Brumbies v Crusaders Rd 16 (last) Fri 30th May @ GIO Stadium 7.35pm AEST

[Merrow]

Ok mate so the other forums where some are claiming it a knock back are wrong? I didn't take much notice of them either, easier to watch myself if it worries me. I take it Crusaders scored directly from the knock on?

Yes they were wrong. It literally happened in front of me

Hearing reports yet another try awarded following a blatant knock on?

I thought this was the year tries were being disallowed 20 phases following a knock on?

What changed last night?

How are you not fully onboard the Evil South Island Death Star conspiracy wagon?

Thats twice now their resident sex pest has clearly dropped it in the lead up to a try. Not to mention the tackle seemingly dont apply to the bloke.

Always love checking the stats and then reading the thread.

Brumbies missed 32 tackles last night. How many of those can we blame Doleman for?

Any calls to hold Muithead and Frost accountable for their 5 missed tackles?

While this is valid i think refs (all four of them) should miss less knock ons than they do.

Andy surely should fess up to his refusal to try to stop that last try off the rolling maul. Ryan Lonergan gave it his best shot but by that time the hooker was already over the tryline.

Don't think I've ever seen Rob Valetini play better. He had an immense game, especially in defence and it looked like more than a few Crusaders were looking to avoid him when carrying the ball. It was simply an unbelievable shift by Bobby V.

 

[Brumby Runner]

Do you reckon they need to get Meredith on per chance?

Not at that stage of the game. I just want to see all clearance kicks from the 22 being taken by Ryan Lonergan (box kicks), Tom Wright (right foot kick for touch/distance) and Len Ikitau (left foot kick for touch/distance). Noah should keep the goal kicking, but be totally relieved of all other kicking duties.
