Highlanders v Moana Pasifika
-
@steven-harris Agree. I HATE that the attacking team can do what they want in a maul but the defending team always have to join from the back in the eyes of the ref.

MP are in year 1 , if this was their 2nd or 3rd year then i would be discussing their work ons , i am staggered they are this competitive especially given their disruptive start to the season ..
Check out the Crusaders in 1996 ..had some cricket scores posted against them..Tiatia might be a bloody good coach

Why is the TMO consistently inconsistent in their intervention when no-one asks for it?

Is that not a forward'pass'?
Yup, how the fuck did the ref miss that?

@antipodean where was he in the first half ..?

If that was a ruck it wouldn't be out, so why is it out of a maul?
because the ball is off the ground?

No one is carrying the ball in a ruck

Exactly my point. I'm happy for the correct decision to be made to prevent unwarranted points, but the inconsistency is infuriating.

Can't believe Smith needed an explanation

Just trying it on, then you say 'how wise you are ref'. All games, played with the ref

It is out in both examples; unbound player passing forward to a bound player.

Half backs do that all the time in rucks?

Because refs let them do that (it's more prevalent in the NH) it's no reason to allow forward passes.

I had a feeling this might be competitive just because the Highlanders are such a bad attacking team.
A nice pass from Smith and his backline all stand still and refuse to catch the ball.

How long was that maul not going forward ffs?
