This is obviously massive pie in sky, but if by some miracle we pull this off who lifts the trophy? Surely not Cane.

Do a Kirk Dalton job, with Came looking sheepish

Cane was upright. He made connection with the head. The RC was the right decision given the directives, I’m afraid.

It was as correct as Frizzle was bullshit.

Let’s go ABs.

[Stag]

One question, how come the bok centre didn’t go off for an HIA after the Cane hit.

[canefan]

Poor chase again

[taniwharugby]

@Stag that's a drum I been banging for ever

A card for head contact surely means it is bad enough for the guy to get HIA

[canefan]

Almost horror start. BB saves the day

[nostrildamus]

Beauden you give me heartburn

[Dodge]

Kolisi just cost a try.

Made up for his error

[nostrildamus]

pathetic droppie attempt!

[kiwiinmelb]

Their execution of the kick and contest in the air has been great

@broughie The game is being run by lawyers. World Rugby is terrified of class actions by former players with premature dementia from head knocks. The intention to protect players is admirable. But they need to look at the rules of the game. This is a professional sport, competing for entertainment and advertising dollars in a crowded market. And this is the pinnacle event being decided by random decisions by some bloke scrolling back and forth on extreme slow-mo, spotting some valid indiscretions and missing others. We want to see a fair contest judged and adjudicated in real time, but this so often comes down to what the TMO chooses to point out to the ref. There seems no accountability. It’s farcical.

Gee Vermuelen has good leg drive from a weird angle

He'll have post concussive symptoms down the road for sure.

[taniwharugby]

Fuck everything falling green

[sparky]

@No-Quarter Soccer does.

[canefan]

BB got tits for hands

[nostrildamus]

Barrett is losing us points at 15

[ACT Crusader]

So Codie wins the ball but Barnes says hands on the ground.

Get stuffed, you’ve allowed that all night from green
