Highlanders v Brumbies Sun 24 April

[Up the Guts]

A numbskull with the intellect and vocabulary of a 5-year old child.

"Um maybe grab the game by the scruff of the throat".

Hoop la la

 

[Confucius Say]

Lonergan (9) taken out and Lolesio not offside. Get behind last feet

 

[Up the Guts]

How is that a penalty?

 

[molman]

Thank god.

 

[Marce]

Bravo Ponies! The first victory against Kiwis. Something is something

 

[Up the Guts]

Made hard work of it but they’ll take confidence from getting it done.

 

[Dan54]

Geez I thought that would've been Brums ball. Collapsed maul, surely?

Is that the Justin Harrison was talking about, if it was collapsed maul it would of been a penalty, not sure why Justin didn't realise that.

 

[Dan54]

Brumbies well desrved winners, the only surprise at end of game there was only 1 points in it, Ponies looked a lot better.

Why? Mauls can collapse without infringement from the defending side.

 

[Confucius Say]

Never seen an Aussie team hit so consistently with shoulder tackle. No grabbing. Good effort and show what it take.

 

[Dan54]

O’Keefe “on field decision is try”
After seeing video
“We‘ll stick with on field decision of no try”

watch it back

I heard that, the touchie said it a try and then as you say he said we'll stick with decision. It was right call, but I noticed him saying that.

 

[Dan54]

Well he said that it was a tackle, so he obviously saw someone take it down??

Yeah, the maul got sacked, happens everytime a defensive team forces a turnover at the maul.

Weren't the words actually grab by the throat of the neck??? San and I reckon if games get quiet we'll just play remember the SGW quote (that is because he kept calling ALB -ARB Friday night.

No a maul can't be sacked once it called a maul. You sack a player not a maul!

 

[Up the Guts]

No a maul can't be sacked once it called a maul. You sack a player not a maul!

Fair enough re sacking.

But you can swim through the middle and force the attacking player to take it to ground, which is what happened.

Not what refs said, I thought it was sacked really well, didn't quite understand the problem.

 

[Dismal Pillock]

So according to the current table standings and points diff, if the Brumbies collect all 5 pts toda​

 

[TSR]

Well done Brumbies. Good to see them hang in there.

 

[Shiggins]

Brumbies the clear winner. The first 30 from the Brumbies and Nick white was out of control. If they can do that for 80 they will beat anyone.
