speaking of Drummond, he was shedding a tear at the end, such was his disappointment.

Blame Gregan
Unless there is a change in laws, I donāt think the ref can do anything different but award a penalty.

Iāve enjoyed the fact the refs have let some of that stuff go, also havenāt pinged players trapped in the ruck for not retreating etc

I have seen refs call the halfback out, and tell them to play on.

There was plenty of standing and fist pumping at the end there
pretty much seals Otago into a home semi.
I know HB have an eye on the shield challenge next week, but they also have a home semi and possibly final to play for too

Yeah, a conundrum for HB, all right. The team named to play BOP tomorrow is not full strength, probably with an eye on the Shield challenge next week.
If Otago had lost to Canterbury last night then would probably get away with an understrength team v BOP and loss would not hurt their chances too much of finishing top. But now ....

You would expect an immediate repudiation of such a heinous claim aye.
He has hundreds of children, so might just be busy. -
Damn, the big question is not what is going on in Canterbury club rugby, nor whether Ruben Thorne is actually a worse coach than player, but whether these poor results have been caused by the fern just being too damn mean to Canterbury.

Good to see you acknowledging the fern is full of mean fluffybunnies, but I donāt think the fern caused the poor results. Canterbury are just a bit shit.

@Crazy-Horse
Could actually add that to our motto.Awful analysis, incorrect conclusions, zero insight
Wrong about pretty much everything and full of mean fluffybunnies.I like it.
Yes Canterbury are a bit shit - but don't take it personally. I now know how sensitive you coppers are.
Rueben seems to be trying to mirror his playing career. I won't elaborate (and yes he was a better player than me and possibly a better coach).

Yeah they are rather bland. Time will tell if it's the coach or the players or both. Something is not right down there. Any ferners from Christchurch care to share their views on what is going on?
