Man have the Force made a single dominant tackle all game? These guys are absolutely phoning this shit in.

Landers have been so lazy with ruck penalties, maybe cos they're so dominant in the game and happy to give them. But coach killer lazy penalties

I haven't been following the thread, and I am a Highlanders fan.

But is anyone else worried about Aaron Smith being blatantly offside at a ruck in the lead up to the second try by the clan?

Ozzies are

That's OK then. I don't know what the TMO protocols are these days but I would have been OK with that being looked at by the TMO if within 2 phases.

I think 2 phases is not a thing any more.

Could well be.

I feel like I am only half a step from being a grumpy old man shaking my fist and saying "would never have been allowed in my day..."

I can't believe I'm saying this... But has Gregory actually played well so far

[Crazy Horse]

It's amazing Kahui is still playing given he was always injury prone.

That's probably why!

[Bones]

Geez been a long time since I've not seen advantage over after a kick!

[Derpus]

@Machpants Force are done. Their coach has already been sacked and their big shot at a scalp against the Blues failed. I reckon they all want the season to end.

[Bones]

That was an embarrassing scrum for a seasoned tight five.

Looks like the pushed the wrong way.

[Bones]

Paea! Broke a tackle! Shocked and stunned

[chimoaus]

UJ has been playing well tonight.

[Derpus]

Pasitoa has turned attack into defence with every single touch. Blokes pretty fucking shite.

[Bones]

Even Marshall is dominating the force.

[Derpus]

I dont get mauls. Why couldnt he tackle the guy?

Swam around the side, then changed bind

[Grooter]

It's great to have a consistent goal kicker out there tonight

[Bones]

Hey BOK if a player is obstructing and gets pushed under his own player...it's obstruction eh.

[chimoaus]

Refs need to call out when halfback puts hands on it I reckon.

[Grooter]

good work Holland

[antipodean]

This game highlights yet again the benefit Aaron brings when teams make the effort to provide quick ruck ball.
