<p>C'mon Wellington, I said Otago 1-8, not 1-80</p>

<p>That's still much better than my Wellington 1-8.</p>

<p>Wellington is being punished for offending that the ref decided not to penalise last week. </p> -
Big ups to Otago they are killing us. These new rules are a bit pathetic though. Really who came up with them? They are so bloody messy and they obviously favour the more mobile team. I hope they dont stick around. Cant we just stick to a set of rules and be done with it. I cant even understand the ruck and I watch rugby every week. Goodluck to anyone trying to learn in the future. Big worry for me, nearly as worrying as Earl Va'a's coaching ability.

I don't understand the new laws. I don't see how it has solved a probkem.

<p>Who was the guy that reffed at McLean Park? I have not seen him before but after that will forever recall him. The alarm bells must be ringing at HB Rugby Headquarters after they got dealt to so badly by this Wellington outfit.</p> -
<p>Embarrassing Wellington defence leads to another try</p>

<p>Brett Johnson, from BOP (I think). I know he has reffed Heartland games, not sure about Mitre 10 Cup.</p> -
<p>Sam Lousi put out of his misery thanks to getting subbed barely five minutes into the second half. Did anyone that signs off contracts at the NZFRU actually look at whether he can play or not before adding their signature to his TWO year contract?</p>

<p>It's ridiculous. Make them play ITM Cup and show if they have the chops.</p>
