Didn't see anything in that tackle that warranted a yellow.

7 penalties in ten minutes did.

That's not about the tackle though, so a seperate issue

Scrum so much better with eight men in it.

That's what the officials concluded.

Gunner

The yc, for nothing, and now going back to look at a nothing tackle.

Who needs Red Beard and Bart when we have you to let us know all about the dark arts…..

This is a shit half of rugby. More time standing around than playing.

No Quarter

This game has decended into a bit of a farce, which is unfortunate. As Pot Hale said, this is like the Pumas of old. Scrum, scrum, scrum.

Why have they put ALB on the blind (aside from the fact he's superman) - put Fatty Savea on there, he's doing nothing out on the wing and his weight will be useful on the side of the scrum.

I'd rather we have ALB in the midfield for defence.

Oh nice....ofa on!

That argie tighthead should have been pinged again! Fucking bullshit!

reprobate

initial contact was with the head/neck, then down to the shoulder. letter of the law it is high, so technically correct to penalise. take the penalised player out of the equation, and you'd have to be getting close to looking at a penalty try too.
glad they didn't though, it was really just one of those awkward things that sometimes happen.

@Pot-Hale what the TMO concluded, that Lions ref Stu DingleBerry wanted to give a card

Tregaskis

Subbing ofa in when scrumming in your own line? Gutsy.

Stink for Squire, got time off for Moody and now again.

Derm McCrum

FFs. NZ offside three or four times

Mokey

Oh ffs. These penalties are getting ridiculous. The game has been murdered.

And? We got ycd

Donsteppa

Half time talk for the All Blacks must have been a doozy. Pies and confusion pills were handed out...

Stargazer

Wonder whether Dixon will get on at all, with all that time Squire has spent on the pine because of yellow cards.
