No, he said he's not averse to looking at changing it. Doesn't matter, it won't change NZR knows that long term suicide for rugby in NZ

So weren't there hakas by all the other kiwi teams this round, except in this game?
The Chiefs have a Māori Kapa Haka group that does a pre-match haka every home game.
Was the half-time laser show shown on the live broadcast?

@Bovidae Whinging to the refs must be a Barrett thing. I noticed Jordie has been doing quite a lot of this also.
-
@Jailbreak7 Scott is his team's captain. Jordie isn't.

Watched Stevenson try a few times to try and work out how DMAc had such a huge hole to run into.
Havili totally misread the play and bit in on a forward runner well after the pass out the back from Gatland was made.
I still have no idea what Christie and Ennor were doing charging up out wide as if DMac was going to pass before running.
Really poor defence and good taking advantage of it. -

Not sure wasn't paying attention!

@Stargazer Funnily enough I didnt notice Scooter whinging much yesterday, perhaps he should take a leaf out of his brothers book and get more involved that way.

Yes, but Razor wants to change the eligibility rules.
If we change that rule for that player, we are already fucked.

Whinging is an opposition thing. It is conversing with the ref when it is your team. Weber is especially good at "conversing" with the ref.

Not sure if we should be taking someone's random thought out of nowhere and getting all doomy and gloomy about it.

Really poor defence and good taking advantage of it.crusaders took the space outside dmac away in the first half, filled there lines with defenders. which will be why christie and ennor rushed up. dummy runnerin close fotced them to take him and make a different destion . good coaching who ever made the change at half time

Good point on them taking up the space out wide but in this case they failed to stay connected. The reason I rewatched is that they created such a huge hole.
Havili wasn't forced to come in, he misread the play IMO although I think RM had two runners coming at him so given his defensive weaknesses maybe Havili thought he had no option. Not a good sign for the ABs and will have been written down by other coaches with glee.
Would have to watch the phases beforehand to work out why the backline D was so out of order. It appeared to be RM, DH, TC, BE. Neither Saders or Chiefs had any wingers in that direction and Burke was MIA for the Saders.
