How is that a penalty?

Very selfless there from Akira, would have scored that himself if he wanted, but looks after the little bro and hands him a hat trick.

Too lazy to run the 20 metres

[African Monkey]

Cowley-Tuioti's hands have let him down a bit tonight just to be picky.

[Stargazer]

Could see that YC coming. Won't do much damage, but really stupid.

[booboo]

That is fucking bullshit against Ranger.

He came through the fucking gate!!

Binned because his defender twisted.

#Sad!

[Gunner]

Nonsense yc there.
He joined from the back of the ruck, kept his feet and was bound.the whole time, so what's the problem?

I've still never had a ref adequately explain that ruling against the law book. There is nothing to say that if you join correctly and stay bound that you can't swing around.
It looks wrong though and I guess that's where it comes from.

That should be a yellow card.

[Stargazer]

@Gunner He did enter from the side, just after being warned for something else. The team was on a warning.

Yep. Deliberate professional foul right there.
How can Ranger get a YC but not that?

I disagree, he entered the ruck through the gate

[Gunner]

@Stargazer rewind it pal, joined from the back for sure.

The scary part for Australian rugby , (bit early to call obviously, )

But this could be Nz's weakest team again .

[booboo]

He came through the gate. Not from the side.

[booboo]

Take the points...

Good first game to kick start the new Super Rugby season! Tomorrow's NZ derby will be a goodie, too!

Never in doubt. Points don't seem to be an issue. Need to tighten up some little stuff.

The rebels are a bit (lot) shit

[Gunner]

Glad I saw that post from Canerbry before it was deleted. That was some of his best work.

Blues backs look deadly, forwards a pass, but they'll be a lot better with Kaino, Charlie, Paddy T and Parsons all on the park.
