Have you never watched a doleman match before?

PTSD allows me to blank them out...

 

[Heavyd]

Is that the same ref that cost the Reds victory last weekend?

 

[dru]

Why isnt Noah positioning for a kick?

 

[Aussie D]

Tell me they are setting for a field goal.

 

[A mutterer]

these do not exist in australian rugby, pure myth.

 

[Aussie D]

Noah Lolesio has been the starting 10 for the Brumbies for 6 years. Any flyhalf worth his salt would have organised his team into field position to take the 3 there. Very poor leadership

 

[griffins]

Geez I was preparing a smug post about Noahs excellent game until that last 5 minutes happened

Doleman for the second week in a row gifts a game to the kiwi team....

 

[dru]

Great game Brumbies. I think you deserved it but I guess a little bias on my part. Crusaders defended for over 10 mins with time closing in, they did well.

I don't though, understand the lack of understanding of how to set up for a field goal. Very strange.

 

[Happy]

Why would they give this game to Doleman?

 

[whitefalcon]

There should be an official complaint from the brumbies about Doleman.
That was shithouse

 

[nathan]

Doleman is a fucking flog. What a joke.

 

[cyclopath]

I was a bit mystified why the Brumbies took the 3 when they had a few penalties from the Crusaders, and could have set for a lineup and maul from 5m out. There was always gonna be enough time after that penalty goal for the Crusaders given they had the kick-off.
And yeah, field goal might have been the play.
Tough for the Brumbies. But I think they kind of bottled it.

 

[Major Tom]

Can the TMO only intervene when there’s been a try scored? Could have easily reported that knock on.

 

[nathan]

Stain on the game.

they had plenty of opportunities

Yeah. I don’t think they can intervene unless it’s in the lead up to a try or foul play?

 

[Aussie D]

Like with all Oz teams it is often the little things when the pressure is on that leads to a loss.

Over to you Lynagh. That is unforgivable from Lolesio.

 

[Major Tom]

Have you ever heard “Counter ruck is good!” so much in a game? I mean probably not since the last Doleman game
