Force v Reds, Round 3 HBF Park, Perth 7:35pm

[Adam84]

Reds playing dumb.. Force in prime position to grind this home

 

[JRugby2]

Wtf daugunu, hero to zero in 0.1 seconds

 

[JRugby2]

Directly results in a try

SAKES

 

[Micheal]

Much deserved by the Force. Tizzano is having a fantastic start to the season.

 

[Adam84]

So.… under the new rules if a defender in the ruck can’t tackle the player at halfback within 1-2m of the ruck, how are you supposed to stop Tizzano there? He had Force players shielding him on both sides between him and the line.

 

[Major Tom]

Reds restarts have been pathetic!

 

[dru]

Nasser has been less than stellar.

If he was held up/ back the new law wouldn’t apply.

you can’t hit someone trying to play the ball away, pick and go is fair game

 

[SteveWA]

And given the officiating in the second half, I wouldn’t be whingeing about it if I was a red supporter

 

[Adam84]

Wow Blake… should get dropped for that stupid penalty

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Why did Uru kick that….

 

[A mutterer]

Much deserved by the Force. Tizzano is having a fantastic start to the season.

feels like hes outplayed his opponent tonight

 

[JRugby2]

Are the force…. good?

 

[Adam84]

Yeah they are good, that was clear last week… Reds are also playing dumb…
Losing the 5/8 to a head on head contact that wasn’t reviewed… doesn’t help the situation though

 

[rugbyAU]

If they can close this one out than they're very good.

 

[cyclopath]

Swain might be in strife

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Swain got him for sure but it’s a hell of a performance by HMP there.

 

[Adam84]

ironic they look at this one but not the hit Dolly did on Lynagh…

 

[Adam84]

Hmmmm dont agree with this, should have taken the 3

Hope to eat my words

 

[Marbig]

Absolute joke of a TMO and foul play assessment from the referees this game
