@kirwan it was the rib shot that took him down wasnt it, you saw him reel back and stayed down and then went off.
Nope, that's what the commentators thought they saw. He got hit directly in the head, and got taken off for HIA after they checked his neck.
I did see them doing the neck thing at the time and wondered if it was a head knock. Then the replay looked like he had copped one in the ribs...

It’s the left shoulder that hit the head, the behind shot doesn’t show it well.

Agreed, I saw some post hunts started every game bar one since RD.1 last year, the team slowly stabilised around him
I think ioane has shown enough at 15 that he could work if he refocused as a 15 that can cover 10…but yes, it’s getting close to make of break for him

-
@kiwimurph yeah, pretty obvious frustrated brain explosion, it’s was a good play until then
-
@kiwiwomble Yeah, other than that his kicking game was good, and he made the most of the ball he had.
-
I know there was an AB team named, but aren’t you Blues’ fans a bit pissed that the game got so little attention on the Breakdown?
I make it about 10 minutes of the entire show?
Nothing from the landers either!?? Wtf?
Edit: actually now that I think of it more I’m really pissed off for the Landers. Where is the focus on their payers?

Yeah, sure, if I thought that the breakdown meant anything. Same as if I thought that the rugby writers weren't complete retards who were horribly biased against the Blues. Stuff gave higher ratings to the Highlanders forwards than the Blues, despite the Blues complete domination of the ball. Hell, they gave both Ioanes the lowest ratings of anyone (5/10), despite them clearly being the best on the field.
NZ Rugby media is irredeemably stupid and biased - why should I expect anything from them other than rank incompetence? Most of them, especially TJ etc, were probably completely gutted that the Blues won something. Why the fuck does the biggest region not have a single commentator?
They shit on their biggest market all the time, so why care?

So, that’s a yes then?

Mils and JK have handed their Auck cards in? Or is JK just a pundit these days and Mils is a Hamiltonian?
Another yes then?
Sorry don't typically watch the breakdown....
Edit: And the one time I try to watch it live, there's no fucking sound.

@tim said in SR T-T FINAL: Blues v Highlanders:
@bones Mils is chiefs and mostly does halftime comments, and JK isn't a commentator.
Try to keep up though, it only took you 5 years to realize that TJ was biased.
Too busy being a dipshit mate, you should try it.

@tim said in SR T-T FINAL: Blues v Highlanders:
@bones You used to post for years the same shit about "I can't understand why you guys keep complaining about TJ?" Then one day flipped and realised it. Now try to work out who actually comments on the games.
And Hames could not be worse.
I will try to work it out.
