@chris he pushed it dead it wasn't a downward motion.
Nah disagree

With Kirifi and Laumape the canes have 2 of the most over rated players in NZ
Both have had storming games today. I think most people rate them appropriately - they are good players but limited.

@crucial why are you fixated on the deliberate part. That's the offence in the law. So that's what it is
Not quite sure what the question is but when it happened I immediately called that it should be looked at.
On the replay I thought it could go either way as to being deliberate.
I didn’t expect a PT though.
Another ref and it could have been a 5 metre scrum or a penalty and YC.
I can’t see that the try would have been scored from a bouncing slippery ball and sliding player -
@stag said in Hurricanes v Reds:
@toddy absolute bullshit. He had every right to try and force it, and that is all that he did.
Apart from the bit that propelled the ball outside the field of play, sure.

@damo said in Hurricanes v Reds:
I think that is really harsh. The ball was way up in the air. Very hard to successfully force it. I didn't think he intentionally knocked that dead.
Then don't try to. He didn't attempt to catch it and that's not a genuine attempt to ground a ball when it's that high off the ground. Good decision.
What law are you applying there?
If judging the same way deliberate knock ins are you are probably right but these dead ball area ones are usually judged with a different threshold. The SBW example was a straight out deliberate knock dead and I can’t remember many others since. -

I assume he's just going to be Hoisen on the Fern now, until Eternity.
