That is fucking pedantic. It's just a stray boot.
A well aimed stray boot innit!
The sort of cheating that was a hallmark of my unremarkable career.

Lol refs can't tell the bleached hair dudes apart.
Almost got away with it
I didn't know Nisbo was a TMO
Tho TMO was right, it was the ref that called Ioane in
The blues crumbling since Robinson went off

TMO
I dunno about that then because they will only catch some things. Feels a bit variable.

@gt12 was odd Smith had seen it and mentioned it but obviously wasn't confident enough to use his challenge.
That’s kind of my point. Should the TMO get involved based on a complaint that isn’t a challenge?
-
@machpants ref said the TMO could see he was looking at the ball on one angle...

TMO is supposed to look all the time for foul play

He was directed to wasn’t he?

How did Ofa get onto the ball carrier?
-
@machpants possibly the way Smith said he had seen a boot used on the deck the TMO went looking for foul play and saw that...played the TMO into checking for a knock on?
Right result, process but shady
-
Deplorable tactics from the Blues ..kicking ball away is like Xmas for the Landers

Through the middle with big arms

I agree its the right result but its a dodgy way to get there as in another situation foul play may get missed all the time. Well played by Smith I guess.
