Bin the Ruff was saying he was fine. Good to see Sefrica running the ball with a lot of pace.

As a former second row myself it was a lol of admiration really. As I say, do it til the ref says you can't.

I thought they were going for a drop goal.

Good competition on the high ball. WLR unlucky there.

Indeed. I was a tall stick insect of a player but was in the second row or blind side. It was magnificent to see.

I hate high kicks into the 22 from positions like that. This one worked out, but they often don't and it's so negative.

It’s league like. Five tackles and high kick into the corner. Rinse and repeat for 80 minutes.

The one thing that refs miss and I really think it is inexcusable and every side does it. From kicks offs there is literally a white line to show players in front.

Nigel giving Bin the Ruff a hard time for not letting the game flow. It’s tough for him. Let too much go and he’ll be on the receiving end of more PowerPoint presentations than the world has ever seen. Whistle too much and he’ll get done for ruining the game.

Or taking the kick from 3 yards over the line.

Yeah every side does it.

A lot of rule changes are to open up spaces and yet the easiest rule in the game to enforce is ignored.

Why would you penalise Kolbe for that? It was just dogshit tackling technique.

Wee players get off far easier than us forwards. If that is a second row there have been a card.

Kolbe is too light weight. He’s getting pinged around like a rag doll.

Yeah, but the dogs hit nature of his technique made him lead with the head. It’s reckless.

Was just thinking, if it were anyone of a more normal size (for a rugby player) that definitely gets pinged.

Earlier in the season in the Prem it would've been a red. Everything got a bit random and inconsistent towards the end and internationals seem to be far more reluctant to "RuIn ThE gAMe" with a card, so I understand not giving a red here. It's sure as shit not nothing, though.

His dogshit technique is a danger to other players.

Whether Kolbe should have been carded or not, if that was PSdT, EE, CL, AWJ etc it is a red card.

This isn't a SA v BIL thing it is a big lad and wee lad thing.
