Waratahs riding their luck, I expect the good guys to over run them in the second half -

<p>I saw it even without the screen. The AR must be blind to miss that; it happened right in front of him.</p> -

<p>Yeah, that was shit. Just gave that big fat slow bastard a free run right down the middle.</p>

<p>I know it was great play be Skelton but he managed to look so slow going down the middle. Lowe should have done a lot better there.</p> -

Missed it. What happened?</p></blockquote>
<br>
Folau offloads but a faint hand from Chiefs centre propels the ball forward. Ref calls a Blue knock on. After they replay the "gross injustice" on the big screen and the crowd is suitably outraged, Peyper decides to change his decision.<br><br>
Tahs score from ensuing scrum. -

<p>I think the precedent was actually set back at RWC2015 when Fiji were denied against England. And in South Africa several times since.</p>

<p>Shame I can't see the game. Sounds alright.</p>

<p>The Waratahs are a very dirty team. Hoopah and Skelton in particular</p>

<p> </p>
<p>Yeah. Dirty bastards. They should stick to niggle, and gamesmanship... or something :)</p> -

Nothing much, the right call was made. Move on</p></blockquote>Can't say I agree, the right call might have been made, but...<br>
The refs get calls wrong during a game, it happens. Is the TMO going to start over ruling/the ref start changing all their calls, or just the bad ones that are played over and over on the stadium big screen? -

<p>Who plays fullback for the Tahs now that Folau is at centre?<br>
Or does he just play both positions?<br>
Dont recall a fullback taking any high balls, Folau always seems to be there though...<br><br>
Chiefs take the lead back</p>

<p>He seems to defend at fullback but attack at centre. That isn't that much different than what other fullbacks do, tbh.</p> -

<p>Most FBs join the line either side of the centre.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Plus he's that fucking good at the high ball, its the logical choice.</p>
