Holy schmokes that is the most backwardsy scrum I've seen 😔

Are they allowed to face the other way in the scrum? They might do better then since they're so good at going backwards

Look at Mark Hammett supercoach over here.

Big Karl was supposed to do there.

Sure but people get stuck on things that are irrelevant. It's way more simple than what can KT do. It's he shouldn't have been there. "But it's not fair" isn't in the laws is it?

You might as well say he shouldn't be on the field then. He'd just been run over by Mikaele-Tu'u and was in the process of getting up to get back onside to, y'know, comply with the laws. The only thing he did wrong was get steamrolled by the bruising No 8.

First half thoughts ...I think the Blues have kept the Highlanders in this game with their own indiscipline...2nd thing is which I find weird ..The TMO has got the official to check every try the Blues have scored ...and yet is happy with Barrett getting taken out when a kick is popped through, now it may not have been a try but the opportunity was taken away..almost get that niggly feeling your up against more that the 15 on the paddock...

Barrett's approach to the ball when he is takiing place kicks is looking incredibly awkward.

@Smudge sometimes you're unlucky.

These scrum penalties are unfair! What else are the Highlanders supposed to do if the can't hold the blues! Bullshit refereeing.

Can someone get this Hillbilly moron off my TV? What turnip truck did they find him on? How many chromosomes does he have?

This is like arguing with Joe Wheeler.

Christie is so shit.

KiwiMurph

Haha that's seriously rubbish from Christie

Tim

So, about that accuracy ...

Tim

Don't know if there was a release there, but that rule has been relaxed the last few weeks.

I’d like to give Dalton a haircut and an All Black Jersey.

KiwiMurph

Beautiful try.

Tim

Damn that was nice use of width.

And Beauden shows he can throw nice passes too.

Fucking cracking try.

Why are you arguing with Joe?

Look it's bloody simple. KT was offside, he effected play, it doesn't matter what effort he makes. Sure, Smith could've gone the other way, run around him or not looked for that pass because KT was blocking it. Sounds like a great deal for the Highlanders there.

Happy to go with the not fair call if it gets us off some scrum pens though.
