    @nzzp should go back to Smith playing ball while off his feet, but no...

    I dunno - both players were off their feet playing the ball. Smith gave up pretty quickly and got out of the way to allow the ball to come quickly. PK against Smith would have been harsh.

        @Damo fair call, but for me he did enough while off his feet to affect the next phase to warrant a penalty.

          Good lineout strategy by the Rebels to push the lifter out of the way. I bet on average you get away with that.

          Foolish from Clan to try and score immediately and throw no look passes. Just hold the ball after a break.

              One more try and I will begin to relax.

              Bloody Canes for putting us in this position.

                @Damo I really hate games this late on a Sunday afternoon. They've given me a reason to be keen to watch. Agree it shouldn't have been the case though.

                  Geez, both teams are competing for the "worst ball handling award".

                        @nzzp yep, just mark it as an incident to be looked at post game, instead of fucking the flow of the game by rewatching over and over looking for something

                          Unfortunately the no look passes have infected a number of the super teams..

                              FFS. That was pretty obvious.

                                  Smith is looking dodgy as today.

                                        De Groots handling hasn't been great today...busy but several turnovers of possession

                                          Not sure who it was, but needed to shift it in the 22 instead of tucking, woulda scored for.sure.
