Congratulations Matt Goddard for ruining the game I love. To then go and talk to the captains about playing the game 'positively' was like tipping a **** load of salt into a gaping wound.
Should be sent back to coaching rippa rugby where he belongs. But he won't be, because the IRB likes to reward refs like these (isn't he supposed to be one of the best in the world?).
Other than that the Hurricanes went back to their hot 'n' cold selves and the Bulls gave everyone a lesson in winning ugly. What an absolutely **** poor excuse for a rugby match. I hope nobody had to go through the pain of having that as their first game experience.
The red card was the only definite sending off in my opinion, but it did look like an accident. I hope Conrad Smith is alright (although it doesn't sound like he is) because the Hurricanes back line fell apart when he left the field.
