What really fucks me off is refs telling the players defending a maul they have to get out of it if they end up anywhere near the ball 9 times out of 10 even if they’ve got there legally.
GCT had every right to be where he was and could have changed the outcome of that try.
Blues hit back

Better than watching this shower of shite
Much better. Competed at the lineout and defended the maul.
Have lost the ref already. Parasols needs to back off.
What is it with Auckland based footy teams that makes them give away so many stupid bloody penalties?
Really, come on, how dumb do you have to be to keep doing the same dumb shit?

Spellcheck or deliberate?
@nepia said in Blues v Jaguares:
Might be the start of a form turnaround by Duffie?
Two weeks of decent form so far, and in the position I’ve wanted to see him at for two years now.
@stockcar86 I was thinking it looks a little laboured...at least he is playing more to one side rather than back and forth
@machpants said in Blues v Jaguares:
Jags get another penalty next, better be a yellow
So you’re asking the ref to be consistent?
You don’t want much do you?
Next you’ll want to see Elvis, MJ and Prince in concert together...

Goodhue very busy on defence there...involved in about 4/5 tackles in a row
He’s just gone down like a sack of spuds...
Wonder what happened there
Edit: forearm to the face.
Accidental yes, but if it were a tackle being made on him it’d be a card, why any different because he didn’t have the ball?

Don’t give them ideas. There is accidental head contact in almost every ruck.
gutted for him, he has looked very good this season, and more so in his 38 mins out there tonight.

True.
But my point still stands, a forearm directly to the face causing concussion.
Food for thought...
@stargazer it’s a shame,he was playing well,just wondered why the trainer did not pull him to the sideline given they were literally a metre from the sideline..
@taniwharugby both coming up I think
Great defence from the Blues, poor wet weather decision making from the Jaguares to finish the half.
