How is it offside if ball goes back? These referrals are an absolute farce

That's irrelevant.

If you are in front of the last team mate to play the ball you are offside until put onside.

Does retreating to the point they last touched the ball not count as putting yourself onside?

That’s my understanding too, as if the ball was touched by someone and went backwards you’d have to go behind that point to then pick it up, therefore youre not offside?

No. The laws make it clear you have to be put onside:

Other than under Law 10.4c, an offside player can be put onside when:

An onside team-mate of that player moves past the offside player and is within or has re-entered the playing area

An opponent of that player:
* Carries the ball five metres; or
* Passes the ball; or
* Kicks the ball; or*

Law 10.4c refers to kicks. So you have to be put onside by an onside team mate or an action of the opposing team.

@kev Tom Robinson trying to do the work of his whole forward pack ..

Jeez that’s a fair few infringements by the Blues on their own goal line.

[Yeetyaah]

Chiefs should go for a try here rather than fucking around with the kick

[Tim]

Blues look low on confidence.

Exactly this. More low energy than Jeb Bush.

Norris has good feet around contact

Looks tall for a prop

[Bones]

TTT really has gone backwards eh. That was a try gone begging down the gaping right hand side, but he can't play head's up.

Pretty poor captaincy by Wainui - you’d imagine that a Cane or Weber would. Have mentioned it a thousand times by now

[Steven Harris]

@tim highlighting how poor their backline attack is ..it really is woeful

[Hooroo]

Blues should be blowing this team apart.

Hey, is your hooker (Ekland??? Is it) From South African parents??

They don’t do it as well,though if they learnt a lot more they may have been in the final

[Dice]

Even though we're in the lead, I think this 2nd string Chiefs team have looked better than us. We look very average.

You have to go past it

That's not correct. The law doesn't say that.

[African Monkey]

@canes4life He has to be at 10. We look awful in the backs.

A very average performance in the first half from us (have been saying that a lot recently). Our defence around the fringes has been non existant and we've been losing contacts even against this 2nd string Chiefs side.

Upset is definitely on here.

[Chris]

Dissapointing from the Blues they are just not progressing forward .
This is a chiefs team thrown together no combinations first starts and they look the better team by a long way.

@steven-harris I really like Choat.
