[Kiwiwomble]

Evans should be starting

[Stockcar86]

Yay debut for McLeod

He's just come back from injury and Flanders has probably been our best forward so far this year.

[Kiwiwomble]

the 15 Otago players and I are all trying to work out what our current game plan is

[Steven Harris]

@Hooroo I agree, if you can get up to support your team after they played so hard to win the bloody shield ..then you maybe as a province you don’t deserve it ..

Do we call this a good crowd or a shit crowd for first defense? I think it’s fucking rubbish. Glad to see Hawkes win it as I bet a good crowd fronts up for their first defense.

Come on the Hawkes! Come on the Hawkes! Black, white, it’s alright, come on the Hawkes!!

Not a great game with many errors, but love the passion in shield games, happy to see it go to Hawkes too. Still time for Otago though

[Stockcar86]

This one should be red

@reprobate didn't land on his head, no need to get hysterical.

He landed in his shoulder and his head impacted the ground as a direct result, it's red.
Landed on his side. Yep.

That's not how the law works. Just because a player hits their head after landing on their arse doesn't make it a RC.

[Yeetyaah]

Otago throwing the game away

[Dice]

Probably the worst commentary team put together for a game this season.

[taniwharugby]

@Stockcar86 odds on

pretty bad, swinging arm to the head, fucking stupid, red all day long

[Kiwiwomble]

Not surprised with the red , thought he was going with yellow though as he was talking about how he was falling in the tackle

[Yeetyaah]

@taniwharugby he looked like he was going to cry

[Nepia]

Is McNicol fit? I think the Kurt Baker experiment is done.

[Steven Harris]

@Yeetyaah he’s actually been there best player ..nothing to be upset about , just got it wrong .

I like him, looks good in Black and white hoops

[Kruse]

Ash Dixon.... WTF? Even after a Red Card, still whinging at the ref. What's he aiming for this time, an early final whistle?
What's the possible point of antagonising the ref even after he's ruled the most possible beneficial option in your favour?

[reprobate]

@antipodean if you land on the point of your shoulder and your head impacts from that, it's usually red.
I don't agree with it, because how it ends doesn't necessarily reflect the actions of the player and how it started, but that's how it is usually ruled.

[Machpants]

@taniwharugby I like the game in two weeks time!

Baker is the new Luke Rooney
