50 - 22 rule provides Ta$man with a lineout -> maul -> converted try.

I hate that law, even before Ta$man scored that try
Lowe in at the corner.

...and because I've sketched it out...
Ta$man A
Tuúngafasi, Makalio, Lomax, Parkinson, Strange, Frizell, S. Havili, Blackadder, Christie, Hunt, D. Havili, Paea, Faingaánuku, Reece, Jordan
Coxon, MacDonald, Matenga, Cirikadaveta, Renton, Chapman, Nankivell, Talea
Also MIA: Fox-Matamua, Ware, Marshall and others I've forgotten.
Actually, we've got more than I thought - but mainly promoted from the bench.

You can't claim touring ABs as part of your A team FFS. It's a rare occasion when they get to play at this level.

I think it's a good law. The trouble is that teams are taking the risk of leaving the gap open for it (and paying the price).
The idea is that they cover the possibility which changes the defence structure and we get more attacking rugby. -

The Defence Optional Semi-Final...

From the Magpies at least.
Think they missed a forward pass in that try though.

I'm surprised the ref didn't look at those TBH. I guess he's decided not to call anything.

Ref should've reversed that penalty. How many Magpies pushed the the No5's head into the ground. What a bunch of grubs.
