The ref really has made some absolute clangers. The definition of an obstruction led to the Lions going 60 metres. They scored from the resulting territory.

This is why the Highlanders are shit. Score points, then from the kick-off, give them the ball back 25m out. Absolute stupidity. Win the ball off a turn off, lose the ball 3 phases later with a half-assed offload. Why am I watching? Tomkinson needs to be fucking hooked. Absolute muppet...

Yeah, not sure why it wasn't. Professional knock on artist that Franklin. (although the ref just evened it up) Amongst a slew of fantastic options, NOW I've truly seen the dumbest mistake of the season. Tomkinson getting tackled then remembering he is actually in SEAL training and crawling...

Typical Highlanders, score a try, then old captain Brick Hands himself drops the restart, the winger subsequently rushes up on defence for no reason whatsoever, and they let in a try 1 minute before the half. Just bloody do as the Crusaders do already! How hard is that? Fucking NOT HARD, just...

Might be nice for a neutral but fuck me. I'm done with the Highlanders bullshit. I can't handle the levels of stupidity that team brings week in week out.

Yeah and about 11 penalties unanswered in 20 minutes. Fucking inept.

Well, 2 tests actually, and in the matches that are actually played like test matches, they were scraping though. England 1 point, SA 2 points. Fact is, for an AB side, they have under performed all year. Don't take this as me saying we need to panic and change, obviously not. Hansen has the...

Sums it up..

OK, well played Ireland, obviously. Nothing fantastic but they can put up a decent brick wall, which I guess is fantastic in its way. Absolutely brilliant try to win it as well. So a little bit fantastic. However.. Honestly.. honestly! If Hansen didn't have his record to fall back on and this...

Very very lucky win. How many of those charge downs get called back? Not too bad from the AB's considering they literally decide to shoot themselves in the foot for the first 30 minutes, every single game. It's like playing 50 minutes of rugby. If they were a bit smarter they could have ended...

Wow! That's a dog decision on Lawes. That is just too bloody marginal to ping him for that.

Ashton absolutely threw himself backwards out of contact.. and gets rewarded. There really are dullards afoot.

Fucking wow Smith! Pump fake a fucking draw and pass. Certain try gone. And the captain plays idiot touch ball. In the wet, 10 out! Dudes....

I know it's tough for Australians to not mix up line speed with standing offside. Never quite mastered it eh.. ;)

Took 41 minutes for them to actually call it.

England are frankly MILES offside in phase play. No offside penalties in the first half, that'll happen. Can't remember the last time the All Blacks played in the wet.. it shows. I really look forward to the day we don't waste 30 minutes just kicking the ball away before we start playing.

Angus Gardner is pretty good for a ref but he does come up with the odd clanger. Clear pen and yellow for the shoulder, it couldn't be more obvious. Frankly, I think he did a rush job because it was the end of the game and he had a few too many English eyes peering at him. A French ref would...

Well I was wrong about that one. Not a bad performance all round. Not a fan of Luke Whitelock as a test 8 so that probably helped. Ofa also stepped up big time this game. How was BB's tackle on El Complaino? What a hit but somehow that is now 'illegal', lol. Thought the refs were pretty much...

Pretty concerned that pack is gonna get mullered without lurch. Couple of those props are lacking. This could depend very much on whether BB goes god mode or horrendously stupid mode. A loss is frankly much more likely than previous years. Argentina are better, AB's are worse. I'd love Dan to...

Yikes, was Foley open on the wing?
