@Yeetyaah said in Blues v Chiefs:
NZ referee boss Bryce Lawrence said in an interview on newshub that Pickerill made the wrong call as Goodhue was off his feet. Twice in two weeks.
Didn't he mean Kaleb Trask was off the ground when he was tackled after a botched blues defensive lineout immediately after a yc warning. Tackled in the air, yc handed out right under the sticks.
I thought that was the most galling forsaking of the laws, of the many on display.
Full credit to the players giving us a decent finish in spite of a woeful game of refereeing.

@Yeetyaah did they show that angle?
I didnt see any other angles, but it certainly appeared something not quite legal must have happened under there.

Good article with sense from Leon

@taniwharugby on newshub they did, dunno why there isn't an article posted yet. He had a knee on the ground.

To my eyes the ball was short,but Goodhue off his feet so another penalty.Sad to say these incorrect calls at this part of the game are common place,players not supporting their bodies,but the human error factor of referees unfortunately cost teams big time.
Really all you can say is bad luck Chiefs for two weeks on end ,.....beat the Crusaders next week and hopefully all will be forgotten! -
Funny how the laws have changed,Back in the day hands weren’t allowed in the rucks and now no rucking allowed.That last charge at the line yesterday by the Chiefs in older days would have had skin flying in all directions,finishing up with an all in brawl.A very sedate game now at breakdown!

Just been watching the game. At the ground, it seemed like the Blues got the poo end of the stick pretty frequently. Re-watching, it's just as brutal ...some weird interpretations about supporting bodyweight, not rolling, etc. It's just a bit frustrating really.
You know the ref has been average when both sets of fans are grizzling.

@nzzp orrrrr....it's the blues and a team that's lost 7 on the trot
yeah, the last call was baffling, but given what led up to it my sympathy levels have drastically reduced.
As @tim said I think - suck it up and get better

15 - 6 favourable penalty count and still whining about it.
Chiefs star Brad Weber vents frustration at 'laughable' refereeing calls in wake of Blues defeat
Chiefs star Brad Weber says it is emotionally draining seeing his side end up on the wrong side of the referee's whistle week after week.

@Tim Lol if the Blues fans/players considered moaning about the refs over the last 5-10 years people would just laugh at us

they did, and they did.
Question is, did the Chiefs moan as much before Gats

@Virgil would be destroying a TV every week if he was a Chiefs fan under the Gatland regime.
