Roigard can't get injured this year, he's our rock and it showed when he went off.
Needs to be managed well.

Agreed, with Perenara coming back soon there will be some rotation. Would like to see him start in the big games. i.e. next week.

TJ will be back soonish.
The subbing really brought nothing. It made more of a mess.
-
Ardie straight into the interview apologising for his gesture.
Some rather back handed comments in there though.
Fair play to him.

Yeah Ardie just getting fired up protecting his big bro. Probably a good game to have early in the season as it will build character.
-
@Derpus Whats your take then?
-
Yeah, Ardie doing a reasonable job of getting in front of everything. Not much else/better he could have done.
-
@Derpus Whats your take then?

@MajorRage death threat on field? suspension. Obviously.
Literally no idea if you are taking the piss or not!

Could the Australian coverage make more of an issue of a non-event?

I was actually impressed by their constraint.
Sure - they kept coming back to it, but it was always with the commentators saying "out of character".
And yeah - my view:- started off, trying to calm his team down
- pulled an opposition player out of a fracas... (in this day and age.. wise? was the force wise, or necessitated? ?)
- given a YC... as a repeat offence? This decision - I don't know. Seems.. flawed, counter-productive possibly.
- on his walk-off, he get's given a spray. He responds. VERY unwisely. I'd be very interested in hearing what he heard.
- BUT - in this era - he should have been able to keep his cool. If some fluffybunny had made reference to his mother, wife, daughter, whatever... it's part of the job now. But... I'd like to know what was said to get him to respond like that.

@Kruse Ill advised in the professional era, but the moralising about it is ludicrous. It's no different to the "I'll snap you like a twig" gesture that happens on every field every weekend. The question was asked and answered and they kept pushing the issue as if he'd shot someone, or misgendered them.

@antipodean Fully agreed.
-
@Stargazer Looked like a very niggly game. At least the Canes have got two on the trot. They also have a lot of talent to come back from injury.

@antipodean yeah i too am in shock that the commentary would draw attention to the throat slitting gesture.
Dont these snowflakes know this is rugby?
