JWH: Just marking my territory.

The pop gun clearing kick is already a problem today.

JWH: Just marking my territory.

All with a cute little smile... just like my corgi when she quietly pissed on our neighbour's best Persian rug (and then my Mum's today while down at the beach house).

Wtf was that

[RoosterFanNZ]

Insane start ruined by horrendous defending

[Nigel Gaffey]

Brandon smith is at fault on that try. He’s gassed 6 mins in and put in that rubbish effort on the chase to that kick. Unbelievable ! Also Manu should make that tackle! Very poor

[Andrew Walker]

Awful defence on the edges

[PLV012]

thought the pass to su'a might be fwd?

[Davo]

Booring Booring, dragons to much flair. Willing to spread the ball stand in tackles. Robbo your response?

[ism22]

Can we get a replay of whether that guy had his shoulders on the ground and got touched before standing up and going 'BOOOYA... TRYYYYYY'.

Just saying. We do that and there's 100 replays of the possible tackle (multiple angles in slo-mo) with a black letter interpretation of the law being used. Was he touched while a shoulder was on the ground? Yes well then it's a penalty, isn't it...

Refs aside, there seems to be a pattern of soft defence when players are in try scoring positions (IMO that shoulda been cleaned up, just like the 2 winning tries last week).

[roosterchook]

Useless defense.

[PLV012]

unfortunately keary opened to door for lomax to spark their first try

[PLV012]

sloan knock on?

[PLV012]

wasn't sure we were going to get that call from the bunker

[ism22]

LOL see just as I said... look at them HEAVILY scrutinise Young's try and call it 'no try'.
