Why the hell wasn't that cleared in the 1st 2mins of that scrum

I wondered whether the ball was hooked back. I couldn't see it.

[Tim]

As always, shut the fuck up Marshall.

[Toddy]

@Crazy-Horse Yeah, I wondered if the hooker is under pressure and not getting the ball back. Wasn't sure though

Modern scrums the ball is feed into the second row anyway.

[Mattasaurus]

What is the actual rule re: half backs hands on the ball at the back of rucks and when the defence can go?

[Toddy]

@antipodean True!

Off the ground or clear of the shape of the ruck.

Missing the hook still happens from time to time though

Last week Parsons picked Ta'avao as the form number three of the week, which is hillarious.

Score?

Cortez in such good form he nipped back to 99 for an intercept. Uncanny.

[antipodean]

Great work by Jacobsen there.

14 - 15

[Tim]

Good try.

Imagine if this game had a competent ref.

[Crazy Horse]

@taniwharugby 15 -14 Brumbies

Chiefs messing up the kickoffs so far and too many penalties as well. Other than that, they are doing okay.

[antipodean]

Do the Chiefs think each team takes turns scoring?

[Tim]

Australian teams seem to be better at kickoffs?

[Bones]

Another very important thing. Noticeable that when it's Kiwi commentators, Noah is Lolesio and not Lolosio.

They do when it's Gatland not kicking a contestable kick. The only team he puts under pressure is his own.
