Premiership Final - Auckland v Tasman (Free entry)

[Donsteppa]

Poor scrum move from Ta$man against a backline a man short

[KiwiMurph]

Awful from Ta$man.

[ACT Crusader]

Some shocking attack by the Mako$.

[Yeetyaah]

Aucklands game to lose here. They've played brilliantly during the 2 yellow card periods.

Almost 20 minutes (in the second half) of 15 on 14 and they didn't score any points?

That jump from outside and catch it rule is stupid

Why?

I'll have a go.

It's an unnecessary distortion of the principle of playing the game in the field of play.

It opens up stupid questions like: can I run, unimpeded outside the line, past the touch judge and sky camera crew then jump into the field of play to take a pass or tackle someone? Why not?

Duncan McKenzie for the mighty takaka club side in the 80's used to run outside the line for kick-offs and totally blindside the kick receiver. The receiver got smashed, dangerously, because he wasn't watching who was coming from behind the teenage mothers with their prams

It's not easy for a touch judge to accurately judge.

Basically if you are outside the field of play, get your fat arse inside it to participate in the game like everyone has had to do for 100 years, ( in all sports).

I'm having nightmare flashbacks watching Christie box kick

[ACT Crusader]

When does the rugby start?

[Donsteppa]

Neither side knows how to use their wingers in space tonight...

[Siam]

@Donsteppa they've got kicking the ball away down pat though!

[ACT Crusader]

Renton has been massive tonight.

[KiwiMurph]

Why did Hickey not pass

[Chris B.]

Shit box kick by Ruru - no-one retires - Auckland recover. Briant ignores it!

[ACT Crusader]

@Chris-B Ruru took 3 steps back and plenty of Auckland players in front too.

So we have one eye commentary here and the tv. Nice.

[Steven Harris]

Nico Jones has been superb

Don’t worry you have Briant in your pocket

[gt12]

I thought that was a lucky penalty - no roll at all

[KiwiMurph]

Lam was poor. He really faded late in the season.
