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.

[Digby]

HIA for Sexton?

[Banquo]

Don't have a good feeling about this.

NZ very nervy.

[Digby]

maybe his brains are in his ankle

[Digby]

AWJ just ensured he'll be subbed off

[Buggaluggs]

maybe his brains are in his ankle

he is oirish

[WaspInWales]

Te'o's first action is to catch the short l-r pass from Farrell from above his head

[Banquo]

fortunately, NZ's counter attack is poor.

AWJ off, but likely that was the plan anyway.

Kaino goose may be cooked here.

A little too much.

[jared_7]

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

[Banquo]

definite penalty, possibly yellar.

Massive moment

Yes, well

[Digby]

On the face of it the Lions are pushing what's allowed and perhaps just flat out cheating

[Banquo]

bad time for George to do his first bad dart

[I R Geech]

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

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

[Digby]

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

It's a bit much to want a red

[jared_7]

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.

agreed . abusing the HIA is a bit shit, really

Yes, well

mocker gods were quick on that one.

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

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?

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.
