Ref gets te try

[Bones]

This is ridiculous! How was that not hands in the ruck and offside at the same time? Farce.

[booboo]

Ref fucks up our way

[KiwiMurph]

BF attack other than Blyde looks pedestrian.

He called maul, so seems right to me.

[Stargazer]

The Spanish ref was awful and made this game hard to watch.

BF7s did the business though.

FT: NZ 14 - 7 Ireland

Felix-Hotham looks bloody good when they're not asking her to run straight into a defender.

NZ needs to improve their physicality at the breakdown. It cost them a try in the 1st half when Brazier was counter-rucked from the Miller quick tap, and they conceded penalties in the 2nd half.

If Nathan-Wong is out of the final it could get ugly.

That was just yuck from Brazier, walking in standing straight up and looking around. The rest seemed decent but some interesting interpretation by the ref as an Irish gets a turnover lying on her side, NZ ruck over and the Irish left offside pushes the ball back with her hands, then NZ on a massive go forward go over again and are somehow in the side compared to the returning Irish.

Sorry. Bit late pushing submit on the post. Was talking about the pen + YC for knocking it backwards.

Yeah did she hit it back and it came off her shin/foot?

Yep.

A result of repeating incorrect words.

Along the same lines, where something just becomes accepted knowledge, i found it both amusing and bemusing when ref called maul, which then collapsed and the BFs released and stood back.

Mind you, that idiot would probably have blown a penalty.

[Bones]

Clark showing his inexperience this game.

[Bones]

And now Leo too. Just dumb to show Baker the sideline with that much room.

[Bones]

Hah, no love lost between Laidlaw and Friday then.

[Bones]

Boom...salt in the wounds from Cook-Savage, looks to have a great head on his shoulders.

Think NZ played really well, measured and confident with just a couple of inexperienced mistakes.

33-17.

[Bones]

Extra time for SA v Samoa, Samoa staying in it purely on heart, their heads checked out a few minutes ago by the state of play!

[Bones]

Hah! Penalty to Samoa from the kick off as they put great pressure on the receiver, then they opt for the droppie from 35 out and it sneaks in the right hand upright!

NZ vs Samoa in the final, Samoa haven't made a cup final since Vegas 2019.

[rico1]

Samoa should have won with a runaway with the last play of regulation time, but seemed as shocked as everyone else that SA had dropped it cold.

Samoa were spent in that second half & bodes well for AB7s.
