I don't think we should be privy to the discussion between the officials in situations like we just saw. It discourages proper discussion and lessons the likelihood of someone speaking up if they think an error is being made.

Not sure what you mean?

As a smokey for the ABs, I'd like to see Nankivell in the environment - better utility value than Tupaea and a gazillion times better in the midfield than Ennor.

Nankivell is shit

I luken it to my work. We are expected to use our BWC all the time, but when it comes to discussing how we are going to deal with a certain situation the cameras are turned off so we can discuss things honestly and without the risk of what we say coming back to bite us in the bum. We can openly disagree with each other. It's the same with the TMO. Sometimes I get the feeling they agree with each other so they appear on the same page. With what we just saw I thought the TMO hinted that he disagreed with the ref when the ref said shoulder to shoulder then head. The TMO made a point of re-showing him another angle after that.

@crazy-horse I had that impression, too, but I agree with the ref that it wasn't more than a yellow.

[Bones]

@crazy-horse ahhh I get it now, makes sense. I thought you meant on here!

Thing is though, it will just come out during the week which is probably worse.

[Stargazer]

Hadn't realised that Visinia was on the bench. Not named in the official line-up. I probably missed the commentators mentioning the change.

[Tim]

@stargazer BTW, his younger brother is playing club rugby for a North Harbour club this season.

[Stargazer]

@tim Yeah, I know. So is another Magpie brother, Antonio Mikaele-Tu'u.

I knew it and said it a few weeks ago, Duggan reincarnated.

[Stargazer]

Weber injured.

[Anonymous]

The ref really doesn't seem to want to stop for any injuries in this game

[Stargazer]

Even without my eye patch on, it's clear that Thompson is a great signing for the Chiefs. Lad has a big future.

Far from complete performance

Moana Pasifika in desperate need of a bye week.

How did Jones go at 7

[Stargazer]

MP played much better than that score suggests. I'm sure they're going to cause trouble for some Aussie teams/Drua.
