Fitting that a poor refereeing decision finishes the game
No clear release, misses first attempt and tries again.
That said, both teams entered the final knowing Briant is a donkey of a ref, but only one side wouldn't secure possession and do anything meaningful with it.

@antipodean yep. It's telling when the commentators have to praise cheating as "paradigm awareness"🙂

dont think he was supporting his weight either.
Sadly the standard of reffing this M10 cup has been found wanting.

At the press conference last night there was a really funny moment..we were about to start with questions in the media room with Alama Ieremia first up ,and the Ta$man Mako starting singing the team song which sounds more like a military song ..despite looking a bit down in the dumps , even Alama had to laugh , what class act despite the circumstances he could stilll see the funny and was very good ,and very articulated with his answers and paid huge credit to Ta$man, he could not fault his own teams effort but lamented the yellow cards did not help , but certainly did not offer that as an excuse ..
Clark Dermody and Quinten Strange sat in for the Mako ..one point that I feel I should make, Strange made it very clear despite missing several big names , many of the players that had come into the squad had come out of club rugby ..

Well done Ta$man. Excellent win for NZ rugby.
Why?
I have no idea.
I also post “Fuck off auckland you bunch of massive fluffybunnies” on a messenger group. Also, I have no idea why. I was fairly boozed though.
Watching replay now and it must be grating, listening to the commentators if you’re not a Ta$man supporter?

Right, so just total drunken hatred then. I have no problem with that.
I didn't have to listen to TB commentators fortunately. I did have to listen to @duluth and @tim doing commentary at the ground. Some of which was actually quite good, albeit completely biased (as was I). Duluth's lovely lady was probably the best commentator of the four of us though and with a healthy disrespect for Briant I might add.

I hope you didn’t get led astray by @Duluth after? Usually it leads to a fucking sore head the next day

@Hooroo I ran away to watch the AB game (and I had to drive). There were ominous signs though.
Well it doesn’t help that Mrs Duluth is a massive enabler for getting a sore head too 😍😄🍷

Congrats Ta$man and @Chris-B . Probably would've won by more if Christie's service wasn't so slow.
He probably had his worst game for the season in the final.
