Ref's extremely relaxed on players holding the ball on the ground again. I bet that does a complete 180 for the next game
Not likely. Ref is right that the jackler has to have a good go at the ball.
I was at a semi-pro game recently where a ref blew 19 PKs for holding on (seriously). I spoke to the ref assessor afterwards and asked him what he thought. He said the ref was far too quick to blow the instant someone was over the ball. It ruined the game.
Sure but when he's actually dragging the tackled player around while both hold the ball I think it's swung a bit too far...
Yeah, I don't think you should be encouraging players to drag opponents around by the balls...

Depends how far they're swinging.

Fuck supporting these dumb fluffybunnies every week. Seriously, why are they following up points by trying to run from their 22?

They need to get Genia off - he's taking up all of his backline's time and space and giving the English defensive line plenty of time to get up and smash them back

Fake news

Why? Why are they trying to run from their 22? Through forward runners too? Dumb fluffybunnies

Aussie tactics are letting them down.
They’re giving up points trying to run it from deep in their own territory.

Need a try before halftime. Good opportunity here.
