Stormers probably the strongest franchise outside of NZ, and they barely scrape through at home against the worst performing NZ. This format is a complete joke, NZ teams are miles ahead of anyone else and it makes for somewhat of a pointless competition til the playoffs
how do you just ignore the lions,the best sa team? they played final last year by beatin highlandrs and crusaders in the knock out rounds.seriously do some research before posting.
OK, the Lions have something, they were strong last year, but this year, to be honest, I'm not overly impressed (until this weekend, they were great) have they played an NZ side? and they lost to the Jaguares who are hot and cold. I'm not saying they suck or anyone is poor, but this format as it currently is tough to take seriously when there is 1 conference that is a clear head and shoulders above the rest. I get that some sides can occasionally step up, but it's not enough to bridge the gulf. But I have no solution, it's just crazy how good these kiwi teams are
Is that all u got K f. I don't need to know much, so i ll make a good SA referee!!. Exactly he wasn't held. That makes the ball in play. Why did he get sent off?
Now you can feel what it feels like when they ref is not good in your opinion. Reason why you do not like the ref is because he KNOWS the rules. Get over it.
the history of this game between all blacks and boks goes like this picture in the old days television was not readily available therefore when abs went to s.a they were dirty as fuck because the news was delayed via radio. pine tree meads or another mvp allblack had his jaw broken in a ruck was also the same in cricket bert sutcliff was struck in the head at a time when helmets were not available via a dirty bouncer that hospitalised the man another batsman stayed at the hotel because his wife died in a train accident sutcliffe returned to play and the man that lost his wife returned for a emotional last wicket stand what they know about that? they lost! but the often hardcore sa fans were in tears as was the gentleman that lost his wife while appoaching the crease. The kiwis lost but embedded what wearing the fern was all about. LEGACY!!! created!!!
No, truck and trailer is in the event of a maul where a separation occurs and a tackle is then prevented. ie An accidental obstruction due to the maul. No maul, so no truck and trailer. It's clear in the video that no player is bound to Notshe; he initially drives and comes up short, going down knees to the ground. We then see in the slow mo replay that he then lets go of the ball, gets off his knees, picks the ball up and drives again, getting over the line. As he released the ball it wasn't a double movement; as he wasn't on his knees when he picked the ball up (hand touching the ground doesn't count as on the ground), it's not playing the ball on the ground; as the players in the ruck didn't stop the Blues player from making a tackle, it's not obstruction. Therefore it's a fair try
okay lets change the angle then WHY ARE rugby players being EXPLOITED????? americans (NFL)dont do half the work of 1 rugby player so why do rugby players get considerably less?????
Whilst a great try ... 3:01 is a sheperd. When are they going to police it? He is ahead of the ball and takes out defenders. Almost as bad as that red card...like what??
What a funny game. Wasn't that short guy tackled then he started running on his knees. Then he went to ground when he knew he was going to be tackled. Duffie got sent off for tackling a dwarfed dwarf lol. Watch replay, he took two knees before he fell back on the ground. Duffie made a good tackle. You could debate he didn't use his arms. That was evenly matched, Colby had no legs!!Another poor display of SA referring and comentry, SAY NO MORE.
