Re: Bledisloe 1: All Blacks vs Wallabies: MATCH THREAD: Saturday 27th September
How? Potter was the only guy there. If you wanted to be pedantic you could argue he had one arm on the ground. But ruck formed was just wrong. A ruck is not formed until two opposing players are engaged over the ball. Potter was the only one there. It wasn't even 50 50, it was just wrong. Yellow ca...

Re: Bledisloe 1: All Blacks vs Wallabies: MATCH THREAD: Saturday 27th September
Oh well. That's rugby for you. I'm not disappointed with how the Wallabies fought back but they're still a work in progress. Those massive leads they have to chase down just can't continue.
Congrats keewees.

If the Wallabies get in front, the referee will award the ABs an extra 3 for effort.

Re: Bledisloe 1: All Blacks vs Wallabies: MATCH THREAD: Saturday 27th September
These "momentum swings" seem largely referee driven tbh. Feels like he's now keeping the Wallabies in there.
There's so many little technicalities referees can pick on if they want to on either team and still "not be wrong".
