Reado got away with being a bit of a naughty boy. PSDT got up and kept running, but apparently the saffa press reckon he could have doid
I love me some post-match grainy still shots with a thick red circle or bright yellow arrow on it. Especially after an AB win.
Makes the victory just that little bit sweeter.

@ACT-Crusader looking at that pic, it looks like PSDT doesnt even have the ball, and looks more like his fist is hitting him, so that makes it doubly, no, triply worserer.

So off the ball, high, deliberate, clenched fist, intent, and wearing a black jersey - heβll be sweet.
I hope he does get a week though so we can see the loose trio we all want.
6 - Cane
7 - Todd
8 - Savea -

Cherry picking conspiracists.

I saw that linked to last night. Not a good look.
What is Read thinking when doing something like this? Put that on the big screen and we could have been down to 14 players for either 10 mins or the rest of the game.
So unnecessary and stupid. We don't appear to have learned our lesson that the best strategy is to avoid this off the ball crap.

When did this actually happen and what was going on? I donβt even remember it.

You couldn't see it through the aura

Its tap ball from a lineout , Read holding back PTSD as he pores through on to A Smith.

So who, exactly, are the players writing these messages on their wrist tape for? Not for themselves, unless they read their watches upside down

In fact, what does wrist tape even do? -
Ugh.
Well played All Blacks. Better than us on the day.
Good luck for the rest of the RWC - hope to see you for the 100th match up later in the final! -

midfield good (especially ALB) although they barely used SBW - why bring him on and then never put the ball in his hands?
Because he doesn't have to carry to create space?

If you are an AB you have to expect (sad) people to go crawling through footage to find things and then try to make them go viral. Just means you've got to be super clean.
I have to admit, that after reading so much of it after the years, I have occasionally started to wonder if we do get some treatment as being the world number 1( and by some distance for a lot of it) over the last few years will mean some ref's will have pre-conceived notions.
However, after the Lions debacle, where there were full page spreads about the red card (first in history, more or less) and then zero about Garces flipping about playing the rules properly (both in favour of lions, both in last minutes, both deciding the results of the tests), I've decided that knockers are just knockers. Sad people who struggled to achieve nothing themselves. Sitting in Mummy's basement behind their thousands of screens desperate to find a morsel of AB "favouritisim" to try and make go viral. Forget Garces lack of PT/YC, forget the player being 10m offside before the Bok try, forget the penalty to Boks for brining down their own player - none is as relevant as Coles in from the side in a non-desciript ruck, or Read's clumsy grab at PTSD. None of it.
Boks were heavily tipped to win the thing by most fo the media up here (one well known pod cast had 6/6 predicting the Boks), and we've just (potentially) made them look stupid. If things go to form, I highly doubt they will get past the QF.
