Waratahs v Highlanders

[Machpants]

Um how was mad-eye Hooper not carded for same as Smith?

[MajorRage]

Well thats consistent isn't it.

Just for the sake of controversy, you think he's at least check it on the big screen!!!

Definitive proof that pissing and moaning about the ref in the media works.

[Kirwan]

If the Tahs lose this Aussie rugby is dead.

[Bones]

@majorrage you don't need to check the big screen if you're wanting to look deliberate in your bias?

[MajorRage]

Highlanders hot on attack ON THE LINE. Tats steal the ball and stop the attack.

By the Aaron Smith definition, thats a clear yellow card.

Yes I'm surprised that wasn't a card. Should have been at least a warning.

[antipodean]

Ref's argument is idiotic. If Hooper misses, he's left a huge gap in the line.

[Bones]

Sopoaga needs to stop panicking.

The stitch up is on fullas.

Agree. He should have had a look at the wide angle. If he looks at the wide angle and determines there's no attacking play then fair enough no YC, but to not even look was poor and inconsistent (and frankly a bad look).

He's playing like mud.

[Bones]

Something needs to be done about Hooper's head trying to eat his eyeballs.

[Machpants]

I LOATHE it when halfbakcs try and play the ref rather than the game FFS Toilet Boy!

[ACT Crusader]

This is some dire footy

[Stargazer]

So why didn't Beale get a card for a deliberate knock-on? Not different to Smith's.

[Bones]

That is a tight forward pass call.

[antipodean]

How can we only have 15 on the board when they're playing with 14 and we outnumbered them by two for 10 mins?

[Tim]

@antipodean Trying to score a try off every play.

[Bones]

@antipodean and almost twice as much possession...

[Siam]

@bones fuck yeah. That ball travelled less forward than those videos showing forward momentum alters the ball path
