    Pretty typical one-eyed Cantabrian crowd. Cunts, the lot of 'em.

    Bet looking good now.

    ANOTHER FUCKING YEAR. NOT FUCKING HAPPY.

    It was bad enough that I had to go in supporting Auckland in this game......

    It's not even as if there are many players I like or particularly rate in this Canterbury side. Taylor and Bleyendaal are shunts.

    Can anyone tell me why when there's a 4 vs 1 overlap and the 1 deliberately knocks on and gets sent to the sin bin, why is that not a Penalty Try? Auckland would 100% have scored if he hadn't done that. The ref clearly agreed he'd infringed and there wasn't even another Canterbury defender in the picture. Cantabs pushed the off side rules to the limits and could easily have had a player binned for persistent offending on another day.

    The Ellis infringement/turnover was a bad joke.

    "No"

    "Yes"

    And the yes being said after he made the play and not before it.

    Never knew the offside rule didn't apply for Canterbury players.

    Still, should have put them away early, had enough chances.

    home town calls by the referee.

    Heef to acknowledge.

    I would have backed Auckland at home.

    2 lions supporters in that crowd...
     
  9. HeathDavisSpeed HT Davis

    Please, can some tell me why that wasn't a penalty try? Was there a legit reason, or just massive cuntishness?

    5 titles in a row.

    break them into two teams already. Cantabs (+ the zero players they get from tasman) are a super 15 side.

    Split Christchurch in half.
     
  11. Hurricane JD Hurricane

    The ref gave a crass performance. that is your explanation.
     
  12. HeathDavisSpeed HT Davis

    Bullshit. Just stop them poaching the best young players from other Provinces for a start.
     
  13. Athlai JJD Heads

    God is already trying to split Christchurch in half tbf.
     
  14. Furball G Furball

    Sounds like his decision making is spot on :p
     
  15. Rego RS Hutchinson

    Refs are too scared tbh.
     
  16. 99* JJ Ritchie

    Fuck you for taking my joke.

    Hearing rumours that Sherwin Stowers may be snapped up by an unnamed club in the NRL if he doesn't get a Super Rugby contract. Would be interesting to see how he goes - very dynamic player.
