That should have been a yellow. Ref even said that there was no mitigation. :crazy:

In combination with the messy musketeer rucks, this could be an odd one.

I will never not hate a yellow-card / penalty / penalty try against an attempted intercept, regardless of if the player was in a position to regather or not.

It should be a knock-on and nothing more.

That’s a yellow any other time that happens. Why not this time? I missed the ref chat.

It’s not their fault really. They’re colour blind.

Wasnt a clear scoring opportunity, plenty of cover, far enough out from the 22, no yellow for me.... Its ordinarily a knock on, so a scrum, it was deemed deliberate so increased to a penalty, there was nothing to escalate it further than that.

All Blacks are the most honest and skillful team ever and never knowingly cheat, so there's no way that it could possibly have been anything other than an attempt at another intercept?

Oi! Keewees! It’s less fun if you don’t react.

AWJ doesn’t go down injured easily. He’s holding his arm/shoulder very gingerly.

That's the third NZ penalty that Peranara has immediately seized with no apparent purpose other than to have the cameras on him ... and he gave that last one away with a peek up at the big screen.
Pretty much how he knows the cameras will linger on him every damned time during the anthem when he performs his closed eyes shirt-grab act.

There is absolutely nothing what so ever in that jump. That is a farcical call by the video ref.

The ref and TMO need to seriously piss off - messing up what could be a decent match

(and I have no doubt that the All Blacks will outplay Wales and win comfortably, I just want to watch a good match).

We are still second best at the break down. Two welshmen are getting there before any all black arrives.

I’m concerned the ref is going to fellate one of the ABs in full view soon. It will not be pretty.
