Strong squad
Pivac obviously hasn’t watched any Cardiff matches
How the fuck is Priestland selected above Evans?
Or Sheedy for that matter?

Former Wallaby Jack Dempsey included in the Scottish squad. No Finn Russell.
He’ll hopefully provide some punch

I didn't know that so went and had a look. Farce. He gets mitigation and the opportunity to reduce his sentence, despite having been in front of the judiciary for similar conduct the year before, as well as 2 years before that.
At least he's sorry though.

@Bones dirty Irish fluffybunny

@Crucial this can make or break the Bokke. Ideal preparation for WC 2023.
-
@antipodean he ended Senatla season. But his reaction to the ref was much worse then the incident.

Also got aggravating factors applied for previous which added two weeks back on
10 was reduced to 6 then back up to 8 -
Just watched the clip and from that it is obvious that players/coaches and laws and still not singing from the same book. Aki argues that he can’t clean out any other way but that is the whole point. If you can’t, you don’t. There is no right to clean out if someone is over the ball only a right to try to do so legally.
Interesting that he was charged under failure to bind which is good but his binding attempt is no different to others actions all the time. I maintain that WR have left the option for this type of thing to happen by not enforcing proper binding and punishing afterwards only when head contact happens is not preventative -
@Crucial he didn't argue he demanded. Sexton do the same.

@MiketheSnow he'll watch tomorrow.
Aki Banned For Eight Weeks
