Mate, I agree that the ref blaming on these forums can be over the top. I really dislike blaming the ref for a loss. I don't blame the ref for this loss (I blame the discipline and yellow cards mostly). But in the case of the Foley time-wasting, I think the noise is justified. it did ruin a good...

So he's the best on field or 3rd best?

Can we please talk about how good Valetini and Samu were.

No we didn't miss the point. We heard it 100 times now.

Foley made a shit call. The Ref made a shit call. They aren't mutually exclusive. Both are to blame.

Think about a rugby game 10 years ago where 3 yellow cards were issued. It would be headline news. These days we hardly even bat an eye. It's just part of the game.

I don't understand why there are this many of these type off yellows these days. Same with Gordon's yellow. 7-8+ years ago (or maybe longer) these were unheard of. Happens every bloody game now. Swains I understand. All these other yellow cards are popping up all over the place. Scrum yellows...

Think there might be a few injuries for next week though. Leota probably out.

Literally every post on this forum is only an opinion. Please take every post of mine as an opinion from now on. Happy for you to question them all.

I stand corrected.

no idea what you're on about BR.

The bombed try was bad. And a turning point in the game.

Huh?

I would take an injury prone Petaia over Wright now. Petaia maybe the most naturally gifted out of all the options.

Even Gordon's try saver could have been ruled a head high.

Foley was standing closer to the ref but couldn't hear? I think he was just waiting for the forwards to watch his kick.

Um. ?

Is the 20min red card rule effective in the Rugby Championship now?

I was really impressed with Foketi, few solid runs too. He was also the one yelling at Foley to kick the ball out so that shows he can read the game and ref pretty well - well at least better then Foley did at the time.

I swear Tom Wright has given the exact same yellow card away 3 times now. When is he going to learn a yellow is worse then a try.
