Hawke's v Bay of Plenty

[Bovidae]

I despair how we judge these tackles now. That's very different from deliberate foul play.

[Steven Harris]

Red under the framework but boy I totally agree with Ken , this space needs some work and in a hurry

[taniwharugby]

@Steven-Harris the powers of the game (we are not one currently) dont see any issues it seems....

[Steven Harris]

Chase Tiatia should be a traffic monitor

[Steven Harris]

Take the 3 ,and then go back

[Duluth]

Ref gave Hawkes every chance

[KiwiPie]

Go the BAY! See you next season Hawke's

[Magpie_in_aus]

Hb have themselves to blame there. Stupid grubber at the end. Advantage or not just keep hammering

Yes, some hometown officiating there. HB were offside when BOP was camped in the 22 m but no calls.

[KiwiPie]

We played a lot better with 14 than 15

[Stargazer]

Congrats to the Steamers, a deserved win. The cards were fully deserved, but if you can't score with a man more on the field (for a time, 2), then you don't deserve the win.

Not good seeing Godfrey getting injured. It looked bad.

The refs by the way missed a dangerous tip tackle in which Sapsford landed on his neck/head near the end of the game.

Not a fan of scheduling this match for the same day the All Blacks only front for 40 minutes. Not good for blood pressure...

Deserved win to the Bay, that’s how we roll

[Dan54]

The Bay are not a bad bloody team are they? I was there when they beat the Naki a few weeks ago, and thought then they look a team that is hard to put away.

@Duluth can you do me a favour and remove the appropriate Bay from the thread title

[Nepia]

Well this has been the worst sporting day ever for this ABs, Warriors, and Magpies fan.

TBH, I don't really care about the other two in comparison to this one as they both get another chance.

The Aussie coach can fuck off and take the old coach's Wellington mates with him.

Suuuuuuuck it

No other result means anything p

[mariner4life]

Kick them out of the comp!!!

No population, rubbish team

[ARHS]

I was so angry at the poor refereeing in this match. I suppose Josh Kaifa is invisible and allowed to enter rucks from anywhere. Despite all the hometown calls I was staggered the BOP reserve xv held out with 14 men.
