Agreed on the comms. Gotta say it though, these northern refs are like polar opposite to southern refs. Some might even say complete shite. Hurricanes are paying for their some of their bad decisions and poor play. To be fair to the ref they have been ill disciplined. Quite a few of the...

For fucks sake, let them leave the ball at the back of the ruck for 15 seconds why don't you.

The Lions sure are scummy at the lineout eh.

Ok, so test on then.

Lions pretty fucking adept at slowing the ball down at ruck time. Chiefs B squad playing some loose bullshit, Lions playing test rugby. Pray for rain.

Naholo, NMS, Ioane all waiting in the wings. If the business doesn't get done there will be somoene ready.

The last play was mind boggling. First, why not try and milk a penalty with your supposed strength, the lineout maul? Caveat: assuming they were adept enough to bail the ball out if they needed. So they don't do that, fine. They moved the ball to centre field, makes sense. Easy hit up, finish...

They're already sorted. Gardner's last involvement was this match. He's usually quite good (one of best in Super Rugby) but he gave the rub to the Highlanders tonight. Bloody hell though. You beauty! :)

Gardner muffs the ruck call, HAS to give that to the Lions.

No doubts about that one.

Henderson, Webb, Walden, Naholo have all been fantastic. Biggar takes a bloody dive.

Wow, absolute dodge scrum call against the Lions.

The Lions did play pretty well. Defended well, kicked well (especially from 9). Gotta say, they got a couple of very favourable decisions in their own 22 in the second half but deserved the win of course. This looks like just about their best side so, to be expected. Looking forward to...

Itoje with an out and out professional foul. Ref standing 2 metres away, nothing.

Murray's kicks are spot on at the moment. This must be close to the match day 23 for the Lions surely.

Time to bring Drummond on, Hall is too slow to release it.

Fkn rough penalty for offside, looked bs to me.

Always wondered about this. Some sides can get the ball back to the 8 instantly, others not. Wonder how much the hooker is worth in this regard.

Other side of the coin were the Australian's completely flopping on the ball. Could have gone either way.

It should matter. Context matters for everything. Are we reducing decision making to the realm of the dullard?
