Typical crapshoot reffing from WR

if an attacking player in a maul, drops to thier knees, are they allowed to get back up and carry on as if nothing happened, surely they should have to go tot he back of the maul?

There is the general directive of "must be on your feet" but there is no specific direction on the maul - as I seem to remember several Ferners saying to me when Keven Mealamu did it many many years ago on his way to the line for ?The Blues?

Was a clean out. But ref is total free for all, make the most of it

[Bones]

And a YC for the tackle?

[Donsteppa]

Australian pack does look like it'll fold pretty quickly if - if - they are put under consistent pressure.

[Yeetyaah]

No release in the tackle before that turnover. This ref is shite.

So many head rolls

Ref is clueless

Take your patch off. That was textbook showing the ref your release

[His Bobness]

Why didn’t they think of going up the middle from the start?

[taniwharugby]

man the rucks are messy with players stepping through as they retreat, nice try though

Yeah that was pretty obvious eh. Recklessly high, not even a chat.

[Donsteppa]

Australians are gassed already. Looked like they only had ten players on the field once that kick didn't go out.
