Brumbies vs the BIL

[Crash Hamster]

Depends on whether the technical infringement caused the foul play- did the Lions blocker cause the Brumbies player not be able to compete in the air.

I'd say it doesn't as the player still had the option to pull out rather than compete. I've seen yellows for less.

Hey ho, we continue to prioritise player safety.

Very clever breakdown strategy for Brumbies so far, everything they see a back or lonely player over the ball they go for it.

Pretty standard strategy, but Lions are leaving too many rucks unsecured

Chessum going full luxury giraffe, goalhanging on the wing.

Good try

James Lowe, big boot, drink!

He's had a weird start, trying too hard i think, but that's incredible!

Geeeeeeenge!!!

And another officer. Too many players too over eager currently

If you've played with Ben Youngs...

No way Lowe fluffed that?! Turned his back and flinched?!

If he's not scored this he should literally be kicked out of the squad

I guess I'm on a delay.

Right, now he's gone over - why the hell didn't he dive low?

Poor, wasn't it?

Hey ho, we continue to prioritise player safety.

The way contested high balls have been refereed recently has placed a greater emphasis on abolishing blocking lines to allow a safer contest, so if there's a blocking line, referees are more likely to call that in these situations as it will be determined the Lions player would be at fault for causing the unsafe contest.

 

[dirty harry]

Even if finished, that's a disgraceful attempt to score, Alex Cuthbert esque!!!!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

I reckon he's scored it but the ref asked the TMO the wrong question so they might not give it

 

[AlRums]

AR was right on that

 

[Ferrari333SP]

Surely he downed it

 

[odw26]

Duhan would have finished that

 

[Aristodemus]

How did he not ground that?
