A few games ago the Reds were warned that this was unsportsmanlike play.
Personally I love it, but a great example of inconsistency in referees this year.

Enjoyed the game. Initial thoughts:
- looking at the team sheets ill admit i was worried about this one and my concerns were warranted. Force outplay reds for large portions of that game..the less said about the lineout the better. Still the sign of a great side is being able to pull out a win even when your not playing great footy. Credit to the team in that regard but if this game was played in perth i think force probably beat them.
-how many razor tight games have we seen in super rugby this year. The competiveness of every team from 1 to 11 is making it so much more intriguing than years past.

I watched it again and I can't see how he thought the forve knocked it on after the rip. It is what it is though.

I am happy that is over, why do the Force always save their best spoiling efforts for us?

I'll start with we should of won that game. The last Reds try came from not competing in the lineout when we had stolen their ball all game! Why go away from a strength??
Can't knock the intensity as the boys were all over it all game. Tizzano try scoring and Robbo great to see that achilles is healthy on that run. Getting to love De Crespiney work ethics and love of the tough dark arts leart in France. A Wallabies smokey. The Lineoit.....Suburb, an absolute strength and should of backed yourself.
Some sneaky good performances given the weather and an entertaining game. Just felt we should of and could of won that. Need to beat your Oz rivals and knock the kiwis off where you can.
A great entertaining game. We push on into next week against another plucky team in the Highlanders.
Let's stay strong. This is a good Force team and proud to back them in week to week. GO You Force !

Both his feet are in the air, the thing on the ground is the corner flag.

just returned home..
Haven’t read the commentary; but I’ll assume there’s a few Tahs fans floating in here throwing shade and hopefully plenty of criticism about the debacle which was lineout. Turned into an absolute disaster and fans were cheering louder when they won a lineout then they did a try. I’m guessing the chopping and changing(egh rotation) of the back 5 hasn’t helped, but that was pretty shocking.
otherwise, Lynagh and the Reds scrum won that game. Good win considers the number of players Reds were missing, I’d say this is the benefit of the reds off-season matches and tours.

You honestly care more about the Tahs than Tahs fans...

Bro… we literally had 60mm of rain today, yesterday it was 30mm. I had to inspect houses today and it was dangerous just been on the roads

And Rebels players. Reds definitely have better depth in their squad. It was a good game. This season has been great.

Yes. I heard the TMO in the rugby ears saying his feet and lower legs were in the air when the ball was grounded.

fuck me this constant criticism of one another Super Rugby teams and crowd because they’re less then the AFL and NRL teams in town in ever match-day thread is tiring.

I mean yeah kinda... not about your lineout but about the Tah fans

I agree. I’ve only gone down the petty path because of it always being anti Tahs this or Tahs fault for anything in Rugby in this country.
Tahs just want to live at the bottom of the well and we’ll make the players for the Brumbies to do well with.
