All Blacks v BI Lions Test #3
-
If Crotty is going to be considered fit enough to play then he has to start. If his hamstring goes he can be replaced but if he comes off the bench as a replacement and it pops we are really in the shit
-
I am seriously concerned about this game. The AB pack have put in two massive performances, can they do it for the third week in a row? With the way the Lions have been smothering our play all tour there is no reason to think they won't do it again. It's weird feeling all this uncertainty - one I haven't felt for years when it comes to the ABs. Not sure I like it.

SBW banned for 4 weeks.
Can't argue with it. Reckless is right, not probably intentional, but stupid.
Sums up some decisions at times. Lack of rugby nous. More widespread than just him to be fair (Codie - I'm looking at you, son)

Also:
-
if he was available, I'd pick him next weekend.
-
will be interesting to see how SOB goes with the judiciary.
-
I'm still pissed about Piers Francis being concussed in South Africa and nothing being done. Consistency? My farking arse.
-
Yes, I'm trying to derail the thread. Fark you bastards, I'm projecting
-
-
yea cant really complain about that, did they give him any discounts for pleading guilty, mitigating circumstances, dressing in a nice suit?

You mean "nothing being done during the game", I assume? Because Treeby was cited and received a 3 week suspension.
-
-
Crazy if Vunipola isn't cited. That means the idiot doing the citing thinks O'Brien's act was worse. Yuh huh.

I don't think the decision has been published yet. From what I've seen online, the judicial hearing took three hours, but no further details.
-
@Bones I'm pretty sure that if BB had been hurt in that challenge, it would have been acted upon much differently.
@KiwiPie which is daft, attempted murder is still pretty bad, even if you fail miserably at it

They gave him an extra 2 weeks for callously not sending an apology via twitter. Amateur stuff really from Sonny Bill.

Yeah it's funny how people are saying it's not as bad as it appeared to just glance. Vunipola is very lucky Barrett was half up and almost rolling back already, not moving towards him like SBW/Watson.

I find it difficult to see how anyone can argue that he did not have intent. As you say Bones he was trying to knock BB's block off and Vunipola was lucky he mistimed his hit

Unless there's another deluge and Laumape has an SBW brain fart and gets sent the abs should win this pretty comfortably. Despite some hyperventilating here, they were bloody close to winning with 1 player down for most of the game. That's an astonishing effort in itself.
I've generally been against selecting Jordie, but his ability under the highball might outweigh his other deficiencies. I'm not sure about him being kicker. He's good, but not THAT good.
-
SBW should have got character references from the PM and Hilary Barry

@Wreck-Diver Hansen stated in the PC this morning that Crotty is not available.
@akan004 talking to some cantabs at the airport who reckoned they were mates with his olds and they reckoned crotty gonna be good to go.. hansen doesnt normally talk shit tho
