No, with his hand, which I saw, the TMO saw, and the ref saw.

Even I saw it.

Stopping the game for that

LOL

farcical reffing

I thought the TMO could only stop the game for dangerous play, not laughable minor incodents

Just ridiculous.

Who’s this Kiwi Phil Kearns we’re listening to?

The Waratahs are just really, really shit.

A girthy prop in full flight, majestic as fudge...

And, it's not working hard enough in defence that is to blame ... their attack is OK.

I know it’s only the Waratahs, but that Highlander maul is a weapon.

Nah, it's not. Even the attack is shit. Because they make a break and then do something stupid with the ball.

There’ll be a few red faces at the Crusaders tonight

Failing to put 100 on this shower of shit last week.

50 up.

Wow

SR Au only next year, I think

Anything else is cruelty

The part of James Arscott will be played by Timothee Chalamet...

That's inexperience, or possibly lack of skill/acuity

The shit defence is a result of blokes having poor tackle technique, and lazy ball -watching. Something a coach can work on. Starting with the mental attitude.

no its not its full of unforced errors

Tards are mentally retarded. Why the fook wouldn't you kick it out in your own in goal area?

Imagine the shame if the Highlanders hadn't put 50 on the Tarts

Who is going to be dumb enough to put their hand up to coach this rabble next year.

Aussie sides continually have one man rushing out of defence, which the kiwis, simply dodge and run thru the gap. Piss poor defence and organisation.

Hypotheticals are pretty useless.

What's the record for 45+ points conceded consecutively in SR?

Well done Clan.

Some really strong elements for them, including scrum and maul


Less said about my team the better.

When you cannot exit efficiently, what does that tell you? Lack of basics. Where do you start? Running without the ball?

They should introduce a ball to Tards training in 2024.

They left a couple of score out there, could have hit 80 with a little tuning.

Tahs seem to be going backwards... which I didn't think was possible.

It's times like these which make you start drinking shanky.

Results wise, the Clan couldn't have asked for any more. A BP win with a good points differential. Next week Frizzell and Smith return for a big one against the Brumbies. That could yet turn out to be a crucial game.

Its deeper than that these players have plied their trade in the Shute Shield. The standard there isn't good enough.

Fvck me I thought the Tahs were plucky in the first half but they were dreadful in the second half.

Deservedly rinsed.

Yup!

I can confirm I’ve started drinking!

... the only way to go mate... hic!

The Tahs are leaking an average of 8.5 tries per game so far in the trans Tasman. Ironically they are also the highest scoring Australian team. Has any super rugby team ever had a worse defensive effort? I’m pretty sure not even the Kings in their brief stint weren’t nearly as bad. It use to be that 4 tries was considered a bit of a blowout. The Tahs are rewriting record books.

It's not quite the worst defensive season in SR history, but it's getting mighty close.

Had a quick look and the worst is the 2016 Kings, who averaged 45.6 points against per game. Then the 2002 Bulls who didn't win a game, conceding 45.45 points on average.

Next is the 2010 Lions who also didn't win a game, conceding 45 points a game and the 2018 Sunwolves with 44.7.

Tahs are in the ballpark though, combining AU and Trans Tasman they're averaging 43.1 points against. Just Trans Tasman and it's 56.25.

Ive heard that at their headquarters at Daceyville they have installed turnstiles for tackling training drills

I've heard that when tackling practice is mentioned, they all just slope off to the pub...
