All Blacks v France Test #1

[gt12]

How can it be that international asst refs can’t see a basic law of the game right in front of them?

What? How is that not offside?

Because the player who caught the ball was put onside by the player who last played the ball. He was in front at the time of the knockon, but was not offside when he caught it.

Correct decision.

@broughie Make that in between 2 angus beef patties, and with bacon

I'm stunned by that. There is no special law here right?

Ref was correct.

[ShadowTrooper]

We are giving away a lot of penalties - need to adapt to the ref's thinking quicker

@damo

Really? Ok, I’ll watch the replay, but you’re saying that if I knock on I should keep running to put inside teammates, even though I’m no longer in possession?

Ref was correct.

You can put a player onside when you knock it on? Are you sure about that one?

[ShadowTrooper]

High tackle?

Are you playing AND posting on the fern ? What great multi tasking!

[Stargazer]

That looked awesome, but but but obstruction Aaron Smith?

[Damo]

You are offside if you are in front of a team mate who last played the ball and have not been put onside. He was put onside by being put onside before he played it. I thought so live and it proved to be true on replay.

[Donsteppa]

ALB saves Crotty from another terribly timed pass on attack.

Though obstruction.

[Tim]

@donsteppa Yeah, passed it way too early.

[Wally]

I like this ref

[Rapido]

Whitelock. Crusaders v Lions .....

Better score from this ....,,

[Mokey]

Aaron Smith you dumb shit.

[Stargazer]

Aaron Smith has already cost us 8, possibly 10 (if you include the conversion) points.

[Tim]

@tim On the replay Crotty didn't draw at all.
