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

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

          Back to the old rules, I agree. But not the law as it stands

                @Machpants when is the ball out of the ruck, when the 9 picks it up? I just get the shits when the 9 feints and the defenders get on back foot.

                    Think we've found our hooker combo and our ten. Hunt will be great off the bench.

                      It was both, if he stayed on the side and didn't do anything but pushed he might have got away with it. But he made it obvious he got to the ball carrier illegally so got pinged.

                            Yeah out once it comes off the ground, not as it used to be as soon as he touches it with his hands. You're not allowed too fake a pick up, but nines often used a'look' as the same thing. The refs should be much harsher in what's a feint, and what's a look, I agree

                              You have found your 10 if you want to play without a first five. He has not played that role at all.

                                      I could see the Highlanders winning their QF. They will be up against the Blues more likely, who are far from unbeatable.

                                        I always knew when watching Hunt that we'd be better off without a ten on the field. Not often you see a team with no ten put on 50.

                                          Think we've found our hooker combo and our ten. Hunt will be great off the bench.

                                          You have found your 10 if you want to play without a first five. He has not played that role at all.

                                          What role has he played? The role where kicks are successful and make more yards than you'd expect in under 7s? One where the backline is humming and he goes forward and creates opportunities?

                                          Yeah you're right. Bring back Hunt!

                                          Nine had been main decision maker, like French teams. Very different than traditional 10 role

                                          I always knew when watching Hunt that we'd be better off without a ten on the field. Not often you see a team with no ten put on 50.
