Some strange refereeing decisions, or at least explanations. Has he just ruled a deliberate knock down for knocking the ball out of someone's hands, or was the penalty for diving over a ruck after the ball is out?
He did both?
Thanks. I don't really see how either is a penalty. Surely you can go over a ruck once the ball is out (it is no longer a ruck) and I have never seen a deliberate knock on ruled when someone else is actually carrying a ball.
You can't come over a ruck and slap the ball down off the nine
He later told Billy Harmon the ball was out.

️️I'm not saying it wasn't a penalty, just his explanation on that (and a few other issues) hasn't made sense to me.

He's actually offside at that point
It's the weird thing of once the ruck ends the guys in the ruck are offside,

Blues must be close to a second yellow
-
Blues looking saderish with the infringing in the 22
-
I was about to say ,Best thing regardless of wether the landers scored or not ..the Blues used up all the YC time in extra time .and then they get another YC
-
Good call for a scrum
-
Tuj for the dummy run
-
Noice try
Great scrum
-
That is how you use a dominant scrum. Fucking good from Frizzel
-
The Blues should be ashamed for letting such a bog average team like this back in the game.
-
Laulala and Tuangafasi looking like yesterdays men

Fuck I’m loving these new rules. It feels like a totally different sport.

@African-Monkey simple reason illdiscipline when they are under pump in their own half
So many unnessarry penalties
Always the same culprits 1.2,3 -
Ofa ain't looking like an AB prop.
Fakatava is overplaying his hand and the most guilty of throwing some dumb passes. The Highlanders created some chances before the YCs but didn't execute.
At least we have a game now.

@Steven-Harris Poor scrummaging mixed with Laulala's feet for hands and Ofa's awful discipline is holding the team back.

Always the same culprits 1.2,3@Steven-Harris Yup, no one to blame but themselves for being in this situation.
They should be out of sight.
