Taranaki v Otago (RS)
-
@Yeetyaah I'm pretty sure it isnt, I personally have always felt if a team doesnt compete, then it shouldnt matter if it isnt straight, but that isnt how the rules are as far as I know.
One of the refs in the CM-Nor game made the same comment about a not straight not being competed for
-
@taniwharugby But NLD did jump, half heartedly, and that's enough. They didn;t stay on the ground. But this certainly isn't in the rules, not straight is not straight. Next forward passes will be OK as long as no defenders nearby
-
@Machpants yea the other comms did point out the half hearted effort of a jump.
TBF if they changed the rule, all it would take woudl be the guy at the back to do a jump to make the not straight be called

What a game by Otago! Their motley crew of forwards were excellent. Who’s that nuggety barrel playing number 8?
Josh Ioane seems to have a calming influence in the way they attack as well.
Dylan Nel a South African born player he played in Canterbury for a few years made the Canterbury B side was around the A squad but couldn’t get game time moved to Otago last season
-
He actually moved south in 2018, got 20+ Otago caps now, he’s bloody handy

Thanks Chris. I can’t say I remember him. He played with a bit of fire in the belly.
