I'm not going to open this can of worms other than to tell you that you are obviously wrong, and I hope you are joking.

Jeez this Force team cheats constantly at the breakdown, to the point where I'm not sure they actually know the rules?

From where I was sitting it was the Reds infringing left right and centre - particularly in the first half. They were all over the Reds tonight and deserved the win. Very impressed with them at them moment 4 wins in a row against some pretty good opposition - Reds, Rebels, Chiefs and Highlanders.

I only watched about 25 minutes of the 1st half and it was the Reds giving away the penalties every time the Force was in there half, I really felt the Reds should have had a man in the bin early given the level there were at, and it was blatant to stop the Force getting a roll on.

Like Kiwis with the Pacific Islanders

trololololol surely
