Thanks for the updates, pity if the ref was a shocker but I'm not going to complain about the result. How was the crowd?

 

[Sully]

Are you doing a write up on the game mate?

Thanks for the updates Gaffa.

The Force I feel were pretty lucky this year, pushing the boundaries at the breakdown. With a large Force contingent in the 15 were they really unlucky at the ruck or were they pushing the boundaries too much?

Cheers gaffa awesome coverage. Uppa city!

Great day at McGillivray this afternoon, even if the result didn't go our way. Good crowd too I reckon. Big congrats to Brizzy who kept it close all game and then scored the crucial break away try to force us (pardon the pun) to chase the game. Reffing wasn't great, but we were our own worst enemies at times. Bloody frustrating loss that was.

BTW, saw Link in the crowd this afternoon. He would have liked Kev's game I think.

Can you give an update on how all the Wallabies in the game went, including Kev, Hodgson, and Godwin? (Were they the only three?)

Also who stood out for each team would be great!

Big shame about Kerevi pulling out right before the game.

Agreed great family day at the rugby.

Question for those that were there. In the second half City kicked long, ball was caught by one of the Spirit reserves who threw it to the winger who took a quick lineout. Spirit were penalised at the point it was thrown in. Does anyone know if something happened at the kick or was the penalty created at the throw in? If so what the he'll for?

On a side note, any one ever seen advantage paid after a scrum goes 90 before?

Still a few phones out but a much better rendition, might just have this down by the end of season!

Pretty sure one of the new rules it that the reserves can't interfere with the ball when kicked out, whether they are helping or preventing a quick throw.
