All a bit overblown this innit?
totally.
Check out the vide from above - it shows how minor this was, and how the good stuff going on aroudn it isn't talked about the same way. Lot of respect for the two teams

There's still an element of the media which looks for any reason to accuse the ABs of being cheats, dickheads or whatever.

Is that a “fight” these days. Wow.
Both have been proven to be dicks though to be fair.

I know this is so last week, but a short thread from Mulligan.

We're smug for focussing on the next match.
I'm so glad we beat them.

a funny half glass full kind of thing that: look at the amount of time for possession OR keeping them out without a penalty letting the clock tick on..

Such sweet, sweet salty tears
We got on the wrong side of some refereeing decisions.

Wouldn't mind if he shared what they were. My memory is limited to Jordan's try Whitelock's steal.

Found this aerial view of the final sequence. It’s quite good in showing the defensive alignment of the ABs.
Also credit to Ireland as they did very their attack throughout - short balls, long cut outs, wrap arounds - angled runs etc.

What was the difference between Ardie and Sam winning the turnover? Other than the ref calling it?

I don’t begrudge them their success but they had got very cocky very quickly and incident like PoM made it worse.
Imagine the crowing if they won.
I had the utmost confidence we will beat them that day and knew we would come at the with something they had met seen from us in a long time.

Ardie totally won that turnover.
It looks so much worse from that view eh, and Sam's looks completely innocuous.

There was also one on the other side of the field about 3 mins earlier I think with BBBR that probably should have been called as well. Funny, it was a sign for two weeks later that Barnes didn't want to make a call in the last few minutes.

We know refs swallow their whistles at the end of tight games, but that was poor.
Those overhead vidoes are amazing. Show how much is going on. My season tickets at Eden Park were always end on - the best view of who's working and who's shirking. Earl Kirton used to do this too ...
But seriously, it was end on , or prime middle of the middle (which is $$$). -
They really missed an opportunity with the waterfront stadium or really redeveloping Eden Park into something great. Get cricket out of the main ground and redevelop the outer oval. The Paul Kelly stand was awesome to watch rugby and cricket from at Jade but it completely dwarfed the playing area and made it feel a lot smaller than it was.

@LatsToTheMax the arrival of the ref at the ruck.

Barnes's angle wasn't great on that ruck. The AR should have called it - it was right in front of him. You can see Ardie yelling at him after the cleanout
