Force are looking dangerous here. They are tricky to put away.

"Scrappy" is the word you're looking for.

NZ 7-zip coming up.

Well 8-zip considering tahs tomorrow

You’re right. I think I’m a few minutes behind, they seemed to fuck that up with some pretty average skills.

[NTA]

@gt12 ah. Hohneck just walked on

[NTA]

Fucking hell did anyone else know what koteka was doing there?

[NTA]

Classic Coltman

[Canes4life]

Coltman wouldn’t be Coltman without atleast one crooked throw.

[gt12]

Dont the force have a really good kicker? Would they be up in this game if they’d taken the points (on different occasions)?

[Derpus]

Jesus Rugby is a joke.

[NTA]

Fucking hell.

That's a penalty at worst.

[Derpus]

I genuinely think if RA sign up for TT theyll be bankrupt within 5 years.

Just need to hang on til RWC 2027

[antipodean]

Once again that should be a penalty to the defending team. 19 white clearly joins in front of the ball carrier.

@kiwimurph or just create a domestic comp? Dont have to deal with any of this nonsense and unlike you blokes actually have the population for it.

The problem is you need an audience.

[gt12]

Ok, I just saw that and I think that’s a YC all day.

[Stargazer]

@gt12 Yep. Agree with it or not, it's been officiated like that for the last few years.

[Derpus]

@antipodean 42k fluffybunnies rocked up to watch us play worse rugby. And viewership was up massively year on year.

No one cares about the 'quality'. It just needs to be an actual competition. Something this aint.

That’s very fair, they are lucky to get away with that.

Quality is still an issue for Super Rugby AU.

The Rebels crowds are awful and they were competitive in Super Rugby AU.

[Derpus]

@kiwimurph the Rebels crowds are bad because Melbourne is and always will be AFL.

Even the Storm get shit crowds.

I wouldn't extrapolate from a final between the two clearly best teams in the comp.
