Wait, why the fuck were the Blues not allowed to replace Papali'i?!

Because they had used all their reserves, and you are only meant to come back on for bllod bin or head knock if you not a front rower!

^ AB 12 for mine (with AL-B 13, obviously ).

My thoughts exactly!

So, because of colossal Olympic-gold-winning level stupid reasoning? Gotcha.

Well to be fair , it's alwys been the law/rules. I actually agree with it, otherwise you go back to player being replace at 50 minutes, having a break and then someone else going down, so first one comes back on. F*** you meant to play 80 minutes if you not injured, so once you foff, you should stay off!

You Jafas always looking to take easy way!

If that were a thing it would be expected to happen more with props as the fatties are exempt. It doesn't. Ergo, we can deduce that it's not really an issue.

Fuck the props, get 1 of those waddling 42-minute shift puddingsharts back out there instead of leaving The Only Good Auckland Blue and Potential Heir Apparent To Sam Cane In The 7 Jersey to stagger around for 10 minutes on a broken leg like it's the Battle of Passchendaele ffs.

Don't kid yourself mate, it would happen. Before you could sub players how often did players get 'injuries' when they got tired or played shit? Don't care what any bugger says, once you off you should stay off, though I can understand why they make exceptions for head knocks or blood as players wouldn't come off. See coaches should get in habit of saving a player or 2 to cover injuries . F***en game is getting to soft anyway with being able to wander off when you a bit tired.

Jafas should get a bit of experience playing the game with the hard boys!!

"Razor here. Your Beloved and Benevolent Leader. This Friday it is on like Donkey Kong. The you-know-who's are coming to town. We hate them. They hate us. Let us join hands and pray for the usual ref calls to all go our way as per bloody usual. Let us pray for TJ in the booth to exhort his and our brave heroes onto greater deeds, his shrieking incantations piloting us through the choppy waters, the incantation of the red and the black, Blessed Be His Fruit, Holy Be His Mic. Blessed Be The Crusaders Logo Of The Duelling Dicks and Let The Power of Deans Compel You Forever And Ever Amen ok you can all fuck off now".
