South Africa vs New Zealand

[Leonormous Boozer]

Has it been disallowed? LEgging it to the shop at HT.

Remember when you'd win a penalty kick in the red but you couldn't use your most advantageous option from that penalty. Thank god they fixed that.

Couple pints in and obviously have the stadium atmosphere influence (because clearly this is a Springboks home game)… but this feels unnaturally dominant? If anything we are poor for not having more points on the board.

Does anyone know why mark telea broke out so late? Crazy a guy like that doesnt make it to international rugby before 25 when most all black wings get in so young.

I always think it swings in roundabouts, part of the reason you were so dominant territory wise is because NZs repeated last ditch defences preventing points but rarely getting out of their half, had you scored earlier the territory and stats may not be anything like they were.

If I remember correctly diyanti was a late bloomer as well. Idk exactly what caused it though.

Knocked on at the ruck - close IMO, definitely worth another look but the TMO said he'd checked all the angles before calling the refs attention to it and was confident so

How was Barrett's 2nd yellow not upgraded?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

How was Barrett's 2nd yellow not upgraded?

Yeah, very surprised at that


Not the ideal start to the half for the ABs...

 

[Jimbo]

Would be surprised if he's summoned for further review

 

[Saintjay]

Do you still get a ban after two yellows?

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

I can only think the thought process is "he's not coming back on regardless, leave it to the commissioner."

SA could kill NZ's world cup here, thought to bounce back from a mailing from your biggest rival.

Automatic citing but don't think it's an automatic ban

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Boks shouldn't be allowed to make subs, it's just unfair

 

[Jimbo]

I thought that was if they were both received for foul play.

I'm sure i've seen players in the prem up in front of the beak for two yellows before, but might be wrong

Your probably right, might just be a miss assumption on my part.

 

[Jer1cho]

Um ok

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Ah, brutal
Was a fantastic try, those steps were just disrespectful - definitely offside though

 

[Jer1cho]

Yeah replay cleared it. Offside for sure
