Cheifs v Force in NZ...

[andrewg]

When did they stop having neutral refs in super rugby?

Two different interpretation sin place for the breakdown with the Chiefs able to lie all over the ruck, past the ball with arms on ground and all considered OK?????

Here we go, and the ref again! Have a look at tapuais try and tell me in the counter ruck who was on their feet from the force. Also have a look at DHP with arms on the clean out before penalty kick for goal. Give it s rest! Chiefs are showing the force how to create with skill and footwork, as I said last week. Let's hope DHP is picked for the wallabies becoz all he has got is a kick and nothing else.

2 or 3 years ago.

What forward pass?

[Alison]

All par for the course for the Force unfortunately.

When you create a turn over don't kick the fucken thing back to the most attacking side in the comp. Just plain out fucken dumb.

Someone please make the changes we've got nothing!

Is it normal to have all four refs kiwis though? Doesn't seem very fair

[jargan83]

What the fuck is the point of an up and under kick on your own 22?

[JediKnight]

Refs/officials aren't making a difference in THIS game.....Force are contributing to their own downfall....missed tackles, losing ball in contact, kicking ball out on full.....

I'd rather have these 4 Kiwi officials most weeks in place of the Aussie muppets we seem to get most of the time.

[Alison]

The inate skill and deft handling involved in the last two Chiefs tries is something we can only dream of. We just cannot match the skill level required in this competition it seems to me. No amount of coaching is going to change that.

How many tries do we have to be behind before we get some subs on, even though it won't really help?

SANZAR ditched the neutrals to save on cash. Fairness is probably debatable given Refs, regardless of county of origin are always under the spotlight these days.

Also to be fair the Refs aren't really at fault in this game. Let's just keep kicking to one of the most counter attacking back 3 in the comp.

[whodunnit]

Well someone tell me if that is good decision making by the force!!!! Kick again no chase. Centres too fat can't can't chase , can't keep up with line breaks, can't tackle. See you later foley and all! The Chiefs are the team who has travelled around the world and the force have travelled 4 hrs up the main road, they probably flew! Highlanders next week!

Sigh make the pain stop!!
