Northland v The Bay

[Stargazer]

Clearly forward, but given. Geez.

[Machpants]

Fucking refs have a hard job, but TMOs don't - fucking hell no wonder people are not watching anymore. That was awful, hard to get invested when that shit happens

[Donsteppa]

Hawera has played a big role keeping us in the game in the second half.

Good work Jordan Olsen

BOP knocked on. BS call.

[Machpants]

Fkn robbed

[taniwharugby]

Heremaia was held back as much as Gatland in the building up to that

[kev]

We have had some tough calls (wrong) in last 20.

And another one. BS

This ref is terrible.

[KiwiPie]

Some strange calls both ways - players look confused

You could clearly see that ball was in front of that foot, that's a penalty the other way. Fuck why bother

[taniwharugby]

Well i have tried hard this year not to criticise the refs when they are shit, as I know they have a hard job....

That pass which was clearly forward from the hands and no TMO intervention. Rugby does itself no favours when it is so amateur.

This guy was terrible. And TMO was no where to be seen. I never criticise refs but abysmal.

I was very relieved when it wasn't reviewed and didn't really understand why it wasn't

Better team have won despite the poor officiating , that last ruck summed up the Taniwha effort , thats where the game was won at the breakdown , thought the effort was way down from the Harbour game
Matich summed up it well , calls did’nt go there way but you cant keep putting yourself in those situations
Congratulations to the Bay and best wishes for the playoffs

[Duluth]

Some bad calls but Northland ask their defence to do too much volume each week. They keep fading at the end of games

Plus in the lead up to your final try. TTT picks up the ball ( like he has all the time in the world ) our guy knocks his hand, he spills the ball forward and BOP get scrum. Our possession and we kick to corner.

That said BOP dominated but not really good enough to put us away.
