Imagine being at a match at half time and your team is losing and some twunt is dancing around singing pop songs?
Only americans would put up with this sort of shite.

The half time show is almost as big as the game for some. It’s a massive big deal. But yeah, the whole production is as yank as it gets. The Aussies try to emulate to a degree with all their State of Origin coverage.crouchy wrote:Imagine being at a match at half time and your team is losing and some twunt is dancing around singing pop songs?

Anyway, I like JT. He was great in the Coen brothers Inside Llewyn Davis. Im amazed at what a slick production that was.

He would murder in rugby. Not to mention he wouldn’t have nearly as many injuries because it would be illegal to launch yourself at his knees.Kiwias wrote:He's a big unitRuggaBugga wrote:Commentators note gronkowkski has caught one pass for 9 yards.

Such a f**king weird rule. He caught it, hauled it in landed in bounds and held it even when he hit the ground. Whow gives a shit if it bobbles around a bit.

Yeah. He had "control" the moment he caught it imo. The tackler arrives on his back and causes him to starts falling so he has to move his arms not to faceplant.fonzeee wrote:One of those times where access to many angles of slow-mo replays really just complicates things more than anything.RuggaBugga wrote:Such a f**king weird rule.

Anyway, if you catch it and hold it after it's on the ground then who cares. Just a weird rule coming from a rugby background.

Really? It’s the style of game it is. Go and time from a league play of the ball to the effected tackle. Or from the cricket bowler release to the end of the play.

Gronkowski is 1.98m and 120kg, bloody hard to defend against.
