@Nepia THE HB guy was almost sitting down.
That makes it worse, he was a midget to start with. In fact he could have stayed out of the tackle and they would have got the 5m scrum.

Tiatia decision making coming to the fore again.
Yep, we have two other players I'd rather have back there. It's like Kurt Baker all over again.
-
Good contest thus far
-
HB looking better with ball in hand, making metres with their runners moving before theybtake the ball, many of the CM players are standing still when get it, although CM do look good wide.
-
Counties trying to lose this.
-
I reckon he was gonna card someone until HB 12 told him to send him off...
CM maul d non existent
-
@antipodean yep, all the way from a poor cleanout by a 7 thats played international rugby 🤦🏻

Simply HB taking the chances offered at CM not.
I haven’t been happy with some of the calls. (That so called high shot by Roigard was bullshit) but can’t argue against HB being the better side.You and TJ need to watch a replay, Roigard tackled him round the neck. The ref had no option other than to award the penalty. Just because Grigg is a midget it doesn't mean it's fair game.
You did get the advantage over call go your way.
-
Not sure how both TJ and Smithy could get Funaki and Apikatoa mixed up , only about 25kgs difference and about 2 or 3 inches in height
-
Based on 1.5 games I'd have Tiaan Falcon back over Chase Tiatia any day

It was a light touch seatbelt on a guy already driven back and falling. Had no effect or impact. Just thought it was worthy of no more than a warning. We see those all the time around rucks.
CM crumbled from their setbacks though which hasn’t been good. Here’s hoping a stern talking too will get them back going again. -

Visinia, Makene as well from within the squad. Never seen Sapsford play 15 but would probably prefer him too.
It doesn't feel like that score represents the game.
