RWC: All Blacks v South Africa (Pool B)
-
@MajorRage interesting watching the SA move his bind form Moody's body to his shoulder or arm...I doubt that would have any effect on Moody dropping to the ground.
Honestly, I do not see the point of a penalty in those situations, in each, the ball was at the back of the scrum, what benefit to this game and the game as a whole does a reset and/or penalty serve?
It is a shame there weren't multiple SA infractions for some bored out of his head Kiwi to make one of those about.

@taniwharugby the poor chap is either wrong or doesn’t understand rugby at all in pretty much each point!

@MajorRage is this what the game has come to? Pedantic reimagining of the laws to justify that your team gets beaten? FFS, people, the players are better than this, lift your game.
ALso, GAGR did it better with circles and arrows

:reimagining of the laws
Unfortunately that is what you get with Faeces. Completely random and frustrating as a fan. He seems to view them as guidelines open to "interpretation" - even the ones that are really quite clear.
Not going to validate that pathetic video, too stupid for words.

To be honest, this one is so bad I feel you are disrespecting the GAGR one by even mentioning it in the same post!

@MajorRage what’s really funny was all the ball and field position the Boks had in the first 20 minutes , and their game plan consisted of bashing into contact...
It’s all very well to highlight decisions that don’t go your way..but if you look inwardly.
Ask themselves this question..what could we have done better when we had ball in hand...?,it’s was only when you were down 3-17 that you managed to get some ball in the hands of Cheslin Kolbe..
They probably had the most dangerous back on the paddock ,but in the first 20 minutes you reverted to Type..
I think they need to Take a bit of responsibility and look at your own teams performance. -
@MajorRage The Media scumbags ruining the WC that's a pathetic video desperation written all over it.
We march on and stuff them by more points in the final then hold up the WC with a big Fuck you. -

I think they need to Take a bit of responsibility and look at your own teams performance.SA, along with a number of other teams, play old style rugby. Why should they not try to expand their gameplan? I know they tried it a few years ago and gave it away when there was a coaching change. My basic understanding is that at CC level they play much more open, and the Lions Stormers and Sharks certainly try to play open at times. They shouldn't forget that back in the day we were the major exponents of 10 man rugby and at one time Wales led the way with running rugby. Perhaps their fans should ask why they persist with anti-rugby when they should be capable of much more?

Anti-rugby? What a load of rubbish. Ten-man rugby is a perfectly valid style of rugby.

Agree, there are many ways to win a rugby game. I'd be perfectly happy for the All Blacks to play 10 man rugby if it resulted in success.

@DMX more speed across the park is where I think they want it. Good set defences are hard to break, but if teams are going to kick to us (even shallow kicks) then quickness is what will diffuse it.
Even if it’s a so called grind, we still have the defensive game and what limited opportunities there are we will have the team to take them.
-
To be fair, for the Boks it’s 9-man rugby given Faf does a lot of the kicking from the base and Pollard less so 😎

But I'm happy that we are a little more progressive than that

Is that a George Bridge reference?
