v All Blacks III: the Decider

[Big D]

Kaino showing just how much he was missed.

Love watching the big man go about his work. No fuss just brutal efficiency.

Yes, well

mocker gods were quick on that one.

[Digby]

bad time for George to do his first bad dart

Excellent work from the NZ lineout, even more so with Kaino off

This is bullshit, what a joke the sport has become.

Would you say that had it been the other way round?

Yes.

That's not a shoulder charge, there is no malice. It's a completely standard tackle, you tackle people with your arms. If they duck head first to drive into the tackle I'm not sure what you are supposed to do.

Good, just checking.

[Digby]

forwards?

[Buggaluggs]

What a fucking joke, how you guys think this is acceptable is beyond me. That is just a standard tackle and AWJ ducks head first into the tackle.

It's a fucking disgrace. It's not even a penalty.

ABs have got away with murder for years as refs were too scared to card an AB. Turn around is fair play in my book.

Not a shoulder charge but definitely a swinging arm. I agree getting fed up with contact being taken away but definite penalty and nder the present guidance a yellow.

Oh good, payback seems like a good refereeing policy.

Anyone who thinks that is a penalty has surely never had to tackle someone in a game before.

[Banquo]

Barrett boys not at their best today

[Digby]

Messy from the Lions

And surely anyone who doesn't think it's a penalty is an AB fan boy who has never seen their team refereed fairly.

[Banquo]

bad mistake from Daly. Good kick...but...

[Banquo]

Cue Jared rage

[Big D]

Squeaky bum time now.

[Banquo]

wow. Who's your money on?

[morepork]

Oh come on...

[jared_7]

That's worse than the other one, at least there the player is going high towards the head area and that's his fault.

[Galfon]

12 - 12 after 60 min. Faz. pen.
BIL's getting tails up.

[jared_7]

Cue Jared rage

Fuck off, these rules are baffling.

[Buggaluggs]

12-12 pretty fair reflection of the game so far

[Banquo]

ABs very ragged. Definitely top 2 inches now.

[Banquo]

Cue Jared rage

Fuck off, these rules are baffling.

Cue ED

[Digby]

Good decision to knock that ball on the end that Lions attack

[Buggaluggs]

Cue Jared rage

Fuck off, these rules are baffling.

..you're baffling

[WaspInWales]

We're gonna win this!
