BB makes a half break and then gives the ball back to the SI.

That type of situation happens all the time and is always given.
I’d suggest the players at the front fell away. Still the same maul. Quite often players leave the front and side of the main il and rejoin at the back.

Yes!!!. (Waits nervously for TMO to find some slightly alternate reality...)

South can thank the North prop for giving away the scrum pen on the half way line in a scrum for that 7 pointer.

The irony is that it is often passion about a loss that leads to those type of comments. It’s the caring that leads to the comment “yeah, but we don’t really care, it isn’t all that matters to us.”Fat Old Git wrote: Sat Sep 05, 2020 7:42 amIf that is the case than you have nothing else in your life but rugby either.Not_Couch wrote: Sat Sep 05, 2020 7:38 amThey are usually right about usFat Old Git wrote: Sat Sep 05, 2020 7:28 am

Why, because he couldn't stop man-mountain JB from 1 metre out?

Neither #9 is getting any protection from the ref at rucktime.

Dunshee and Moody have tackled more players off the ball than with it. I hate that shit.

OMG the TMO thought BB was back the ten metres and the referee overrode him. That's hilarious.

Dead set penalty against Moody. He's been on toast all night.

Good first half. Looked to me like Laulala was offside just before Taylor's non-try. He momentarily detached but never got back behind the ball carrier.
Moody's getting monstered by Ofa in the scrum. How many times has he had his elbow or knee on the ground?
Vaa'i's been far from anonymous - he's doing a ton of work on defence.

The south are bringing all the Crusaders dirty tricks to the game, which is a crying shame because it's been a pretty good game otherwise.

Won't affect ABs selections but Mo'unga was in B. Barrett's shadow tonight.
