I feel like had the pass not been forward Bierne might have had time to get low & get an arm in a position to wrap. Being such a big guy he might still have been too high to avoid a Yellow but might have done enough to take the Red out of the equation.

Does the fact the pass to Beaugan was forward have any effect? Could Bierne have argued he was bracing for contact with a dummy runner?

Second-best possible outcome (best being it not getting upgraded in the first place).

JBar diagnosed with both a high ankle sprain & a knee strain so returning to NZ. No word yet on ScoBar.

CruSadists have signed Ollie Mathis & Tribe CEO isn’t happy which is a bit pot/ kettle given they've recently signed coupla kids who were in the CruSadists academy. https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/360874789/crusaders-beat-out-chiefs-sign-young-star-oli-mathis-through-2027

ScoBar & JBar both ruled out of Scoutland match. Josh Beehre called up as training cover. Pretty much makes 4. Holland 5. Lord, 12. Tupaea 13. Fainga’anuku & 19. Darry certainties with 22 a toss-up between AL-B & Rieko.

FFS Beugan WTF was that? Maybe he & the NPC battler should swap teams @zer0?

Irish do play very narrow but sweep well so going wide from anywhere not always the high-% play it might appear to be onfield. Edit: lol Roigard finally snipes... and he scores.

Yeah, as Irish captain said, the forward pass left Beirne no time to adjust. Penalty only for mine.

Hurricanes responding to losing $2Mn in 2023 & 24 by once again restructuring ownership. A local property developer is set to become majority shareholder & chair with NZR also taking a stake: history suggests they'll sell or gift that share once things are back on track.

As above it's now listed on skySport 2 & I'm pretty sure it wasn't there on Wednesday so maybe a last-minute deal with the host broadcaster?

Can't find the game on the sky guide & now that I think about it I don't think I've seen it advertised. You have an nzr+ sub don't you @Dan54? Can you confirm they're showing it? If so I'll probably sign up.
