Highlanders vs Hurricanes

[Canes4life]

@machpants Aumua was a little off tonight but he's been solid for most of the year in that department. Hopefully a one off.

[Derpus]

@southernmann seemed a try to me or possibly double movement.

Held up doesn't seem to make sense to me.

[Bones]

Ok with the ref's call, Highlanders fucked up, should have just recycled.

[Yeetyaah]

Unluggy Landers. That last one would have been double movement anyway.

Apart from the OMG, this is a good post.

Probably a citing coming there,
Welts under the eyes don’t just appear,there must have been contact to the head.

[Bones]

@chris ahh yeah I see it now, scones his eye while his head is down rhen hits him in the shoulder/chest. I can see why the TMO missed it on a quick run through.

Heroic performance by the Highlanders after dropping a man early. That win for the Canes almost felt like a loss, we were far too passive in the second half, too much aimless kicking, a lack of assertiveness and aggression by my boys made it far closer than it should have been. At times the Landers looked like the team that had the numbers

@bones That's why it should have been a proper TMO referral. Not that quick look that they do when play continues.

We really looked like a team on the end of a storm week. I guess it's flush the dunny and move on, sometimes you just have to win ugly and that's what we did tonight.

@stargazer Evans should’ve gone off for an HIA then shouldn’t he if it was as bad as he made it out to be…maybe I’m blind but I can’t see any contact to the head I’m not saying it didn’t happen I just can’t see it.

[Stargazer]

@mikey07 Do you think that black eye just appeared by itself? And do you think it's coincidence that that happened immediately after Aumua lunged at him, shoulder first?

[mikey07]

@stargazer If you’d bothered to read my post I SAID I couldn’t see it, I didn’t say it didn’t happen or that it magically just happened. Regardless he should of gone off for an HIA for taking a shot to the head.

[Stargazer]

@mikey07 I can't see anymore what your post initially said because you edited it. I can't remember reading the last bit.

Did he not?

[mikey07]

@stargazer Oh ok I was just saying that I couldn’t see where he hit him in the face I also said that I didn’t doubt he did.

I’ve watched that clip over and over again and I can see a faint shoulder where Evans head was but then Aumua seems to hit him harder in the chest.

[Bones]

@mikey07 yep it's before he hit him in the chest

[mikey07]

@bones No to my knowledge he layed on the field then got up and carried on some minutes later.
