@mariner4life I know right, all these shit highlanders selected for the ABs from a side that was obviously garbage in super rugby due to the shit players. How'd the Chiefs go again?

@nepia I think it's debatable - seems the infringement would be the scrum half making the opposition think the ball is out of the scrum when it's not. However, if the number 8 picks it up at the same time then I guess there's no infringement.
Who's the laws nerd around here? A ref? Maybe they can offer some insight?

finished ahead of the Highlanders. With an obviously inferior group of individuals. Pretty good effort. Imagine how we would have gone if we had 4 All Black loose forwards instead of just 1?

@nepia scroll down to the bottom of the page at https://laws.worldrugby.org/?law=19&language=EN
Why are you making me do work! That's the opposite of why I go on the Fern.
I'd have thought that 38f would cover it? The 9 is well away from the scrum before the 8 picks up.

@bones said in Bledisloe I:
@nepia is he though?
nah i reckon he is all good. You can't penalise him for running with his back to the opposition. Looks like a standard 8-9 except the #8 ran. woo hoo.

@bones said in Bledisloe I:
@nepia is he though?
Yep. He's left before the ball is picked up by the 8.
Obviously the B grade ref in charge of that game agrees with you though ....
I think it looks like the 8 has picked it up at the same time as the half darts - the 8 just doesn't move.
Edit: I'm sure it's much harder to judge in real time.

The half is darting at 0.4 and the ball is still on the ground, at 0.5 the Tunisian blindside is starting to detach following the 9. The ball is still touching the ground - but may be in the 8's hands.
Well that was a nice diversion, best go do some work work now.
Edit: agree on the real time judging.

To me the acid is on Beauden Barrett,he’s the player that’s got both Mckenzie and Mo’unga breathing down his neck,he’s on notice as far as I am concerned.
As for Goodhue I have no issues,especially when you hear the endorsements coming from many of the players that front up along side him.
I have no doubts that ABL and Goodhue will be a long term midfield combo just as they were in the 2015 AB under 20s.Goodhue was on the wing.
Midfield was Faiane and ALB. Faiane was rated #1 secondfive all throughout age grade rugby. He's failed to deliver since then. Seems to be the forgotten midfielder who people expected big things from.Laumape is still young as well.
