Waratahs v Fijian Drua

Duluth

SR refereeing getting further and further away from the rest of the world

So I get
Yes, Yes and then an argument about whether it was moderate or high danger.

The 'off the ball' nature escalates for me. Plus the sheer stupidity - Hooper was so close to a card. Dumb, dumb dumb and then lucky.

Did anyone hear the justification?

Stargazer

@nzzp Not sure, but I think I heard O'Keefe say something like the arm hit the shoulder, so I assume that means there was no head contact.

Duluth

Nice pass Jorgensen

KiwiMurph

There's not much to the Drua attack offloads aside.

Perese offers little. Just tucks and runs ineffectively

Duluth

Hooper 5 missed tackles in that half. He had a few sloppy games on defence earlier in the season too.

Stargazer

Hmm, that Drua player being pushed into touch looked dodgy to me.

Duluth

Tahs have attempted 216 tackles, Drua 100. Tahs might fade in the last quarter

Duluth

Ha that was good. Mark N with the casual pass and then Waltons pass somehow managed to stick

20-13 Tahs

KiwiMurph

@Duluth horrendous midfield clearing kick by Drua and Tahs make them pay.

Duluth

No arms

KiwiMurph

Professional Tahs win.

Duluth

Well the Tahs didn’t fade. Solid win

Jorgensen had some classy touches again

NTA

Coathanger should have been yellow.

Late, cynical, high, lazy.

NTA

Tahs made something like 220 tackles at 90%

Drua weren't exactly subtle on attack, mind

asked a lot of questions though. Tahs did really well to keep tcakling. It was a real clash of styles, a lot like Canada Tonga in RWC2011 - a fantastic game to watch as a neutral

No idea how that stuck.

Good to see the young blokes back themselves. I think Walton has had a horror injury run and is finally getting to show his wares.

I was a bit worried about everyone talking up Jorgensen, but so far he is proving those concerns invalid.
