SRA Round 10: Blues v Chiefs

[African Monkey]

@canes4life He has to be at 10. We look awful in the backs.

A very average performance in the first half from us (have been saying that a lot recently). Our defence around the fringes has been non existant and we've been losing contacts even against this 2nd string Chiefs side.

Upset is definitely on here.

[Chris]

Dissapointing from the Blues they are just not progressing forward .
This is a chiefs team thrown together no combinations first starts and they look the better team by a long way.

@steven-harris I really like Choat.

What turnip field did they pluck that woman from?

[Stargazer]

@tim Are you talking about the Women's World Player of the Year, and the best recent Black Fern by far, Kendra Cocksedge?

You have to go past it

That's not correct. The law doesn't say that.

You can only be off side if the ball goes forward the TMO ruled it went backwards so he is not offside.

Someone should have a quiet word in her ear about slowing down - that she can breathe between sentences.

Wrong. I've already quoted the law.

Chiefs can win if they replace triple T who is very much off his game tonight. They need to speed up their phases. Norris and Florence going very well.

Just because you are a good player doesn't make you a good broadcaster/commentator.

[Tim]

@chris If the ball goes down or backwards and then bounces forward it isn't a knock on, but a player in front is still offside.

[Stargazer]

@kiwimurph Did I say that?

And also hope the Blues have lost their challenge now as they appealed for a knock on and it wrong.
I hate these challenges, along with all these experimental rules.

Didn't say you did.

Do you have a law reference for that?

[Steven Harris]

@kev I tried to get him up to Northland the year Auckland won the Mitre 10 cup , out of loyalty he stayed with Auckland although he thought about it ..spoke to him last Saturday.., he said it’s now definitely an option , got another a year on his contract ..

[Stargazer]

@kiwimurph And I shouldn't have to. I asked a question.

Wrong. I've already quoted the law.

So you can be offside picking up a ball that went backwards.
Is that an Australian Law

Let me make this perfectly clear - you have to be put onside in that circumstance. Running past an imaginary line where the ball was is not being put onside.

Way to miss my point.
