Wallabies v Pumas II

[Old Samurai Jack]

Hodge is podge.

[Bones]

So if Argentina hadn't scored, surely it's PT and YC? So why does that cancel out the YC?

[Duluth]

I want to see the old man Greg Holmes recreate his try from 2006

Jaco said penalty only for the tackle.

Take away that tackler and it's a walk in...

Stadium has filled up for the main course

Hodge is the player we wish Bridge could be.

Wallaby bench pretty average tonight.

Yeah but the try was awarded. The disparity you're pointing at I get, but that's a vagary of the law. You'd hate to see everyone YC just because they were last in defence and gave a potential penalty away while still being scored against.

Was a discussion point among refs here for these situations where it is close to the line - how do you stop their forward momentum without going over the shoulder?

[Bones]

@antipodean who the fuck do you think you are. I would love to see every wallaby carded.

Not helped by Petaia breaking. Again.

Hooper is a cracking player but I wonder if he'd come up through the NZ system if he'd have ended up as an international 12 or 13.

We made a scrumhalf a fullback/ five-eighth...

Too small. No kicking game ...

I don't really like the reasoning that because I can't stop a player by legal means then I can turn to illegal means. So weak scrums should be allowed to collapse? Defending teams can pull down mauls? Etc

Jaco is well past it eh.

Worth saying again.

[booboo]

Meh ... might have gone pen try there ... but full time, who cares

[Derpus]

@l_n_p Lions test out that shit to bed.

[Machpants]

Lol great fact, hooper and lavanini share the record for most cards, still
