Reds v Blues

[Crucial]

Good old Pickerell. Pulu was never held in that tackle. says 'clearly holding him when he went to ground' when they were bouncing off him. Twit.

[Chris]

@Bones yeah as a AR I think

[African Monkey]

Hodgman should have been penalised there imo.

[Higgins]

@Bones Yes, an official touch judge.

[hydro11]

Pickerill was right. His hands don't leave the ball and if he does it goes forward. Others may have gone unnoticed but there is always more scrutiny when a try is on the line.

@Stargazer said in Reds v Blues:

@Bones No, it was the right call.

On what basis? Has to be held by the tackler with knee on ground. Touching isn't holding

Some of the Blues loose forwards need to use their shoulders when they tackle.

[KiwiMurph]

Plummer tried to be too cute there.

Hope you aren't talking about Mr Ioane?

Ok so which one of the guys not holding Pulu when he went to ground was the supposed tackler? The one looking in the other direction?

[number9]

Bullshit Pulu was never held.

[Steven Harris]

Thank god Pickerall won’t be officiating All Black games..

[African Monkey]

Poor from Plummer we should have scored there. Moments like that continue to cost us.

[Bones]

Nonu is shit eh.

[Canes4life]

@Bones Hey you take that back.

[number9]

What the hell was that Plummer????

[KiwiMurph]

@Bones Plummer did him no favours.

[African Monkey]

@Bones That was a shit ball from Plummer.

[antipodean]

Why the hell do they pass to Parsons? My grandmother would have more impact carrying the ball.
