Round 1 - Waratahs vs Hurricanes @ Brookvale - Saturday 16 February 2019

[Dctarget]

Surely that's obstruction anyway, was the elbow even from the ball carrier?

 

[Blackadder]

Tahs need go forward to allow backline to have room to fire.

 

[Dctarget]

Oi cant see the screen why was try overturned

Said ball carrier lead with an elbow into Hooper's throat.

 

[The Honey Badger]

Great tackle Foley

 

[Strewthcobber]

Hooper to the rescue again. Two trysavers in as many minutes

Said ball carrier lead with an elbow into Hooper's throat.

Wasn't the ball carrier I thought, was the driver. Driver position looked fine into contact, not ahead of the player. Just the forearm was too high.

And the Canes denied again.

 

[Ash]

Dempsey and Hooper off, Hanigan remains on. Makes sense.....

 

[Ash]

Latu has been really poor off the bench. The previous lineout throw was barely above the player's heads, then one not straight inside his own 22. Plus dumb penalties from continually attempting to play the ball off his feet.

 

[Blackadder]

Now hurricanes are in

 

[Blackadder]

Dempsey and Hooper off, Hanigan remains on. Makes sense...

Stupid decision

 

[Blackadder]

Best chance to beat the Hurricanes and the Tahs seem to want to shoot themselves in the foot

 

[Strewthcobber]

Hooper is still out there so something else happened at the interchange

 

[Blackadder]

Latu drops it

 

[Ash]

That was a bit soft in the end, the maul defence was not straight and he just went through the middle. Soft of felt inevitable. 4.5 minutes left to get back into it.

 

[Strewthcobber]

Holy hell, where did that scrum come from?

 

[TSR]

Awesome scrum Tahs. Talk about redemption.

 

[Ash]

Latu mistake turns into a huge scrum, Foley with a chance to win it now.

 

[Blackadder]

Foley misses

 

[Derpus]

Foley is going right to prison

 

[Ash]

OMG. Where is the face palm emoji?
