    @Bones it's on Reddit so I see no issue sharing it here.

    Thanks @Smudge

    Must be my GOMness but I can make out nothing if either who any of those people were or what they were saying...

    Looks to me like Bower approaching Marshall, then Clarke stepping in between and seemingly pointing Marshall to the door. I don't really see/hear anything angry. I definitely don't know how it's not a good look - unless we're talking about Marshall being so pissed he walks like that alien guy on MIB.

    Ah OK so there are ABs there. Obvs todays ABs are a bunch of fluffybunnies as they are singing happily after the worst AB performance in a century. And they dont like it when someone points out how fucking shit they are and are happy to beat up some blond old git?

I definitely don't know how it's not a good look - unless we're talking about Marshall being so pissed he walks like that alien guy on MIB.

                    Ah OK so there are ABs there. Obvs todays ABs are a bunch of fluffybunnies as they are singing happily after the worst AB performance in a century. And they dont like it when someone points out how fucking shit they are and are happy to beat up some blond old git?

                    I don't see anyone beating anyone up, nor can I make out any words from anyone.

                    Looks like Akira Ioane getting aggressive in there too ?

                    Marshall looks hammered

                    You’re just a hater 😀

                    Na I love me some Akira when he’s playing well on the field but that to me looked like he was mouthing off at Marshall ( who I’m fairly sure would have said something in his state )

                      Must be my GOMness but I can make out nothing if either who any of those people were or what they were saying...

                      Looks to me like Bower approaching Marshall, then Clarke stepping in between and seemingly pointing Marshall to the door. I don't really see/hear anything angry.

                        Marshall and Ioane having words, then Bower and Marshall. Clarke casually moving Marshall along like he’s done that before. Marshall looks smashed. Not much to see really.

                          Was trying to work out who is standing in front of Ioane.

                          Looks like one of the props in a white/cream long sleeve

                            With all due respect, practically all rugby fans are hypocrites. Only last week some guys were on here were giving out about Irelands use of the screen and dummy runners, tactics the ABs have used brilliantly for years. I’m fairly sure that those same posters weren’t ranting then about the ABs cheating.

                            Most of my rugby mates felt the Ta’avu red was harsh, and were delighted but a bit surprised that Porter didn’t get a red. I’m also surprised the disciplinary panel took the line they did, if only because it doesn’t make for great optics. I would be livid if the shoe was on the other foot, especially if we had lost, but to be honest we all remember the ones where we’ve been on the wrong end of a decision but quickly forget when we’ve got away with one.

                            There's a difference between whinging about borderline legal play like screening or not entering the breakdown through the gate or not clearly releasing the tackled player before latching onto the ball for a turnover (which are all fair play if you can get away with it)

                            and whinging about referees and citing committees being inconsistent with red cards. I've seen too many posts in the last couple of days from various nationalities saying that the ABs deserve their cards purely for their history of thuggery. So it doesn't matter whether an AB gets a harsh red, it is entirely warranted because the ABs cheat and are dirty and that's the reason why they are as successful as they are....Yadda Yadda Yadda.

                            I am intrigued to know if these posters would have been so quick to argue in Porter's defence if it wasn't the ABs that were on the receiving end of the non-decision. Say, if it were Italy. Is there cognitive bias at play?

                            History of thuggery of course, it must be payback for nearly killing O’Driscoll all those years ago. Trying to think of who was the last All Black thug who got cited for eye gouging or biting or testicle grabbing or whatever

                            A shoulder to the orbital is far more thuggish and damage inflicting than a balls grab

                            Indeed it is. Glad you agree Aki nd Porter should have got carded and multiple weeks.

                              😄 Could have been in the Hutt. But yeah I didn't look at the background properly. It's probably coming out of the bar rather than into it I see!

                                Watched the game last night. Nothing wrong with Akira. He was one of the brighter lights. Just did not have any support and it would have been different with Paps at 7. They understand the upright tackles. Why don’t they use him in the lineout? He has been a good option in the past. For my criticism of Retallick he wasn’t bad. Park seem to be able to make meters off the base of the ruck whereas Smith was either contained or reverting to quick passing to his outsides. Irish defense organized so the options for JGB was running hard at 3 players, kicking or moving sideways. No lack of effort. Ofa was taken out by a shoulder to the head by Aki or did I miss something? Ardie did some good stuff but doing too much by himself and isolated.

                                  @Bones it's on Reddit so I see no issue sharing it here.

                                  All I see is a wasted Marshall obviously being gobby and a sober Clarke moving him on while some other All Blacks are clearly unimpressed with whatever shitface Meg has been saying.

                                  No punches, no issue.

                                  Pretty sad seeing an old guy that drunk in a bar.

                                  It’s ok at home though right ? RIGHT ?!?!?

                                  Like Mrs Meldrew, I assume Mrs MN5 just shrugs her shoulders.

                                        If current refs and recently retired "best ref in the game" can't agree on what should have happened when applying the same "easy to follow, logical" framework, surely someone needs to take another look before things get even more out of hand.
