Chiefs v Brumbies, Rnd 4, FMG Stadium Feb 22 17:05

[Up the Guts]

Wouldn’t foul play usurp offside?

 

[Show-n-go]

Ah doesn’t a foul play penalty override an offside penalty??

Yeh that is what I thought - what does the rules say? And as I speak chiefs score. Keep that mental edge and belief brumbies

Laws don't say what overrides what. The directives from World Rugby say foul play should always be reviewed.

Kiwi ref has been improvising hard the last couple of penalties at ruck time.

 

[Up the Guts]

Pickerell looking to even things up.

 

[Derpus]

Here come thr kiwis doing their thing.

 

[Show-n-go]

Also yellow card seems a bit rough, brumbies would have been pretty close to ten, ref and sideline weren’t back to mark the 10 and no verbal communication from the ref as to stay out/if they are onside etc

Pretty poorly managed

 

[Rugbynutter39]

I am concerned - as oz sides shown inability to play 80 minute football if brumbies lose from here it is not going to do much for my belief in oz super rugby sides ability to play 80 minute football

You're 10 or you aren't. It was in the red zone and he was impeding play. No problem with that card.

The penalty at the ruck, however? Fuck.

Yea sure a penalty is a penalty, dick move to send someone for it though when your own incompetence is a contributing factor. If you’re going to allow teams to quick tap you need to be communicating with the defence

I'm not even sure where to being with that. Have you been drinking?

FFS. I watch some YouTube for 20 minutes, flick back, and now these bastards are within two scores and have the ball ~20 metres out.

The Blues-in-orange have repulsed them this time, but this still dangerously reeks of the week 1 match.

 

[Derpus]

Silly rugby creeping in, needed to hoof that out.

Yeah. Stop kicking away possession you can use, and make sure it is in the stands when you can't

Probably check to make sure you’ve strung your sentence together correctly before throwing shade old mate

 

[molman]

Brumbies need to keep playing. Switched off a little. Not as clinical.

 

[Up the Guts]

Brumbies need some territory and then milk a soft penalty to go out by more than two scores.

 

[qwerty51]

Pickerill is absolutely cooking the Brumbies this half. If it were the Reds they’d be down by 15 already.

Excellent resilience by the Brumbies SO FAR.

Stuff that. Go for another try

 

[Derpus]

Still Too long for the Brumbies to hold onto this game
