@Yeetyaah Think Moana have had a lot of help from the ref team this half. Not helping the cause of rugby actually.
I was just about to say that on the aggregate, the Chiefs have not been judged the same. Having said that, the replacements have done a lot of super dumb shit.
Don’t disagree but fuck Gardner is frustrating. Has been looking to punish the Chiefs all half. Ratima for only retreating 9.875 metres. Gatland for trying to catch a pass ….

How many tackles has Coombes-Fabling missed?

Man I hate the way they rule ‘deliberate’ knock ons.
Hate it.
They have changed it and forgot to tell these muppet refs.
Changed it how?
I’ll find the wording. Made it clear that genuine attempts to intercept were not to be judged as deliberate knock ons

MP have been cleaning out well beyond the ruck and coming in from the side. Gardner doesn't give a fuck.

I think Donk has pulled players a little too early. Kinda shows that if the Chiefs have a few injuries to some key players then they'll struggle.
You could say that about any side to be fair.

@Jailbreak7 its a tactic the Chiefs used with great effect under Rennies watch

@Crucial
[Only penalize a clear and deliberate attempt to knock the ball forward, without trying to regain possession. Can be escalated to yellow and/or penalty try if it denies a probable try or is judged to be an extremely cynical action denying a clear line break opportunity.If the actions of the Player demonstrated no intent to catch the ball, it should be deemed a deliberate knock on and sanctioned with a penalty only. Yellow Cards would be reserved for extremely cynical actions that prevented a clear try scoring opportunity or line break opportunity.](https://super.rugby/superrugby/documents/media-files/super-rugby-pacific-2023-law-modifications/?utm_source=SANZAAR+Media+%26+Judicial&utm_campaign=254040b178-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2020_05_14_01_09_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_03e5f75ecc-254040b178-332696173)

I thought it was a good call against Gatland. He put his arm up in a hail mary action. Didn't look controlled at all.
The fact he got a second go at it is IMO immaterial. The first action wasn't an attempt to intercept. That he was the last defender resulted in a deserved penalty try.

@Yeetyaah said in Moana Pasifika v Chiefs:
Any ideas if Moana would face some disciplinary action from putting an extra man out there when they weren't supposed to? Say what you will about the rule but at the end of the day it's still a rule.
I think the refs got it wrong when they denied the replacement. That bloke was clearly in need of a head check and Gardner discouraged the med staff from checking him on field by saying that if he needed more attention he would have to leave. Messy as he had a physical injury as well as a knock.
Gardner just gets games into messy situations in my opinion.
