@no-quarter Is this their strongest line-up?
No idea, hope not.

Is that Robbie Deans giving some comments?
Yes, and it's fucking annoying.
Luckily I just noticed it now - his half mouth opening talking style is quite distinctive.

@toddy er he doesn't do rucks and stuff
He was good for conceding an advantage there, probably wanted the maul to end coz it’s not his thing.
-
Sure you want the TMO cnut?
-
Well our defense isn't great, which was probably to be expected, but we're scoring at will.
Ref let that maul go for a long time though after it was shunted back twice.
-
How fair was the penalty given that led to that try? I have my doubts that wasn't something that's been done by both sides the entire game.
-
Laumape went too high, if he had gone low and stopped him it wouldn't have got there.
-
This is very frustrating.
Hoping halftime sees them get a serious talking to about keeping it sensible and use possession.
When we keep the ball we can score easily, no need to do the stupid shit.

@no-quarter yep, when they just let mauls keep going it's frustrating.
It's why players resort to illegal pull downs because the legal stop method doesn't get enforced.
This ref has been pretty poor all around to be honest. Don't like focusing on a ref but it has been notable unfortunately.
-
Got a Hurricanes look about the way they are playing..!.

Ref is just so bad, awful
Looks like he must be the next most senior official available after all Gallagher Premiership, Green King IPA Championship, Pro 14, Top 14, local club senior, senior reserve, Under 21s, Under 19s, Presidents Grades and all secondary school fixtures have had first dibs on available refs.
