    I wonder if we will still be saying the Aussie sides are competitive after this weekend. Even the Brumbies are looking good for a loss without Noah and Valetini.

    Gunna be a long weekend I reckon.

      FFS, commentators complaining that'not the Highlanders fault' the ball wasn't available. Um some dumb fluffybunny Highlander kicked it into the crowd, so yes totally their fault

        What a screwed up rule .. so someone in the crowd can hold the ball until the goal kickers time has lapsed…another bizarre rule 🤦🏻

            Is always been that way, don't kick the fucking ball into the crowd. Johnny Wilkinson the cheat, used dry balls for his conversions on this very ground during RWC. You gotta use the same ball

              Like MP says, if players don't know the rule, they're bloody stupid. Never understood why players ditch the ball after that law was brought in.

                Do you have to use the same ball that the try was scored with to kick the conversion?

                              Didn't read your post above. Makes sense why they have to use the same ball. I was wondering what the point of that rule was

                                        What's he supposed to do with the sudden change of direction etc? ... But YC for consistency in this day and age...
