That is a bullshit call. That was simply a brutal tackle. How dare he smash th chosen one.

Love the intensity though. This is great.

Rubbish call. not high and not illegal

 

[badabing59]

Hate to say it, but battleship hard done by there

 

[gel]

Terrible decision.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

The Kiwi commentators don't think it is a YC either, to their credit.

 

[Sully]

love the 1/2 throwing in though.

at least we have plenty of 1st Vs

love the 1/2 throwing in though.

And like the scrums, they can't feed a lineout straight either. It is in their DNA.

The Boks really have been great at the breakdown. Marshall was right, they must of spent a lot of time working on it.

Australia doesn't even come close, nor does any other country, these two are the best in the world by a long long way

 

[Garryowen]

What's more baffling is that Poite had the opportunity to review the tackle on tv.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

No love lost here. Why did they schedule the Wobs vs the AIG's before the Bokke had damaged them?

 

[No4918]

Kirchner is crap. That attempt on Barrett made Cooper look awesome

 

[badabing59]

I'm liking BB at 10! Great try!

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Cracker of a game.

AIG's get meat under the sticks.

 

[Sully]

Seriously the AIG joke was lame to start with and now months later it's really pretty sad.

I wish we had a big ugly munter like Retallick. Great try after Barrett lead up.

Just back from the local Rugby GF's (ripper of a day). Maybe its just the rums talking but I thought the Battleship yellow was an absolutely stupid call (obviously I'm not alone on that opinion either). If those sort of refereeing "standards" were enforced today at the local GF's they would of had to of sent every player off.

 

[Garryowen]

Why is the crowd booing Bismarck for a legit tackle?

Give yourselves an uppercut.

 

[Sully]

I thought they were booing the decision

M. Poite will be as welcome as B Lawrence in Safferland if he keeps this performance up.
