@anonymous I hate the two-goes at going forward rule too. If you stop going forward why should you get another go?

You're only supposed to if it stops for less than 5 seconds the first time. I'm not entirely convinced that's how it is officiated in practice.

@bones but thats always the case, and the benefit of being the attacking team, you control the maul.

How often do you hear a ref say a team has taken a maul down and not penalise them?

@gt12 One of Steve Hansen's masterstrokes during the end of his tenure....
@african-monkey Huge goof to take him instead of Karl T, forcing Ofa T to cover loosehead off the bench. Karl T missed most of Super Rugby with meningitis, but got back into good condition and was in huge form for North Harbour.

That was a shit call for the Webber binning. But fuck we are good. So well drilled.

@bones I've heard if often, but is clarifying it was taken down by the attacking team so no penalty?

You're certainly good at taking your opportunities ... no matter how they're handed to you.

To be honest despite the decisions , there is daylight between these 2 teams in terms of most facets .., you could give the chiefs a 20 point head start and would still back the Saders ..

@tim Yes at test level, you actually have to do the main part of your role you're selected for, where as you can get away with it at the levels below.
