Young Aussie Two Dads is a rubbish kicker, no distance at all.

Yes, so hell bent that he gave the TMO an on field decision of no try and waited to see what the footage showed :crazy:

For Valentini under the posts? He clearly said to the TMO 'on field decision is no try as I haven't got a grounding'.

Touchy called it, Barnes took his advice.

Early signs are that Beauden Barrett could cost us a Bledisloe tonight.

ABs aren't helping themselves by not effectively clearing and securing their ruck ball. Some really sloppy presentation. Barnes is being more liberal when interpreting 'first man in' than I'm used to seeing from him, but that needs to be adjusted for on the field by the players.

Australia making a game of this, that body check needs to be looked at, looked very close shoulder to head.

Is there any chance that Beauden Barrett could fuck off back to fullback where he was selected to play.

Once he starts coming in like this he takes ages to have it beaten out of him.

First time I've ever heard the noticeable distance thing in relation to a quick tap. Swear I've seen plenty of occasions where it's literally just contact between boot and ball with basically no distance travelled.

Jordie will step up.

Mo’unga is playing in the line now and the attack looks better straight away.

Just checking. Are you allowed to interfere with the ball with your legs, when you’re lying in the ruck?

No. But he was looking the other way with DeGroot on his back.

Sounded as if the TMO made that rule up on the spur.

From World Rugby

Taking a penalty or free-kick

A penalty or free-kick must be taken without delay.
Any player from the non-offending team may take it, other than for a free-kick awarded for a mark.
The kicker must use the ball that was in play unless the referee decides it is defective.
The kicker may punt, drop-kick or place-kick (other than for touch) the ball.
The kicker may kick the ball in any direction.
Other than the placer at a place-kick, the kicker’s team must remain behind the ball until it has been kicked.
The ball must be kicked a visible distance. If the kicker is holding it, it must clearly leave the hands. If it is on the ground, it must clearly leave the mark. Once the kick has been successfully taken the kicker may play the ball again.
Sanction: Scrum.
