"Keep pushing straight and stay up" - ref to Crockett. Just looks confused. Gold!

^^^^^^^^^^ did you notice how in the 1st scrum penalty it was Crockett's elbow that touched the ground first but Franks who got pinged? Crockett being several cm taller I seriously doubt it was a case of Franks bearing down...........

I wondered that too WOB, but I know ref is a lot closer than me and figured he would get idea what is going on.

And he told Franks, the THP to "keep your bind". The ref has unravelled the mystery of scrumming in one perfect exchange! THPs dropping binds, and LHPs boring in and folding. Who'd have thought?

Punters getting nervous, HorrorCanes now $1.67-$2.05 CruSadists.

And the 2nd scrum penalty involved Crockof's hand touching the turf

The whole exchange was just funny - they both looked like they were thinking "yeah, whatever!". Then re-pack it 3 times and that side collapses anyway!

I dislike these NZ derbies. Reminds me how bad the Aus sides are.
