Just got back from the game - credit to the blues who dominated the collisions and had us on the back foot.
Thought the turning point was the tackle in the air penalty at the 25min mark. Resulted in a 5m lineout, rolling maul, yellow card and two tries whilst down to 14 men. Game over.
Looked like a legit competition for the ball real time at the ground.
What was take on tv/replays? Haven’t seen any comments here so presuming it was worse than it looked real time
Didn't seem to have eyes for the ball or reach for it. Also didn't seem to cause the knock on or put the other player in danger.
Honestly, who the fuck knows anymore? The only reason Daugunu scored that try in the second half was because the Blues players refused to compete for it, presumably out of fear for a yellow. Who the fuck knows what the rules are anymore.
